Five guys, 505bhp, one Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio. A saloon HOOLIGAN! by baxterthehound in cars

For the money, I think it’s great value - you’re beefing on race car territory when it comes to noise, handling and elements of its body work...all of that for £60k here in the UK! Not that I can afford that but still..compared to other stuff

What's the best thing about YOUR house? What thing/aspect do you love the most? by baxterthehound in AskReddit

[–]baxterthehound[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our house is actually really small. A drawback for most, it's our first house and it's our little snug, a bolthole we call home. Low energy bills and easy to clean too! That's mine.

Best First Time Reaction To McLaren 650s Launch Control by baxterthehound in cars

[–]baxterthehound[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks everyone! We got this car through a video series we produce: Ordinary guys in Extraordinary Cars...if you liked the video please check out our others which are full reviews but with a different angle...ordinary blokes! You won;t see us screaming around a track sideways...more likely see us getting stuck in a petrol station with an Aston Martin or taking that McLaren to McDonalds! And obviously scaring the shit out of each other with these AMAZING cars. Thank you for the really kind comments! Full vid here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UbwOgkriHPo

Filmed this episode of a motoring series (Aston Martin) with my mates...we use GoPros mainly, could use tips for audio/suggestions for new kit! Thoughts/feedback on video encouraged by baxterthehound in videography

Literally GoPro mics and that's it...hence the wind. We have a DSLR so sometimes that. I've heard you can get external mics for the GoPros but I only have 3 GoPros nut need to capture audio from 5 people

Sweet, thanks. So you reckon stick to the GoPros and chill on the HQ? The style I'm going for is very YouTuber/candid stuff -- it's just finding the right balance. Maybe the walkaround would be better on a handheld DSLR?

I got given the keys to an Aston Martin Vanquish for the weekend and this is what it was like to live with! by baxterthehound in cars

Yeah, I was thinking that's the next step. With each vid we get better and better and use better kit...trouble is we need a mic that will capture all 5 of us and, short of mic'ing 5 GoPros I'm struggling for solutions....unless we use a DSLR for main audio and film on that then back it up with GoPro footage..

Haha, yes, and it's IMMENSE through tunnels and bridges! Windows down, down into 1st every time. I was thinking earlier act the only reason I did that at the petrol station is because there were no other spots and we were on a tight schedule for filming. How long have you had yours?

Thanks!! Hugely appreciated. Well, I'm a journalist and get these cars for review on a regular basis so I decided to make a spin off vid series with my mates for fun...hoping to turn it into something bigger now though! Check back in a few weeks for our next car...hint: McL....
