Too Slick

AWWRRIIGHT!!!--That thing is cleaner than a Safeway chitlin'--no flies on it anywhere that I can see! How about giving us some details on the history and construction of the car? It obviously is well thought out and straddles the line between vintage and pure race car, right?

Can you please give some more info on the recorder system? I usually just mount a mini dv camera and would like to get a recorder set up like yours. Can you run more than one camera at a time for different angles? Have any video you'd like to share with us.

Fernet Branca is a bitter, aromatic spirit made from of over 40 herbs and spices, including myrrh, rhubarb, chamomile, cardamom and saffron, with a base of grape alcohol. The recipe is a secret, and was created by the young Maria Scala in 1845 in Milan. Scala's name became Maria Branca through marriage, and the product's name was born. The Fernet Branca is still produced in Milan by the company Fratelli Branca, overseen by the Branca family.

Fernet Branca is usually served as a digestif after a meal, but may also be enjoyed with coffee and espresso, or mixed into coffee and espresso drinks. It may be enjoyed neat at room temperature or with ice.

A mint flavored version of the Fernet Branca, the Branca Menta, is also available.


Hi Lowmileage - I am impressed, from what I understand this herbal wine is having a re-newed intrest around the world as an after dinner liquer or mixed with coke cola. In the past it was used for medicinal purposes and hang overs and such.

John

The recorder system uses is analog Sony 8mm recorder with a seprate camara by Race Cam and it has been bullet proof and I have been very pleased with the video quality and sound. But it is analog and I have been for years just viewing or transfering to VHS tapes. If any one knows if there is inexpensive way to transfer to digital format for video clips would be great. For more info you can contact Craig at Northeast Microelectronics 201-794-9766
