Re: Greatest 6er POV Video Ever!…
Amazing long stint of flat out high speed driving. Not sure I would want to be along for the ride though.Great video, but I think the Cunningham BMW video of the '89 La Carrera classic may be the best POV ever. https://youtu.be/e5YxcDAB3JE?si=-8gwjs7V1QQjrBq5

Re: Favored Part Suppliers
Depends what you're buying and weather you want OEM, aftermarket or modified/motorsport.
