Default Camcorder Test :Incar 4cyl Cougar

Just got a new camera for christmas... was testing out a few things with it the other night.


The camera is a sony handycam hc20 with the optional mic attachment *$90* and the sound came out pretty well.

Minute long video compressed to under 10mb, so a little bit of the quality suffered. Also sony nightshot isn't the best **** around but I guess it works.


My SS is currently torn down getting a few things done to it, being a FM14 cam and 12 bolt, so I've been reduced to driving this...Girlfriends car...

2001 Mercury Cougar
5spd
4cyl, 125hp 130ft lbs
!rear bumper


It is horribly slow as you'll see in the video but eh it gets me from one place to another.

6800 rpm powershifts are fun tho no matter what you are driving, specially when you can get third gear to scratch in 125hp.

Theres a loud squeeking noise coming from somewhere in the car... the loud banging was the front tire breaking loose and the wheel hopping causing a bad vibration.. wow I love that POS.

Was that a "Check Engine Light" that came on halfway through the movie?
