These roads look very familiar. That tractor trailer looks like Lineboro road , the evil tow truck looks like 795N and the other clips look like falls road / sparks maryland .

You are correct.

I see you are Hampstead, I used to live in Manchester.

What car events are in that area?

I usually just head to Hunt Valley for cars and coffee because Hampstead/Manchester and near there areas seemed to just have Honda fartcans and maybe some Mustangs, but mostly trucks rolling coal.

N54sk8r · 01-21-2018, 06:01 PM

You must be the original red zcp I used to see cars and coffee .
I bought mine the day after Christmas last year so you have a twin now . I work Saturdays so cars and coffee is hard for me to go to but I often go to Bimmerfest with my friends from York .

Yeah I'm not about to buy a $75,000 dollar diesel truck just to fit in Carroll county lol

I hit up Bimmerfest for the first time this past year, figured I might as well hit up some BMW events while I drive a BMW.

Agreed, worse is the trucks which (not sure how to describe it) are un-truckified. Like big trucks, with small wheels tires, basically all the function and point of a truck taken out of it.

Most times it looks like they online ordered wheels and tires and did not know their sizes etc.

N54sk8r · 01-21-2018, 07:43 PM

Hahahaha yes they all have the same wheels ! And stupid stacks .

If you go to any other events I may make the tail end of Bimmerfest if it's Saturday and Sunday but I'll be attending MPact at pocono raceway this year and I hope I can go to Panda junction at Ripken Stadium and maybe H2oi at ocean city .

If I take a Saturday off this spring or summer expect to see me at cars and coffee for sure ![IMG][/IMG]

I think this past Panda Junction was the last one at Ripken Stadium.

I noticed all the same roads as well lol, nice to see someone around here. I rarely see any M's in this area.

Same, never see an M car. I pass a bunch of reg BMW's on my route to work and I notice them double take like "oh that was an M"

Good deal.

I just use the computer program.

kscarrol · 03-29-2018, 04:34 PM

The app makes it easy to use. The one thing I can't figure out is the setting for how long to record. Came from the factory at 1 minute which I guess is fine but I can't adjust. It shows as an option but is grayed out...

Mine just records continually and breaks it up into pieces if that is what you mean?

That's odd. Mine has the option to set to 3 min etc. have you updated the firmware? I did that the day I installed it so maybe that's it?

Yes, that’s what I mean. Records continually in one minute increments....
