Made my first SWest inspired ride-along video using my cell phone camera.  It worked better than I expected...

Pretty good. I'll have to try my ell phone cam too. I'd like to hear her RIP on the wide open HWY. 

Watch out for Smokey.

I needed to position the RAM phone holder so the rubber grips could rest against the gauge cases for support, otherwise the phone just bounced and shook all over the place.

SMOOTH! Sounds like an Indy Car and shifts like your using Paddles on an automatic.
