    Coming in from Ohio

    I folks, rezin8 here. I'm popping in from (today) sunny Columbus, OH.

    Road trip setup on my 2010 BMW 335xi:


    Burger JB4 piggyback, Alpina 6AT Trans flash, Burger intake.
    Valentine 1 V1.85 w/ESP, Improved Euro Mode, Traffic Monitor Filter and Junk-K Fighter.
    AL Priority 4 head system (Just arrived today! Yet to be installed)
    Midland 75-822 Mobile CB Radio with Midland 18-2442 antenna
    FLIR PathFindIR system running into BMW Navigation
    Custom iPad mount for running Waze, etc.
    Garmin nüvi 3597LMTHD
    TomTom running TripMaster v3.1
    iPhone 6 running ALPConnect, V1Connection, Speed Tracker
    Custom Raspberry Pi based SDR system as trunking scanner and ADS-B ground station to find bears in the air (Coming soon, currently working out the bugs)

    Feel free to ask any questions about the setup or post any suggestions.

    I'm currently #3 on the records list for the NY to LA drive with a time of 31 hours, 17 minutes, and I currently hold the North/South transcontinental record, going from the Canadian Border at the Windsor Tunnel in Detroit to Pensacola Beach, FL with a time of 11 hours, 44 minutes. That drive was done solo.

    Welcome to the forum, and nice equipment. Can you prove you're #3 on the list? I'd love to see it if you can!
    One of the worst things you can be in life is blindly obedient to authority. It’s a forfeiture of your personhood—an acknowledgement of your nothingness.

    Here's the records list. Ed Bolian, the current record holder, also mentions me on his site, as does Alex Roy, currently #2 on the list.

    And thanks for the welcome. As far as wanting to see more curmudgeon, once I get the ALP installed and the Pi finished, I'll post up some info. I'm also throwing around the idea of adding an STiR+ antenna to the ALP. I'm just trying to figure out why it's less than half the price of a full system and what the difference between just the horn and the full system is from a protection standpoint.

    Neat! Now my next question is how did you do it?

    Full Sti-R Plus comes with a lot of components that are not needed if you just want to add radar alerts to your ALP. See this thread for an idea of what the install looks like.
