    Silly question but are sliders painted flat black or semigloss? I would think flat

    Who says they need to be black?

    Honestly use whatever finish you like. It's gonna scrape off anyway.

    I thing the POR15 I used is semi gloss, but it's worn in now, can't really tell.

    I'm using older BlackVue dash cams and like them allot. Have 64fb cards in them with no problems.

    Just remember to make all of your region and time adjustments in the software on your computer before putting it back into the camera as your timestamps will be off.

    First I'll start with bbq. My favorites are sugar fire (closest to t&c is valley park location) or super smokers in eureka.
    Sugar fire has some awesome brisket.

    I work in town and country and live pretty close. It's a very nice area. Very low crime, and predominately upper middle class in that area.
    Being in that area I'd also suggest you check out Gulf Shores off of olive blvd. The best damn Cajun food I've had.

    Sorry, but you haven't had good Cajun food if that's the best you have ever had. :cool:

    Sugarfire is good, but nothing beats Pappy's ribs in STL.

    I haven't been to n'awlins since I was 9. So there's that. Guess I should say in missouri. That place is damn good. Don't knock it.

    I've never had pappy's, but I was saying sugar fire is great for the brisket.

    Time to trek back to South Louisiana. Prejean's in Lafayette is a good suggestion.

    Try dashcamtalk.com or something similar, just like there are Tacoma maniacs, there are dash cam maniacs too.

    I'm still running 2 USB web cameras hooked to a laptop as a dashcam & rearview cam. I'd keep it that way but the video quality sucks and I can't find an app with the recording features I want.

    Don't be knocking Gulf Shores. I like that place. Plus right next to it is LaSalsa and that's a damn good mexican restraunt. Not as good as La Hacienda but close

    Best Mexican restaurant in the St. Louis area is right on the East St. Louis border but just inside the west side of Fairmont City just off of Old Collinsville Road. You will see two places with Spanish language signs across the street from each other and the one I'm talking about is on the east side of Old Collinsville Road. Walk in and then left and to the back. When we used to do club racing days at Gateway International raceway we'd run over there for awesome food that really made me miss my time spent in Mexico. They have fixed it up allot since then and even added a bar.

    Try the street tacos and the Torta, my favorites from their menu.

    Tienda El Ranchito
    2565 North 32nd Street
