Driving The Viper For The First Time In 11 Months

Posted on February 18th, 2018 by Alex Mills

It’s been 11 months since I’ve been physically able to drive my Viper, but yesterday I finally got the chance! My clutch pedal leg is sore today but it was all worth it.

I thought I’d make a video of the long overdue startup to celebrate:

Röyksopp — Never Ever ft. Susanne Sundfør

Posted on September 28th, 2016 by Alex Mills

Norwegian duo Röyksopp, one of my favorite groups, has a new single and music video out! It’s been nearly 2 years since their last original release so it’s great to hear some new stuff from them!

The music video is very weird and trippy but the song is awesome:

Autocross Video

Posted on June 19th, 2015 by Alex Mills

Last weekend I went autocrossing for the second time and I’m as hooked as ever! It’s such a blast, especially now that I have a 6 point racing harness in my car. It makes it a lot easier to feel what the car is doing as you’re held in very securely.

I still have a long way to go though — I see so many mistakes watching this video!

Ken Block is at it again. Last time he took a Subaru WRX STI offroad in the snow and this time he’s doing it in a Ford F-150 Raptor! Looks very fun.

About

Me

Hi and welcome to my blog! My name's Alex Mills, although on the Internet I'm more commonly known as Viper007Bond (or just Viper). I'm a Portland, Oregon web developer who works for an awesome company called Automattic (you've perhaps heard of our WordPress.com blogging website). I contribute to the open-source blogging software WordPress and have written quite a few WordPress plugins. I'm also a big car nut who is really into Top Gear and run the show's biggest fan forums. You can read more about me on my about page.
