good video,can you tell me what camera you are using and mount,mine keeps wobbleing.

PAUL FISHER - 4/9/10 at 08:32 PM

Sounds great, looks like you could have done with another gear down the back straight though.

locoR1 - 4/9/10 at 09:48 PM

Its a 420 line bullet cam recording onto a DVR from China, it messed me about a bit so wouldn't recommend it.

Paul, could really do with a 3.14 (3.38 lsd fitted) that back straight seems to go on for ever, i was just backing of at about 110 instead of risking the engine, would be on the limiter half way down if i didn't.

Second video is uploaded, This is me taking Alan (afj) for a few laps, had brain fade on the first lap and braked way way to late

2nd VIDEO

Picture looks quite good shame about the wind noise, would be worth taking it apart and seeing if its possible to remove the microphone, then put it on a cable.

good video's. how do you do with the noise at bedford, thought they where quite strict on it.

also how is your bullet cam mounted? mine wobbles a lot a high speed

Mine just got through the static test limit was 101db mine was 100.7db but that's mainly due to it not running clean off boost, i did short shift past the drive by noise meters till near the end but it wasn't a problem flat out but my car is very quite being turbocharged.

Bullet cam is mounted using a jubilee clip with a brake connection welded to it tapped for a 6mm bolt see picture below

that mount looks interesting, will have to try something like that.
mine is an exhaust clamp with an alloy ring bolted to it which clamps the bullet cam. everything is bolted up solid to a point where i can't move it without a lot of force.
maybe it's to solid and wobbling due to vibrations that are being absorbed by your mount
