Hehe! Just be weary of ebay.. If you can try pick up..

I'm looking into doing a group buy on track cameras the same ones that VZSS had at the texi if anyone is interested.

Still finalising some costs. But they should be here before the track day for anyone to use.

Was it the "gopro" or something like that?

There's already a buy going for them on these forums, a guy in tasmania is doing it

I've got the gopro and their pretty good, but as a heads up, your really paying for the mounts.

The camera is not very flexible, but it's tiny and is not too bad. I screwed up the sound setting first time out and so got no engine noise.

The mounts though are sensational, and make it very easy to move it around. Safely attaches to the front bumper, bonnet, windows dash anywhere you want it. And it's weather proof.

As per usual I will be there with bells on!!! Support crew for the chris's.

Only wish i had a car... :wub:

Soon, soon it WILL happen.

To newbie's to Wakey... dont stress too much about setup, wakefield is very forgiving, just concentrate on braking points and hitting apex's at Wakey and you should hit some good times! If the Ceffie could do it, anyone can!! :banana:

PS. Anyone got a cheap car wanna sell me ;)

Bring your friends as passengers are welcome on the day.

Hey folks see the interest in cameras. I finally got to try mine out too and I thought it worked pretty good. I need to put some tape over the mic hole cause the wind noise is annoying but the video turned out pretty good.

Only other drawback is that it only comes with one mount so it would have been nice if they gave a couple.

Camera details: http://www.atc2k.com/

Footage from my car @ Wakefield 26th April:

(note I overlaid the info from my G-Tech RR in the video - the car pulled just over 1 G! whoohoo!)

These go for about $100 USD in the US and about $200 AUD here gotta love how everything is so expensive here. I shipped my from the US for about AUD $150 all up.

Oh, an no critics about my driving I know I have a lot to learn hehe.

Hmm.. the go pro quality seems a lot better..

I'm going to look into some different cameras. I like the mount on the go pro and the fact that the camera is in cased for scrutiny purposes.

Yeah, the mounting on the Go Pro looks superb. Keep the notice up if you get a group buy going. I might go for it to have a couple angles when running in the car.

The video conversion on Youtube also sucks. The native footage looks much better.

Oh, I get about 1 hr of video @ 30 FPS 640 x 480 mode on 2GB SD card. 2x 2500 mah NiMh batts power about that same time too.

I was looking at another digital camera that is 10mp and is 30fps the only thing is 1 no mount and 2 I don't know what it would be like with the vibrations.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Interesting that it has 2 to the USB stick. Are the ones to the USB stick different? Or labelled anything at all? Telstra 4G is Band 28 is the long range one you want, it's 700mHz. I'm trying to do some reading on the Cel-Fi stuff, but I can't find any decent info online that makes me feel comfortable being able to work out the sort of antennas we could get away to swapping it over to. The antennas I'm starting to do some stuff with at work, are a transparent antenna. They're designed to stick onto the window. Which means you wouldn't even have the antenna outside the car. Volkswagen have just started using the exact same types of antennas on some of their new cars (And from the same antenna manufacturer). But, RF stuff is a bit of a dark art some days, and getting it wrong in your car could make for a terrible waste of money trying to swap antennas :S

      What do you do with all the spares?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm not going to lie Duncan, Saturday and Sunday were pretty rough days. The sort of work I was doing would previously have ended up with me spending about an hour and a half chatting with Neil. Firstly about something I had a question about, and then both of us rambling off on tangents.  I think how Neil did things, and his attitude to getting it done is helping me in part to get this stuff done. Then I can actually do the things I enjoy more easily

      ER, HR bonnet question

      By RBjay34 · Posted

      Talked to another R34 GT-T owner, he said bonnet of his car once fell and slammed from full height because of strong wind at a car show and nothing was damaged or broken, so I guess I'm just overthinking some things but yeah, just making sure I'm not damaging the car anyhow cause wanna keep it for a long time.

      ER, HR bonnet question

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I would say 100% that it doesn't matter at all. I have an Al bonnet and I drop it sometimes, push it others. Have done so for 25 years and there's no way to tell that either has caused any problems (because there are no problems).

      yeah, a black 4 door HR, stock AT RB20DE. Was a pretty good daily summer car, it was kept in a garage during winter but previous owner was fighting rust so most of the car was covered with rust undercoating, the trunk, floorpan, it started to rust underneath so I thought it would be better to find other chassis that was taken care better and do rust preventions myself, at least I would know where keep my attention at. Plans are simple, enjoy the car as much as I can, mostly on summer of course, winter here is long and not kind to 90s JDM, I wanna keep it mostly stock like, I'm not a huge fan of GT-R look or any body kits so gonna keep it as metal as possible haha, something more balanced look wise and yeah, work on performance, I was thinking about RB25DET but 20DET actually feels fun, as long as it's reliable I think I might keep it.
