Thanks all, poor guy hasn't got a hope in hell of it not looking like a hacked up POS, even if he gets the dimensions right.

Picked this up for $50 last night, it's so much bigger than I need it to be.

I like this view but the wind noise is a bit much and it's a little distracting.

..except you don't have a windscreen?!

Sweet video, I like it! Your machine has some pace to it!!! (is that a pet carrier behind your seat?)

Haha thanks,

I have a gopro vid of my last run that's 15 seconds faster but be prepared for neck pain.

Pet carrier? People have said some pretty unkind things about our ROPS but I think that takes the cake!

:lol:

Could you mount the camera right at the nose so it captures the whole width of the car?

All the forward facing vids I took were with the cam mounted on the bootlid and couldn't see over the firewall.

I will work on some nice cam mounts, one front and one rear.

Looking forward to it. I wondered what was happening with your car.

Good to hear it. Shame about Boto Phucket.

I would love to do a 'miatakart', so living vicariously through this thread. Safe to say life's been a little slow of late.
