The bar doesn't need stickier tires to work, either. It'll help you make the best of whatever tires you have on.

Sweet. The quality of the GoPro seems great, except maybe for their promise, "You’ll only be hearing the sounds of your sport, not the howl of the wind." I guess you can't expect miracles from it mounted on the windshield though.
Does it offer 1080p as well?

Save up for the new tires. You'll need them soon enough:

As for the car, I have 2 weeks until the next event, hoping my tires don't end up like the ones above! Though, SCCA Hawaii runs don't get to reach high speeds (barely into 2nd gear in some areas.) Star Specs will be my first mod soon enough.

you should record in R2 mode 720p. also the mic sucks on gopro. the sealed case doesn't help much either. the 960 format is ok to use but the aspect ratio is more square than wide as in 720 or 1080. also when you upload as 720 because of the different aspect ratio you may get distortion or degradation plus it chews up more space on your SD card. R2 is the ideal compromise for memory space and resolution

Thanks for the tips pixel, I just went with R4 as it's the default and it was my first try. R2 sounds like a better option though. Any suggestions on reducing wind noise? All the sample videos on GoPros website have little to no wind noise and you can actually hear the car. It's kind of frustrating.

you are welcome. I haven't been able to get good audio even with the enclosed case. you can check out my videos on http://www.youtube.com/user/koriblue. the only time I was able to get good audio result was when I used the open case but mounted on the rear bumper. this probably won't work for your autox purpose but I was able to get good exhaust sound from this setup. otherwise the whole audio thing is a bust for gopro.

Any corrections/suggestions welcome. I was considering putting it in a checklist style printable version at some point.

Are you sure about assembly pin removal in stock? It should be legal as it's cool on other BMWs and Minis, but you never know. I'm pinless already. |

What i'm wondering with the alignment pin...
I think that's just nitpicking to a certain degree. I'm pretty sure they still expect us to stay within the factory alignment specs, so pin or no pin we're supposed to be within .7 degrees. |

There a few cars (RX-8 for one) that have adjustable camber up front from the factory, so whatever you can get is legal. On many other strut equipped cars (current Civics for sure) you can, as per the factory manual, sub in "crash bolts" in the front and steal about a degree of camber. On our cars, the strut tower is already slotted to provide adjustment. The pin is there solely to assist in aligning the front struts during assembly . . . Need a TSB so we can all quit arguing about this :P |

See my last post here:
