A vid of my car, on the 13:00 session. SC12 998 mini complete with its 40 year old hydro suspension. Vid take with one of those £15 ebay mini cameras, cable tied to the grill.
I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

Oh bad time oli i looked for your car but didnt see it, it doesnt need an ecu cover it needs a vtr inlet and throtel body and 1.4 injectors and ecu it does bloody well on track but needs a little more power, maybe a cheap vtr lump from the scrappy for fifty quid. Didnt see you on track though  On 15th Jul, 2009 fastcarl said:

no idea mate, it was the first time I have ever used it.. it was one of these, it comes with a bracket which was cable tied to the front of the grill and I just switched it on. The images are a little jerky, but for £12 you cant complain plus it get around the new no sucker mount rule... Its like this one... i got it from the uk for £12 I have seen them as low as £5 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/4GB-4G-Mini-DV-DVR-V...=item3cb10c2d46 By way nice car. I did take a trip up to the stand but no one was there. Got to say hello to Jimster and Nic. oh a drool over some force racing wheels. I got the same camera too (through recomendations on here i might add) mine was attached inside screwed onto my dash, picked up the sound from my induction, gearbox and screaming passenger quite well but my picture seemed alot more unstable than yours :( http://s156.photobucket.com/albums/t22/Dem...CastleCombe.mp4 David. |
