Camera/Chatterbox Interface free to a good home
To record your dialogue with your coach or instructor, you need the I/O-Port Chatterbox-to-Camera interface. This interface allows you to record the Chatterbox signal into your camera via its external mic input.
Here is the I/O-Port desciption (with a sample recording at the bottom of the page): http://www.ioportracing.com/Merchant...gory_Code=CEI1
I found this capability invaluable as it preserved everything I was hearing, and helps me place the coaching into where I actually am on the track.
To say nothing of making up for my less-than-perfect retention of what I am hearing.
NOTE: this particular interface requires you to plug the camera into an external mic input on your camera (SmartyHD version 1 does not have external mic input capabilities, but the newer version does with the external mic harness, available from AIM dealers. Smarty non-HD also has external mic capabilities with an external mic harness).
PLEASE read the I-O-Port description of the connectors for your camera (in the above link) as you may need to get a camera-specific connector.
The Chatterbox side is for the so-called old style Chatterbox (NOT this one: http://www.ioportracing.com/Merchant...gory_Code=CEI1).
I am glad to mail this (no charge) to someone who will get as much value out of it as I did. U.S. only.
PM me if interested.
If this particular interface's connectors aren't right for your setup and you are a serious student of driving, order a new one with the appropriate connectors from I/O-Port. Best $65 I have spent on improving my skills.

Ahhhh....where was I when this was going on?! I look back at my videos with pros and try to remember what the hell they were telling me.
Definitely looking to get this as I plan on hiring a few pros this year and want to remember what they said.
