Default Project RS3: Rod bearings broken in, new windshield....time for a morning jaunt

Hey folks...

This is just another little test of the cam mount now with the new windshield in place. Quick vid, but I also rev the engine out a little past 6500 rpm. Sounds great and appears that the exhaust has mellowed a bit. Not nearly as "barky".

One thing I am going to enjoy on the track are the shorter gear ratios from the S2 transaxle. It really keeps the motor in the power band.

Enjoy. In the meantime, I am impatiently waiting for the 1st event I can work into my schedule.

What do you have the camera mount attached to? It seems like when I had my mount in the car on my redline rollbar the camera isn't as far back from the windshield as yours is. I like the picture angle of yours much better as the mirror is in the middle of my picture.

It's attached to the roll bar. The wide angle lens really helps to improve the viewing angle.
