Eugene,

How did the camera hold up to the track conditions? The quality is really good.

Here is a POV1 I had mounted at HPT a few weeks ago. I was hesitant to mount it on the outside of the car, not knowing how the camera would take the abuse of flying rubber, etc. Your video is much clearer not having to shoot through a dirty and wet windshield.

Doc I put it in the where the passenger foglight used to be. I figure it would take a "Skywalker/Force" driven direct hit to nail the camera lense. The low angle is not so good for learning the track or lines, but quite fap-a-licious in terms of sense of speed

I think you are on to something I'll try that location for the next event!

Yes great angle. It would be good to get some other footage and edit that together so you'd have some varied angles. I tried this recently and it was better than the usual 1 angle video.

I think it is a Greddy or HKS. The thing is purple anodized if that helps. It came with the rest of my ebay acquired SFR hardpipe system
