Wohaa, nice speed there Leon!
How does the AWD (I recall you still have it?) handle the ripping starts?

10 years of experience and i have finally nailed it....I am now one with the gearbox the loss of 200kgs really helps BTW, i'm not technical enough to explain it though

Awesome work
I can confirm the kill on the main straight - you left him for dead big time, I was whooping like an over excited fool

Jean, they are starting this week and eta sometime in november...

p.s I'm going for a fixed mount on the harness bar between the seats, figured this was best option..

Yes the fixed ones are very good. I have one on my roll cage but got greedy and now want cameras all over the place Those suction cup mounts work very well. Anyway, here is the link if anyone if interested.

Leon - Wow, that is a rocket you have. Love to see additional vids from in your car.

I built a very simple camera mount that clamps to my rollbar and attaches to any non curved surfaces.
