Hi All,

When on the track do deploy the rear spoiler or let it do it's own thang?

 

I just let it do it's own thing.

 

I used to manually set it "up."

 

let it do its own thing...

 

just had a 2 day track event..........it did it's own thing........

 

If I remember I'll manually put it up but with so many other things going on before you hit the track I often forget.

 

So true! Last weekend I left my V1 up on accident. I didn't even realize it until I got ready to go out again. It held up well, lol.

Related question... I know you can manually raise/lower it before it auto-deploys... but can you lower it (manual over-ride) after it has automatically deployed?

No points for saying "brake until speed goes below 45" or something like that... assume speed constant over 75mph. Thx

 

Curious as to why, unless you want to try to fool knowledgeable LEOs?

 

How did you mount your camera in the 996?

 

Just the go pro suction cup mount that came with the camera. Works great.

 

On the back window? If so did you use a different lense? Because when I mount mine in the back the view appears to be further back than yours.

Your view almost appears as if it's from a harness bar.

Hitting the track tomorrow which is why I'm interested.

 

Ya the gopro hero 2 has different settings for wide or narrow angle! For this I used 1080p with I think the middle setting for camera angle. Check your settings and you'll see what I mean. I also used the spot setting that adjust the brightness ( or white balance or whatever) to the light outside rather than the cabin.

 

Interesting. I have the Hero 2 as well so I'll give this a shot tomorrow. Thanks!

 

I use 2 Hero (1) models. Suction cup mount on rear window works well; best to put the camera into upside-down mode and use it that way. Trick is to keep the arm as compressed as possible (e.g., bent vs. straight) in order to minimize vibrations. FYI, suction cup works well just about anywhere ... I've had it all over my car (glass, body, etc.) at up to 125 mph with no issues. What a great product. The beauty of multiple cameras is multiple angles: . With two cameras you can move them around the car, then edit together angles from different run sessions.
