#7 They both sound great James! Nice Incidentally, what's the noise suppressor? I might need to keep something like that handy. Now mine has the PPE 225 mod it's a bit noisy

#6 Yes, it's upside down David! I find it stays there that way. Sometimes, if it's mounted the 'right' way up, the weight and good ole gravity can cause it to droop down. 'Hanging' seems to be more stable — although to be fair, the Smallrig mounts I use are rock solid. You can just about see the mic port , although it's a bit dark isn't it. At how it's plugged in.--Mark

You'll that's what I do David — run the car power into the GoPro via the media mod

Revs at 70 sounds about the same as my R400 with 6sp

Hello folks, I put a wee video together explaining how I do the audio in my Caterham. Hope it's of help to some. --Mark

John… "They are mounted to your side-screens at 3 points, not 2. That’s 150% better!"* (I'm not about to debate the maths in that claim, it just made me chuckle, that is all)

I had exactly the same thing Dan R… /forum/techtalk/gearbox-oil-leak-concerning It did turn out to be a seal on the gearbox, which has been replaced now and no longer leaks. Diff now leaks though Can't win 'em all, eh.

Ha, love this thread! I only bought some of the Protrustsolutions mirrors last month and already they're being held together with duck tape Rubbish. Motomec ordered

#23 That is mega @DanRo! I'd not seen it before. Thoroughly enjoyed watching it

krisfl - if you can still Bootcamp the Mac you could run Assetto Corsa on a Windows partition. That's exactly how I started (before the sim racing bug took hold and I bought a dedicated "rig")

What a great memory to have Rog!

Yup, totally that I'm sure I once read in Evo mag that Dicky Meaden learnt the Nords on the PlayStation It's just such a bonkers place. Even though the straights are purgatory for a Cat I still loved my time there this year, and I'm still dead excited to go back. --Mark

krisfl- computer games are your friend Get a sim on your computer and get practicing. Honestly, they're so good these days I put a 8m20 down in the Cat on only my third lap IRL. I knew the place so well even before turning up. Plus, loads of instructors there to help you. I'd say it's even easier than a race circuit, because you can just drive it like a mega B road, with no oncoming traffic.

*Looks up pyrometers, goes down new rabbit hole*

It looks like somebody caught your little off from behind John… https://youtu.be/5tIvCStyVNw?t=97 *edit* Actually, is that you? I can't recall if your car has a stripe down the back like that. Popular corner for overshooting

I'm just making a short video about my sound setup - a lot of folks have asked about it on the YouTubes in the past. The secret is a lav mic under the edge of the dashboard

Ha ha! It actually looks pretty good in timewarp mode I stuck together too.Mark

Good to meet you at Anglesey John! We should've discussed this thread :) I *might* be doing Spa in November. Opentrack have a two dayer I was eyeing up. Not decided yet. --Mark

Excellent, will keep you posted too John

Magic! Thanks Rich.

Ha! What a list Rich, that's some escape time you've put in Quick question on the LED bulbs in the fuel and water gauges - simple upgrade? Where did you source parts from? Thanks! --Mark

Neat interaction with RaceChrono and GoPro… https://racechrono.com/article/2753

I must confess, I hadn't noticed what section the post was in If you're just after something for analysing a drive in the champs Justin, then maybe a phone you already have is the best/simplest option? For attaching to the car, securely, how about a PeakDesign phone holder with a SmallRig clamp. For analysis on-the-cheap you could do worse than RaceChrono (17 quid, IIRC, versus the 59 quid for the GoPro option mentioned in #22). If you want to get better GPS data for a more accurate view, I'd recommend splashing out on an external, bluetooth, GPS device like the SkyPro XGPS160. It works seamlessly with RaceChrono. Heading more towards vbox territory but without quite the horrendous price tag, is it worth looking at the Garmin Catalyst? (never used it, couldn't tell you if it was any good).

#10 Re the current GoPros and 'Hypersmooth' stabilisation, you can turn it off, yes. It makes you feel sea sick watching it swing from side to side, doesn't it? With a decent mount (I use SmallRig clamps) it's solid without Hypersmooth on. , GoPro 8, no stabilisation.
