It's a fujifilm S5000 mate, but the real beauty is the camera mount made by Cullmann - it's awesome, will be great for track days :thumleft:

That is a superb video Mr Rowey. Easily the best amateur (?) video footage of an MR2 that I have ever seen - 10/10.

One interesting point - note how little wheel turning is necessary to get the car around fairly sharp corners. The Rev 2/3/4/5 power assisted rack vastly improves the car's dynamics and driving pleasure.

In comparison, the Rev 1 under-geared manual rack is bloody awful, despite what Highwaystar will say! :D

very cool.

bit to many sped up shots, but other than that, really good.

maybe some car sounds in there?

Cheers for the comments peeps.

It's the first time i've really had a go at anything like that, so I was quite pleased with it :D.

I wanted to get some engine sound in there, but the mic on the camera was picking up too much wind noise and it just sounded pants :-k

I have some track footage, so might try and do something with that next :thumleft:

....on a different topic, how do I get an image to appear under my name...the avatar thingy??

You need premium membership (£7.50 a year)
External mic with a foam cover should get some good sounds.
