        Enjoy!

            I'll take a picture of it and post it, it's just something I made to clamp to the harness bar.

            Yes it was a gopro 960, but I just got a GoPro HD2. The noise was it rattling around in its plastic case which they are known to do. It wouldn't have been so bad but I forgot to put the skeleton back door on it. My car is really loud inside because of the lack of anything in the back. The exhaust and wind just resonates in there.

            It was a CRX with some sort of motor swap. It is a built race car with race tires. I was catching him (actually lapping him as I started first in that run group) up until that last couple of laps when my tires started to give away bad. At the next event I'll have race rubber and it will be a whole different ballgame!

            Yes sir, that was all done on 185/45/15 Nankang street tires with a tread wear index of 480! Just to put things in perspective, my new toyo Proxes R888 track tires have a tread wear of 100. My fastest lap was a 1:11 which is 2 seconds faster than the Miata race groups fastest times (and they are on R compound tires!). Needless to say, the Festiva caused a bit of commotion. lol. I've been working around the clock to get things dialed for the next event at the end of this month. Should be able to get some great video too.
