Shineyness in motion

I attached my digital camcorder to the outside of my Blackfired Alfa Romeo Milano racecar today... and I thought it was pretty cool to watch the reflections moving

Just a little different than the usualy still photo

Enjoy.. it`s a little over 1 mb

Cool vid

:up I hope that you were granny shifting though?

granny shifting... hmm... you could call it that

I was trying to avoid a sound violation ticket

I was shifting around 5500rpm (I usually shift around 7200rpm at the track)

glad you enjoyed the video :up This was actually just a test to make sure the camera wouldn`t fall off... I`ll post some video from Palomar Mtn and California Speedway when I get some more footage.

Really neat video... I like how you made that U-turn in the middle of the street too

I mounted the camera using the Hama suction cup camera mount (usually used INSIDE the windows

) The mount is attached to the outside of my passenger side rear window and is DOUBLE safety strapped to the rollbar incase the suctioncup were to let go! BTW, the tape you see in the picture is there just to prevent the clips on the safety strap from clinking around and making obnoxious noise... it`s NOT holding the camera up

Here`s a picture:

Steven,

I haven`t detailed the engine bay of my Milano yet... hopefully today. I`ll definitely post pictures when it`s done :up

mercedesfanatic,

Hey now... no illegal U-turns for me! I was in a left turn lane at a stoplight and it was a 100% legal U-turn
