Default Camera Mount Test for McRae Gathering

About 6pm Friday I decided it would be an idea to record my whole day for the McRae gathering.

Except I had nothing to record with and nothing I could mount something with.

Got a Sony Digi Cam and a weird sticky dash board mount and a 1gig card.

Then realised 1gig wasn't enough so got another 2gig card... failing again I bought another 2gig card and realised that i'd now spent near £50 on 3 cards totally 5 gig and the 8gig card was around £35

Anyway once sorted that gave it a test.

I apologise in advance for the dumpvalve, i'm young and like attention (even if it's purely dirty looks of discust)

I had all 4 windows open fully to create as much road noise as possible, basically wanted the worst conditions possible to see how it handled sound, went over bumps etc was 10 mins long the video but some of the content isn't suitable to host :biggrin:

Was pretty pleased, road noise is a bit loud but won't have windows open tomorrow and i'll cut most audio and have music playing anyway over the top.

Bit of Rick Ross or something

*Plays better if you click on the youtube link and below the video where it says 'views' it'll say play in high quality as it'll auto play in standard.

Aye, I was slowing down from around 1.50 though, pass the 30mph at 1.55 and at 2.05 the sign that flashes if your speeding 30mph comes into sight and as you see as I approach it between 2.05-2.11 it's not flashing (and yes it does work )

So yes technically i was speeding leaving a 60mph zone between 1.55 and around 2.05 but I was slowing down just through the gears rather than than brakes.

A 30mph zone is obviously a 30mph zone and therefore entering it at a higher speed is a speeding offence but I feel the police around here are not to bad and accept that people entering from a 60mph zone might not pass through bang on 30mph and except that providing effort is being made to slow down.

Sorry if it came across that way, where I sort of gave it 1/2 throttle in the 30mph though I'd slowed to 20mph prior to that.

I'd be liar if I said I didn't speed, I'm still harbouring the cost of doing so through insurance on driving ban for treble figures a few years back however, if I do speed it's 50mph zone+
