    Hi mate, Have an alluiminum 2020 profile home made setup for the in-car gopro, (something like this)
    https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/263940291259?chn=ps&_ul=AU&norover=1&mkevt=1&mkrid =705-139619-5960-0&mkcid=2&mkscid=101&itemid=263940291259&targetid= 1741701787418&device=c&mktype=pla&googleloc=907195 0&poi=&campaignid=18278742238&mkgroupid=1415650581 12&rlsatarget=aud-1176408675345:pla-1741701787418&abcId=9301725&merchantid=114250120&g clid=Cj0KCQjwvL-oBhCxARIsAHkOiu0uoWUTouQ7ratHcu1gjAHUGJesJVvF2ah2M XOGujRAHjEWNLngLmYaAhUrEALw_wcB

    Thinking about moving it to just view the Dash. Nobody really needs to see the back of my head and washed out front window haha

    A Hero Session mounted on the bonnet via the 3M sticky, with the a secondary strap to hold it from being a missile if it comes loose, as required by MSA (CAMS)
    I edit it all in Corel (like adobe). I generally fire up both the cameras recording and then use the door shutting as my clapper point for syncing. then cut the footage down to just the burnout/stage and lap. I could use the inbuild wifi/bluetooth to trigger recording but.... effort...

    I'm getting a little more proficient with editing. Takes maybe an hour to slice it all and add the little jingle at the front. The latested day I forgot my internal camera mount so just ran the bonnet gopro and just cut it together in some windows freebie software on the laptop
    both GoPro's are fairly old. Like 2015/2016 spec units. They do the job.

    When I was living in the USA, i had Harry's Laptimer setup on some iPhones. Was a lot of effort to get it all going and synced. But was nice to have an overlay of data with TPS/GPS speed and data from the OBD2 port.

    Cheers mate. Hoping I can break sub 50.00's by the end of the year on the old Fed RSR rubber before I start looking for some new wheels and shoes.
    Any chance you'll be heading Canberra way in the near future?

    To be honest no. I'm aiming for the Tarmac twilight rally sprints at Eastern Ck. That'll realistically be my next run.
