To elaborate: It had a distinct flavor that reminded me of the smell of crap.

I was noticing the trans mount flex during shifts/acceleration in the early part of the video. Then the camera position changed. Does that appear to be a standard 914 mount and would the solid 911 mount be more rigid?

Thanks for the video. That was interesting.

I was noticing the trans mount flex during shifts/acceleration in the early part of the video. Then the camera position changed.

The GoPro was mounted on a strong magnet. Mine came from a dial indicator setup. The base portion has a M8x1.25 thread. So I welded a small bolt to the bottom of a plate and threaded that in place. Then used one of the GoPro stick on mounts. I also drilled the plate for a backup safety wire so I wouldn't see the GoPro bouncing into the gutter out the rearview mirror.

For this video I just stuck the magnet to my muffler, and under acceleration it just shifted backwards until it hit the raised edge.

Does that appear to be a standard 914 mount and would the solid 911 mount be more rigid?

The 911 mounts are supposed to be more rigid. I might have to do some testing. >:)

Also loved the tin knocking sound at the very end. Things falling off?

Exhaust cooling contractions. The catalytic converter on your newer car makes the same noise as it cools off. I've never heard my 914 do that until this video, so it's rather quiet, except on the video.

Never seen how the suspension works. It'd be fun watching a big pair of slicks under corner load.

Definitely Randal. This opens up a lot of fun options. Rob (ConeDodger) and I just bought a chassis to build a race car and after this I can see welding in camera mounts in various locations for diagnostic and research purposed. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)
