 Cool gizmo for the racer crowd, but would it work? |

Saw this and was wondering if it would be too low to record anything worthwhile. Its a cam mount for a turn signal lens.

Look under products, no pricing online. Maybe buy 2 and then install a lasar for cool turn signals. Geoff |

that's pretty cool! but I have to ask the same question... are you supposed to duct-tape a laptop in the front trunk or what? if you do, I wouldn't expect that hard drive to last long!

I'm guessing it's for a standard Camcorder or mobile VHS recorder?
I already got a tiny camera to mount to my rollcage (or wherever I want) and connect to my DV cam which will be in a padded box. The view out of the front edge of the car might be pretty cool though. |

Thats a lens replacement that holds a lipstick cam
You plug that into a camcorder.. Its very cool. When I set up video in my car I like to use the windshield as the "frame" of the picture, and try and catch the gauges or my hands. this is kinda tough in a 914, in my 911 I can mount my cam farther back. Dont know about capturing sound with it? |

There was an article in the Nugget, PCA newsletter, where a driver mounted the microphone to the rear bumper of a 911. He said the sounds where great. You could hear every shift etc. If you are going remote camera might as well get the best sound too.
