Hi all

I'm looking for some ideas where best to place my GoPro.

Any of you able to post some pics of your current setup?

Thanks in advance.

Right in the middle, just rearward of the seats. A good view out the windscreen and you can also see what the driver is doing.

If you're asking about how to actually mount it then I just use a Pedco Ultra Clamp in various places on the car. This is the only picture I can find (not great)...



If you're asking about the actual best position, well lower viewpoints give a much better perception of speed but higher viewpoints give a "nicer" view really. I mucked around with different positions at Rockingham a while back for a direct comparison:

Got an external mic now too so you can actually hear the engine instead of just roaring wind which is far better...

I also use AIM smarty cam HD, a lot better than my previous go pro with a lot more information build in.
