^^ from the 2nd video if you push back the passenger seat you can put the camera lower on the passenger side glass. It allows you to see more of your hands, feet, shifting as well as more of the track in the video. You can see the angle I use in my videos if that helps.

Thanks. This is my first ever time using the GoPro and laptimer app. My passenger seat is bolted down, so I can't move it. I may mount the GoPro more centrally next time, or use it for a PiP rear view.

yup...I have had an I/O port one for years. Just didn't use it this time because my roll bar is freshly painted and I didn't want to scratch it! It's hard to track a car and keep it nice...

my first time at Lime Rock Park with the Evo. was there once before a few years ago in a crx. fun little track and i would go there more often if it wasn't a 6 hour drive. best i could manage was 58.3 in TT4 trim.
