Yes, all off, it kicks and I don't want to wear the pads more than I have to.

 

I am loving my RA1's...glad to be back on them. R888 are not as bad as some make them seem but the RA1's are better.

Toyo is no longer making RA1's in our sizes. Where did you find them?

 

I really did not like the R888, as soon as the thread is gone they cord, while the RA1's are good from beginning to end with little difference in performance.

 

Start a thread about tires. You bring up some good info that I know little about. Have tracked my GT2 many times, gonna start my RS, but I'm tired of eating up M Cups to the tune of $2k every time. Is there a better solution, tire, etc? Looking for some good advice here.

Thanks for posting, can you put a wide angle lens on your camera, it would be cool to see your inputs...

 

So many varieables, but I think if you can still find Toyo RA1 or Nitto NT01 they are probably the best bang for the buck and you can drive them to the track.

Track only tires, I only know Hoosiers and Slicks (Michelin / Yokohama's) as alternatives. The slicks need a more aggressive setup, ideally much more camber and stiffer springs...

 

Its a Go Pro HD camera. I cant put a lens on it. I'll be getting a trackmate soon though

 

Any experience with these tires?

Call David Tuaty for install in Miami. Just tell him you want what I have for Traqmate and HD cam.
BFGoodridge, heard both good and bad, but don't remember details. If cheaper then RA1 worth a try.

 

I think I met you at the event Saturday. I was in the black C6 Z06 #74 which might have been the car in your video.

I started a thread on another forum looking for input on the Go Pro HD Motorsports Camera. How do you like it as far as picture and sound quality, ease of mounting, editing, battery life, memory, etc.? The video looks pretty good and sounds good also. How did you mount yours?

Thanks for posting the video.

 

Hey....

Yeah, you had the black Z06 with the wing and motons,522 whp etc, etc, etc. That car is a monster

The Go Pro HD is a great little camera, for what it does. I got 2. I paid $230 shipped for each. Retail is $299, I think. It includes the mounts, etc, except the memory card. Aside from the track, I also use it for side-byside runs; when I take out my boats; jet skiing or other outdoor activities. They can be tricky to use, if one does not read the manual. I went to a 1 mile top speed event, and when I'd set it up to record video, it took pics. Didn't find out until I got home But great overall all camera. I wouldn't want to use my other $1000+ camera to do the things I do with these It can be mounted inside, or outside the car. Inside, I mount it on the windshield.

It comes like this ( ):

There may be a 6speedonline forum sponsor that sells them....

 

Does anyone ever give you a hard time at the track regarding the suction cup type mount or is that pretty much considered OK everywhere? You think it would stay put in a worst case scenario?

Thanks for all the info. I think I'm going to order one today.

 

I've only had it since bought the car this year (January), and only been to a couple of track events, but it seems to be the main camera equipment everyone runs at different track and other car events. The equipment in which the camera mounts, is very well made. I know people who have put it outside the car using the suction cup set up, and doing 150-200+ mph runs; it holds like glue. Knowing how tight it feels to the windshield, when installed, I'd think it would hold in worst case scenario. When installed, it cant be taken of by just pulling on it. It kinda has to be unlocked....

 

Finally 2:20's:
