Well that camera does seem to like the close attention of a lunchbox (it cant get much closer than that.)

it works well, if you put it flat againat the body you get a shot right down the side of the van but slightly angled however if you pad it out between camera and body with a nice bit of foam its perfect. dazza is borrowing this shell for the lb race, should leave the camera on it! anyway, hope the national grid is ready cos the big battery charging process is about to begin. decided tmw on the hilux racer (about 95% confident in the diff), the DI seems to be running properly again after recent brush and spur gear issues and the vanessas hamper. remember its xmas so they aren't lunchboxes at the moment :(

i've got a novak velociti 5.5 in my T4, only recently discovered it can take 2 cell lipo so i'd like to get one soon. unfortunately being unemployed means that is difficult, a wiser person would say sell some cars. i don't think so....

see you tomorrow anyway midday at the fort.

see everyone who is coming tmw, i also think there will be 3 or 4 video cameras there so plenty of video to nose at over the hols

are onboard cameras allowed within the rules of festive hamper racing? i should carry it really all the action will be in front of me but most of it will probably be upside down!! you don't have to drive with it on its ok, its only held on with zip ties. everyone ready for later? word of warning, its very wet down here today so dress (your cars) accordingly...
