Recording issues at track

[gone_n_60]

I too run a stereo mic with foam over the mic, inside a windsock, inside a 3d printed case. I also just throw it in to the trunk by wedging it into the foam as well sometimes. Audio quality is much improved, but I can still blow out the high end of the audio sometimes when using the external mic placement leading to pops in the audio.

You can see the 3D printed mount here above my license plate

Mic inside in the trunk


Mic outside on the bumper - you can hear the cracks when the audio blows out the mics.

Geez they let you folks drive in shorts?? Is that SCCA Autocross?

Yes. I also drive in shorts during the autocross series with Atlanta Motorsports Park and the downforce battles at Lanier Raceway with Caffeine and Octane.

Yes

Wow up here in the Midwest we're happy if they let us run in short sleeves in July. I see your in GA tho. I do HPDE so maybe the autocross being single car at a time vs. run groups they're less concerned about it.

Safety rules between track day events and autocross are not comparable in the slightest.

I run track days in a shorts and a T shirt, as well as AutoX. The rule varies by the club.

I don't like doing it, but when its 110 out, I am not trying to run PB's, and the groups I go with all have the same mindset. Summertime is for driving mechanics, fall-spring for going fast.

My event this weekend will have more substantial clothing on because folks are ready to goo 100% again.

I lived in Houston (Kingwood) for 20+ years. If I were trying to track in the summer, whoo fugettaboutit!

I forgot about this thread.

Anyone have experience with the Insta 360 cam? I see there up to V.5 nowadays.

I'm wondering if the video file can be used for RaceRender.

looks like there are templates for 360 video.

I have such an easy time ripping out Insta 360 R videos with the iphone software w/o telemetry that I usually just stop there. I'm usually done editing and have posted it before I even get home from an event. (but no telemetry) Been a while since I rode the struggle bus with RaceRender, but I do like getting telemetry on stuff

In short I do like the Insta360 stuff, and their mobile software is pretty good, but I can't help much with RaceRender or Solostorm. I like the replaceable batteries and the 360 footage is great for capturing downed cones behind you for autocross if the camera is mounted on the car exterior.

As for summer temps, the Insta in its sports cage does ok in the Texas summer heat. If I remember I'll throw a hat over, it but its usually fine.
