the camera itself is prolly not recording hte sound, othewise it would be all windnoise. he prolly had a mic in the engine bay, or in/on the dash close to it. or he edited it out. ---

pretty damn cool setup. watch the second autox vid for some cone slaying action and much less sun. [http://store.northamericanmotoring.com/video/OctaneGuyStore/autox\_knockout.wmv](http://store.northamericanmotoring.com/video/OctaneGuyStore/autox_knockout.wmv) btw, he said he had the mic mounted under the hood near the intake. ---

Fantastic camera shot, but where the hell did he put the mic? Right next to the blower? If I had to endure that sound in the cockpit I’d off myself after a 5 minute drive ---

All I know is that my MiniDV is getting the shit beat out of it, even with the “isolator” mount. I probably won’t have a camera in my car again until I get something solid state. And at this point, I really have other things to focus on than getting vids.
