imho, a very poorly laid out video. with the wind noise, and lack of angles, it makes it hard to watch for 4+ minutes. try getting a microphone to put in your engine bay, get more extremem angles, and have a few people film as well. its hard to do it as a 1 man job, but you have the potential to make a great video

Too many straights. Throw some twisties in the mix. I would try to capture the exhaust note. If wind noise is a problem, cover up the mic with some foam or something. Have a friend put the cam on the back of their car with you chasing them. Have someone standing on the side of the road capturing some flybys.

thanks for that idea, and as the foam goes , i tried it and it didnt make a difference, im thinkin about getting a MIC and putting it in the engine bay then getting another mic and putting it on the outside near the license plate to capture the rear exhaust note since the wind noise is too much of a problem ya know also,
im thinkin about getting one more goprocam since they are only 200. and then ill use my regular digital camera and make a mount for the interior. it will be sick, then ill have a couple different people standing outside for out of car shots then ill get some of my friends in their cars and tape me driving down the street / highway, etc. to get more angles for a better video. but i like how you gave me the idea TO strap one on a car ahead of me or behind me for more perspective shots.

I thought it was a pretty good video. I didnt sit through the whole 4+ min, but i still enjoyed it. I would really like to see another video if you make one

What kinda camera mount are you using?

When editing, keep your angles running no longer that 15 seconds. Keeps the viewers interested, otherwise, boredom may set in.
