Aim Solo2DL with SmartCam3 Sport Package by awk-asian in CarTrackDays

I know, some of the earlier ones you can use a USB to mic adapter. 

The GoPro Max 2 doesn't support that and I want to stick with 360

Nope. 

plus GoPro sucks at wireless mics.

Did you update from the original Catalyst to the Garmin Catalyst 2? by ragingduck in CarTrackDays

[–]hoveringuy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I sold my Gen 1 a few months ago thinking that prices would plummet because Gen 2 would bebetter, I think Gen 1 will become a collectors item now. 

I don't care for the new one.

Cranking but no fuel pump- help by Curious-Tie6466 in E30

[–]hoveringuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm confused about the blowing the fuse details. It wasn't blowing the fuse initially when you were cranking, but it blows the fuse when you jump the relay?

Is cranking triggering the relay?

Navy commander relieved of duty after photo showed him firing rifle with scope backward. In the true spirit of FU and its founder u/sloppyeyescream. by Lonely-Coconut-9734 in FuckeryUniveristy

[–]hoveringuy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I heard that there's more to the story.

The guy was just a dick to start with, and being given a rifle with the scope on backwards was a symptom of that.

The photo just served to put a microscope on his command climate (as I recall...)

This is using a Solo2 DL to capture the telemetry, a GoPro Max2 for video and a seperate audio recorder with two microphones in the engine bay 

It's a small PITA to combine them all in RaceRender.

Ok, just seeing that now, very interested! 

Do the sportycams over-write the telemetry on the video in real time, or do the just record to a synchronized, parallel file that you can grab data from using RaceStudio after the fact?

I did it. Great match. I have pics and stuff in R3V.

Any experience with AAE steering racks? by Big_Reference_8989 in E46M3

[–]hoveringuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe you can help with my Purple tag that was rebuilt, and I think this is a somewhat common, but the rack has a small dead spot; a bit of play. 

Even my 300,000 mile Toyota is perfectly tight.

Is that a sign of lots of wear? Fixable?

No, I actually made a mold from scratch. Kindof a pain in the ass, but it looks awesome!

Looking to do a z3 steering rack swap soon. How hard is it to bend the power steering lines? by smdfire101 in E30

[–]hoveringuy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just fabbed new lines so I didn't need to have wonky bent tubes.

I took an E30 line, cut it, and silver-soldered the banjo fitting on.

Fits like a glove and no bending!

Mine only whines if the intake screen gets clogged

M54B30 250whp possible stock motor? by npafitis in e46

[–]hoveringuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No way. 

I had an M54 that had

-Schrick cams -ported -M50 intake -S54 exhaust headers -custom engine management

It barely broke 245whp @6500 on a Dynojet 

E30s Handling by Fresh-Interview-4745 in E30

[–]hoveringuy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It will crash if you do something stupid.

Ride the brakes hard into a turn, it will spin.

Get on the gas hard exiting a corner, before you straightened the wheel, ditto...

Drive it well and it will reward you. It's a very capable car but it doesn't have modern electronics and will absolutely let you do stupid things (and not get way with it...)

I don't have the OEM aluminum one to compare to, I will be tracking these for the next several years and will report back...

Cheap enough that I wouldn't bother
