Cool Supercharged C6 Video

I just bought a new "Sticky Pod" camera mount, decided to test it out by making an in-car video of my Corvette. This was my first time to make a story video, turned out okay. Here is the video:

LOL, one of the things you do without realising it, like I do, is readjust yourself in the seat after the shift to 3rd. I don't know why but I do it without thinking about it. Cool vid too.

Nice! I just recently purchased some video stuff myself. Got the 520 line bullet cam from chasecam.com.



Ive only made two test videos so far, but I'm figuring it out. (click here for vid if you're interested)


Vid looks good! You doing the editing in Windows Movie Maker? One of the problems Im having is losing video quality when uploding to Google Videos. I think I'll try uploading here next time. Looks like you kept alot more sharpness.

BTW, that Vette is beautiful. I need to take a closer look at it one day.

Thank you....not a high horsepower monster like yours or Tony's, but it is alot of fun.


Tony, will that mount allow you to stick the camera on the body? Meaning, is it strong enough?

HRJ, you can stick this mount to paint or glass. Take a look at their website for details and pics of it in use. www.StickyPod.com

Stevo, it can stick upside down on the rear hatch window, or on the passenger window. I have a few extension rods and elbows that I can assemble to put the camera at any angle or position. Works pretty cool. I did the setup above because it was simple, and wanted to hear the blower and tires roasting

Since Hwy 99 construction has ramped up in the last few months, there's been alot of State Troopers on that road.

You get the pro pack? I need to get one for my truck. The pro pack looks to have two camera mounts why would oyu need that? All of the rods are connected via threads correct? That oulw make sense why they have two of them then to be able to rotate the camera to any angle.

I got the pro-pack, and ordered an extra 6 inch extender bar. Just so I can have more flexibility on where to put it, in various vehicles. The two "mounts" are actually elbows, so you can use them as an elbow or a camera mount.
