First attempt at a road movie. Ray was driving the HR-V with camcorder mounted to the windscreen via a suction mount. Extremely tight fitting and managed to get a decent angle so it wasn't all bonnet. I had to zoom in on quite a bit as Ray was being Honda driver with an extremely safe distance behind Nitin's Yellow Phoenix.
I'd definitely do it again, perhaps a side camera mounted as well, but, far better to on a dual carriageway on the way to a show with the convoy waiting to overtake the 'camera car'.
Let me know your thoughts on the video, (tune not everyone's taste for sure, in which case turn volume down and replace with your own favoured genre of music).
Thanks for watching the vid

The Road to Mimms, 2019 - Santa Pod
In case anyone is wondering... I couldn't be arsed with the road to Mimms, since it started so bloody early.
I turned up fashionably late. However, I did make full use of 'the road at Mimms' (the drag strip) in the afternoon, while everyone else in LG was too worried about getting dirt on their precious cars
