How many of you guys run an in-car when you are DEing?
Do you use a standard camera or something that is more motorsports/impact sports specific?

Sony Mini DV. Cheap and portable. Takes nice family videos also.

...just make sure that you have a good camera mount.

Anyone combining video with data acquisition? I have a Traqmate and you can use TrackVision to cobine it with video. Are there systems that work better than others?
I would love to do this for the classroom sessions.
OK - I know - I'm a geek - but I think it would be cool
Take care,

check on the sturdy camera mount...
the DAS with Vid interplay could be really cool...

I use this mount on the rollbar with a Panasonic Mini DV camera.

I use the same mount.

+1 on the I/O Port mount. I use a JVC mini DV camera (Sam's Club special). I'd make sure that the camera has the wide angle lens - I think it's a 16 x 9 lens. It provides a better view out the front window. The only negatives are wind noise.

Steve,
Just get a louder exhaust..then wind noise is not a problem.
