Your car is looking good Ron, I haven't been on here for a while but everytime I do I find myself checking out your ride. Looks Kick Azz Man.
Good Job Ron
No big track vid just yet. When I mount the GoPro outside the car the sound is awful. The camera is not rocking inside the case and my firmware is up to date. I called GP tech support and although cool guys, they were little help. I watched a bunch of vids on utube and it looks like this is a known/common problem.
The 3+ series can accept an external mic (after you mod the clear case or buy a the new perimeter case, no wonder the stock was rolling), but I think you can't run the mic outside the car for two reasons: 1 - the fluffy mic wind cover will never stay on at speed, and 2 - not sure tech would allow you to have a line running inside the car from the external camera? If 2 is an option I could clip the mic to the sun visor.
Once the mic arrives I'm gonna test mounting locations and see if there's room on the dash. If so, It'll pick up the driver's view and get in car engine sound. I don't have an a-pillar halo so no way to mount it there, and the seatbelt crossbar gives a good view of the cockpit but not really a good viewing angle for the track 'sense of speed' if that makes sense.
If anyone has any suggestions I'd love to hear it!

Hey Ron, I'm not sure what version GoPro you are using as I started on the last page of this thread but you can help a little with noise when mounting externally a couple of ways.
1) Pic a good location. Mounting on the roof above the windshield and on the quarter window of my car (with front window down) are the two worst places for sound at road course speeds. I've found that mounting almost anywhere along the side of the car to be much better with less wind turbulence.
2) If you have an older gopro like mine put a vacuum cap on the two button mounts (especially the forward facing one)
3) Use a button head screw instead of the long plastic thumb screws to mount the camera and attachments.
4) use the least amount of attachment links that you can.
Won't be perfect but it might help you some. Here is an example, still wind turbulence but won't make your ears bleed.
