Here's a video showing some driving footage of my Outback:





No off-roading in this video like I normally do. The front bar is freshly resprayed, so I'm hoping to keep it that way for as long as possible (its not gonna last long...!).

I FINALLY got around to using my GoPro properly - I've had it for months but never really used the damn thing. I assumed it would fall off the car, but it did fine through all the water crossings, bumps etc.

Anyway let me know what you think! :-}

Shiv, I am jealous! This is one thing (the only thing) I wish my car was capable of!

Looks like an awesome drive! And raw(ish) GoPro footage is good for people considering buying one! I am quite disappointed to hear the sound quality is so affected by wind! But like others have said, it's pretty good for a camera that costs so little!

You should take a trip out to Yerrandrie (spelling?)

Technically you could drive your car on roads like these....but yeh, not sure if you'd want too :P

Yehhh sound quality is shit. But then I think at those speeds, it would be far worse with a traditional camera microphone.

Never been there before Adam. Any good? I'll probably make it out there eventually, no doubt!

Yeah could and should are 2 different things :P it wouldnt be a comfy ride :P

I'm a bit disappointed that the sound is that bad, on the GoPro website they talk it up!

And I thought Yerrandrie was great, definitely an over night trip though!

Thanks Morgs!

Funnily enough, I was gonna msg you. But it was only really early on Sat morning that I decided I'd be going for a drive because I got a txt from work at 6:30am saying that I didn't need to come in.

Anyway I want to go to Stockton again. If I get enough notice from work, I'll post it up here and convince some of the lurkers to come along too :)

I attached it to the charcoal canister, Chris. Perfect mounting spot for it, smooth and flat.

Great to hear you'd just switch over the suspension to join us! I'll organise a day at the dunes this November :)
