What part of ormeau is this. I have not been there for year as It was shut off to the public. I thought it was crap but when I was caught and threatened by police, I have kept well away....

Like to get back there if there aren't to many problems any more.

That last vid the track has been cleaned up big time. It had steps and rutts all through it. Used to be fun.

thats just what I call the perimeter track that runs from upper ormeau rd to the water tower, that is a gazzetted road and perfectly legal with a 60kmh speed limit. all the ruts have been cleaned up.

this is one like it

I.C., the reason i asked is because it seemed to move quite well, yet distort the image at the extreem angles.

So did you use the pictured mount and just leave the lock nuts loose so it swings about ?, and do you know why/what makes it distort ?

Even so, the way it is, its looks like great value, might have to get one at some stage (rollover would have made great video) :hpfredgeorge1:



BTW, hows the lokka working out for ya ? (never really got to test mine)
