Default How do you make a decent exhaust video?

I can't seem to make a decent exhaust thread. On video, my car seems quiet compared to most other peoples, but with an O/R prochamber and magnapacks, it's not quiet. To shoot any videos, I am using a Fuji Fine Pix digital camera. Here is my latest video. Yes, you will need headphones.

Strap your digital still cam to the license plate, and let her fly......Works for me.....

I thought about that. Did you use a suction device camera mount?

it all just depends on the camera you use...if a sony cybershot and a fujifilm finepix are used to take clips of the exact same thing, the sound will turn out different....each camera has a different mic setup as far as connections, quality of the parts used, and whatnot....digital camcorders usually have better sound since its a camcorder but you should be able to get a decent clip out of a digital camera depending on the type you use....maybe next time, rev up the engine a bit and maybe even do a drive-by clip....should be okay....

No....I put the neck strap of the camera thru the trunk latch bracket, just for safety. Then, let the camera dangle down in front of the license plate. Since it is a still camera with movie mode, it is square, and flat backed. I just took blue painters tape, and taped the crap out of it to the license plate. Shut the trunk lid, which tightens up on the strap as well. Turn it on, and let her rip.....
