Some onboard videos - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

R4R · 08-26-2010, 02:47 AM

I thought that I would post up some customer videos to see what you guys thought about the quality.

The video conversion is carried out by some aftermarket software which converts .AVI to .MP4 for use with youtube video.

feedback would be appreciated.

Don't forget to watch in Youtube HD if your bandwidth will handle it.

Quick Question about the guy in the 2nd vid driving the Noble.

He seems to be sawing away at the steering wheel in the corners? Is he a professional and that's just the way it has to be done in a Noble? I'm no expert, but the one lesson i've had was all about single input steering. ??? Not having a go, or looking to slag anyone off, just interested.

Vids look great

Recommend that you watch the vids full screen HD - looks brilliant.

Is the first vid an M3?

You're right with what you say about input, but this is a chassis in development which appears to understeer quite badly at the moment. I believe that he is trying to give the passenger a good ride and is doing his best to exploit the grip and find just where it is.

the passenger had a good time me thinks!

yes E92 M3. first run of the day. he got much faster, but this video had fewer flies and dead bigs on the screen and gave better video.

Sounds very nice

Dissapointed with the M3 vid, I was hoping to see how fast he managed along the back straight

Really like the screen layout and visuals. Havent watched it in HD yet but looks pretty good quality. We have never met so I assume OBV is part of your own business Dario?? Steve

Great vids Dario - it's obviously very, very good kit you're using - not only is the image quality great but the sound track isn't ruined with wind roar, which so many track-based vids normally are.

That radical is immense - love the sequential box.

I'm guessing the speedo is GPS based and you have a box of tricks containing accelerometers for the G readings?
