go pro help

Man, I thought I was going to make me a small video since I'm home now for a couple days...well at least until sunday. So, I took out the go-pro, attached it to the rear of the car and off I went. What I didn't realize is that when I got up to speed, all I would get was wind. I'm so disapointed in the go-pro. What does everyone else do to keep the wind out and hear the exhaust? So can someone help a brother out please.

I would clean the spot your trying to place the go pro on before. I usually like putting the go pro either on the trunk facing down or the back side of the car near one side of the exhaust.

The "spider" back helps some. I had problems at the track with it and poor audio due to wind noise (even when inside the vehicle). I see on some of the sites that some are running an external mic back to the lip above the license plate to pickup the exhaust sound from a protected point while mounting the camera somewhere else on the car.

Look up Mic Bergsma's YouTube channel. He tests a fluffy mic cover that sticks to skeleton back door, and it muffles out almost all of wind noise. I think the cover comes with another case back door.

I didn't even hear any wind noise from that video. That engine sure sounded good. Question, was that the track msr track down 288. I'm gonna try to get down there for a track day. I will order one tonight along with the fuzzy one that Master Dank has. Then after testing both, I can give everyone a qualified review. Thanks guys for your help.
