Well here goes, i know ill get bashed by some for this, then again maybe not.

Mind you my car has a problem with the kickdown switch, so couldn't make use of going into first for some of the slow hairpins thus the slow acceleration from slow speeds in second. The gearing is too tall as i always say but still its not bad.

Will do an early morning run some other time with less traffic soon.

Glad you are man. ill try to place the cam in a better position where the rear view mirror doesn't block the view, nor does the sagging headliner.

Well here goes another run, this time on a smooth sweeping highway that climbs up the mountain taking you from sea level to just over a 1000m in less than 8 min, in this vid i only go to about 650m as i would have ran out of fuel if i were to keep pushing till the end of the highway.

It was also mid of a hot summer day so oil temp was already high as it is. and when i eased off at the end i could hear the cam tappets for a few seconds before the oil cooled down again. And thats Mobil1 0-40, supposed to be with the best out there.

Jay, read this thread: http://www.500ecstasy.com/forums/showthread.php?t=6209 and it's links as well. This knowledge will help you to choose the best oil possible.
One thing I would add is that in your warm climate, I would go with 20/50.
Regards, Eric

thanx Eric,

As for the cam holder, well i am using my Nokia N95 phone (vids recorded at 640X480 @30FPS, can be watched on a 42'' and still have goood quality its youtube that downgrades it after upload !!!) so the cam holder is a phone holder that has a sucction cup to clamp on the glass, it has a stiff but twistable arm on which the phone clamp is attached. its simple and effective. ill post a pic in a bit.
