We took it to an empty parking lot yesterday and it was so fun. Handles really well and drifts good. Here is some next to the Rustler.

Mine is the first really dirty one with the video on the track, and the lifted one Snoop has been posting for me. Here's some close ups of the bling I've added so far...

PIR3lly - That just sold me on that camera. I've had my eye on it for awhile now, I'll be picking one up tomorrow :)
Here's some footage of my boredom at work. Nothing special, but gotta do something to kill the time. By the way, I work overnight shift, by myself...

Thanks for the comment guys!
About the effect of the weight.
The camera isn't really heavy, but on such a small car it does weigh a lot. Especially with the complete mount.
The mount is however very easy to install without damaging the body and it doesn't come loose, once attached.
Because the weight is shifted to one side, it's best to fit the battery to the opposite compartment. Then adjust the preload of the springs on the inner side.
Still it doesn't handle as great as without the cam, but it's very driveable. Drifting with the cam on the inside of the turns goes easier than without the cam. But the turns with the cam on the outside are more difficult.
Seems that the rally jumps pretty good!
I also saw your solution for loosing body clips.
Why didn't you get something like this:

[IMG]http://i1238.photobucket.com/albums/ff485/PIR3lly/Rally%20VXL/bodyclip1.jpg[/IMG]
They are body clip retainers and cost around 4 dollars.
(on the images it might look like they are not in de center, but that's just the misprinted pro-grahics)
heres mine with my custom made hood scoop :)
