I know tackform makes some good seat mounts for an alt view, but with some Recaro Sportsters it won't work with them anymore. I thought about interior suction cup mount for the rear 1/3 window.

Thoughts?

What about the interior light fixture? Stick one of the 3M stickies and have the gopro mount inverted. F80 folks use a suction cup on the back of the sportsters?

A friend of mine has tested the RAM brand mounts on his supercharged Huracan at 200mph so I think I trust it pretty well for the rear quarter mount too lol
If you have no where else to mount rear quarter glass is good. Yes there's a blind spot but I'd rather give up the blind spot for a view of driver inputs.

I bought an element fire extinguisher today. Very light weight and something good to keep in the car.
I had a bulky abc extinguisher that I had the intent of installing, but the reality is I'll probably never get around to it. This one makes it much easier.

Second camera - if your primary camera doesn't catch hour hands than that would be my first choice even if it is a window mount to do it. If you have a 6spd then the 2nd camera setup on your feet could be useful/cool to see. After that would do rear facing.

Like Kelse92 I have never had an issue with the suction cup mounts - they work very well. Low on the front bumper is a cool perspective, just no bump drafting that session. Fender cam can be cool too.

I have one per car at home in the gloveboxes and another by the BBQ.

I've actually used the BBQ one with a grease fire, it worked well and helped me avoid a Darwin award

What was on the grill?

[roastbeef]

Probably bacon.

A ton of chicken with skin. You know those Costco 3 packs? I had 4 of them on there. It seemed like a good idea at the time, that's all I've got to say about that

I left it on high, went to work some more and before I knew it, the whole thing was on fire. Turned off the gas and it was still on fire and wouldn't burn out. I took the burnt chicken off but enough grease had caught fire for it to just keep burning. The grease holder also caught fire.

I was close to using a hose, but then thought the grease would just keep burning. I used the Element instead and it worked very well.

Good stuff. As a non-American, grills are pretty rare in my country so I'm living life on the edge over here.

[roastbeef]

I forgot you weren't American, so you wouldn't be barbecuing bacon. Lol

I eat bacon at my sister's in Canada, they do it on the pan, wonderful stuff. Never tried it on a BBQ but seeing my limited success... I should refrain myself

[roastbeef]

Isn't Canadian bacon just ham? I'm taking bacon bacon.

Sprinkling baking soda on a grease fire will put it out instantly

I'll need to remember this. And to not leave the fire on high while answering emails...

Haha. 'Canadian bacon' is indeed just ham, not sure why it gets called that

The good stuff is the regular ol' bacon! They are two different things though.

Hmmm

I meant bacon in Canada, which i called 'canadian bacon', which is the same as US bacon but bought in Canada.

It seems like there's something called 'Canadian Bacon' which is ham.

There is no confusing the good stuff!!

Canadian bacon is called Canadian bacon up here too and the regular stuff is just called bacon.

Canadian. I've always just said ham for Canadian bacon and bacon for bacon 🤷

I do the same - it's just ham. I was just trying to provide clarification
