Anyone have their own footage of... well.. anything? Driving, racing, etc?

Not speaking from any position of knowledge but I had a Bluetooth ODB box to a similar program in another non jaguar car and it used to flatten the battery too, I know in that car the ODB didn't lose power when you shut off the ignition so it would just keep on running overnight, it was low power so it took 3-4 days of not using the car but it would flatten it. Doubt any warranty would cover sticking third party hardware in though

Also, in my case, when they ask why I'm tapping the OBD port, I won't be getting much sympathy. In your case, you have a defensible reason.

But my friend just sent this from our Cars and Coffee Trip last month, and wow.... that's some fantastic road level footage of an F-Type!

So even tho I didn't even film, I want to get better at this, and I would love to see any of us with our own footage, THAT DOESN'T INCRIMINATE OURSELVES. lol

I realize the MPH overlay will be switched off most of the time.

The photographer's car is a Subaru.

I agree. After messing around with apps and Gopro switching on and off. I now have a 1080P dash cam and am keen to try this on my next drags or track days?
