Second trip to Core4x4
One month later, and I’m back at Core, near Chichester, this time with Derek who has a 20D, 17-40 and 70-200 F4 lenses. All the photos show are my own, with the exception of the one where I’m driving. That shot was Derek’s idea, as he realised I could easily and safely get the front wheels airbourne. Interestingly, I didn’t ground the suspension arms on that run, so perhaps it’s the way forwards!
If anyone knows a fix for this, let me know.
In that last photo you can also see the camcorder mounted. The video is on youtube – it’s 10 minutes long.
Hi Richard – great blog, keep up the good work
I noticed that you were into offroading and wondered if you might fancy reviewing an product of ours for your site? It’s actually a StayStuck Pad for the car, designed to keep phones, mp3 players, keys etc stuck to the dashboard without sliding about. I thought a really bumpy, offroad track would be the best place to test its capabilities. I’d be happy to send you out a free sample of the product in order for you to review it if you were interested!
Or if you fancied doing a comparison, we could also send you out a Magnetic Mounter for the car to see which held up best under extreme conditions
Looking forward to hearing from you
All the best
Nat

I’d love to. It would be great for holding my satnav in place. I have a windscreen suction pad, but the inside of the screen is usually dusty, so it doesn’t stay attached for long. As a result I normally just rest the satnav on top of the dash, touching the windscreen. I can imagine a sticky pad would really help here. Send me a sample and I’ll put a review up.
