What in the redneck heck am I doing!?

Rigged up an action camera to record the tachometer.  Hopefully it’s secured well enough.  We will see…

The idea is to video record the tach and capture times:

1) 3rd gear from 4000 - 6500 rpm
2) 5th gear from 3500 - 5000 rpm

This is stealing a page out of DBM’s playbook in “Evolution of a Hotrod”.  Once I’ve captured the video, I can play it back on a PC and use a stopwatch to measure the times.

I want to optimize the carb tuning without dropping a small fortune on real dyno testing or relying on my butt dyno.

Wish me luck!
