Is this the cricket noise? or is it something else...
 

So i was with my driving group today having a ton of fun on the mountain. all the sudden i started hearing this squeaking noise. and the faster i go the more constant it is. it goes squeak-squeak, squeak-squeak and when i drive faster it go squeaksqueaksqueaksquak.... I'm not sure what it is, maybe my gopro mount? i can't imagine what would cause it tho. the reason i say this is because in the video, the camera is mounted on the hood of the car, i don't actually hear the noise while in the cabin. it wasn't till wayyy later when i mounted it on my roof(right above my head) i started to notice the noise. and later on our way back, I put the gopro away and we were going faster than before and there was no more noise. can anyone help me identify what it could be? thanks!

squeak start around 35 seconds in

It's not crickets. This car is not very well insulated in order to save weight, and my bet is that it's the wind noise from the camera mount. Sometimes small things will hit my car as I am driving and I'll swear it was a large rock because of how the sheet metal in this car just conducts sound.

i'l really hoping that is the case. i looked at the mount last night. there is no way for me to physically make it to replicate that noise. i'll take it out again today in the same position to see if i can replicate it.

This would be my guess also, although I can't hear it ..... :cry:

Rain on the roof of my FR-S reminds me of rain on a tin roof of a building, back in the day.

Oh, BTW ..... what road is that ......??
