Speed settings for drag racing-slot cars

Hi, wonderful product, thanks to the developers. I have a " speed question. " I am using two webcams, both 2MP , one Logitech and another generic one, using on a minicomputer. I am using this set up to record my slot car drag races ( 13 feet).  One facing the start of the race, the other facing the finish line. on playback, i notice the speed is slow, meaning, as if not in real time, not a blur, but just see the cars but as if they are in slow motion.

What settings would you suggest? I think each camera is at 30fps, but on the application, i think I saw up to 60 fps, i have mine set at 30fps.

Note, i understand these are not made to capture speed, but asking.

scale speed of slot cars are about 25mph to 35 mph.

Confuse why have a public forum, where the developers, tech support, etc refuse to assist with users questions...just close it down !

Hi, thanks for waiting.
It is possible that your computer simply cannot handle the task of capturing two cameras, encoding and recording at the same time.
Try lowering the camera capture resolutions and the canvas resolutions and see what happens.
