Looks pretty good. I think you just need to get it up a bit higher somehow. It's a solid mount though, how did you mount it? Suction cup setup? What track are you taking it to? Drags or Autocross? Maybe PGP?

[Christofur]

there are 2 mounts.

i ordered the suction one so once it comes ill test it again..


as far as i know im just going to the drag. maybe an autocross event.

I had really good luck with putting three tripod foot mounts as part of the floor, then putting the camera behind myself

[Christofur]

that would work to but the GoPro cant hook onto a tripod.
I'm going to test it surfing today ill have alittle video posted.

Hey I have been looking at one of these as well I got a couple of questions?

1. If there software that can merge 2 cameras like a front and rear shots?

2. Can you USB it to a laptop direct and record off it or look at it realtime?

3. Does it have any GPS functions built in?

If I read the manual correctly, you can see it in real time on TV using either the a/v jacks or HDMI cable.
but not the PC.

You will need 2 Go pro's in order to shoot front and rear. Then you will need editing software to combine the 2.

I downloaded a free editor witch will do vids, music, and pictures.
