Work asked me to go out and play with the new GoPro camera, so what else can you do but stick on the car and go for a spin:

I'm pretty impressed with it - obviously I didn't get above 30mph, but I'd imagine that mounted internally for those RWYB days it'd be perfect.

I do like the GoPro. Manily it's size and quality is very good.
Downsides are the inability to remote start/stop, and sound is a bit on or off..

I've got an old 2GB non HD one, and have loads of 1 hour bits from runs over the last couple of years, but I've never worked out how to edit video (bit of a ludite with iMovie etc.. ) so can't put them up on youtube as they're too big.

Here's a short one while stuck on the drivers door facing backwards..

Yeah the sound does let it down - hence why there's some funk track on mine instead a lovely bubbly V8.
I can live without a remote start stop, the version I was using has a 32GB card in it that'll hold hours at a time which was handy.

That was excellent, who was the sound track by?? How did you hold it to the car bodywork without it rattling about & falling off??

I managed to upload this one from Spa in Belgium about 18 months ago. I'm taking it very easy as it was soaking wet and still running the engine in.... i don't think I overtook anyone on these few laps..

The soundtrack is one of the standard YouTube ones, I can't remember who it's by. I'll have a dig about and see if I can find it.

The camera sits in a waterproof housing, and that's attached to a plastic arm with a few joints in it, with a gert big sucker cup at the bottom that locks down tight. Really tight.
