    GoPro video camera demo clips

    Did everyone get a chance to take a look at the tiny camera rig Glenn got from Alamo Autosports via Mike Patterson?

    Here is the first installment of several demo clips of the camera

    Quite impressive for the packaging and price point.

    GoPro

    My boss was talking to me yesterday about a pair of those cameras he ordered (before he goes on a scuba trip). Then last night, I see an article in SportsCar comparing it to others.

    My boss's arrived today and that thing is tiny! I meant to check out Glenns setup at TWS but completely forgot. It was mentioned in the article about a drawback being that the mount for the rollbar had to be level, I'm guessing meaning you can't mount it on the rear downbars without using an I/O port type mount. On their website it lists a mount for 1.4" dia bar but nothing bigger. Did you'se get his mounted on the cage?

    Great video Mitch, that looks like a sweet piece of equipment. Was the camera mounted on your windshield?

    Jerry ... yes. Friday saw me lifting at a lot of points!

    Michael ... using the suction cup mount, right on the base of the windshield.

    Good picture! Seems to go out of focus every once in while. Sounds like a cool setup.

    The camera should be up on the website sometime late next week. Otherwise, feel free to shoot me a PM and I'll get you in touch with Brice at Alamo.

    Note: I have no financial interest in this - just providing an outlet to get a cool gadget.
