John the GOPRO looks bad asss !!! I was looking into GOPRO Hero2 but found couple other video cams with GPS and other features which can prolly save you in couple situations....but am so in love with the GOPRO its getting hard to decide !!!
the roof spoiler looks awesome as well.....
couple suggestions:
1> place the GOPRO lower so you can see out of the windshield....i know JS+MS3 posted a link for a great product....check this out:
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produc...st_Camera.html
2> does your reverse gear make a loud noise when you engage it ??? i recommend using the hand brake

Thanks for the tips! I did a lot of research before I bought the GoPro. I assume the gps camera you're referring to is the Contour+, right? I watched a long video comparison between it and the GoPro on youtube and the tester said the image quality of the GoPro was a lot better. However, the Contour+ has a lot more bells and whistles...the smartphone app for the Contour+ for live viewing is sweet! However, GoPro is coming out with a new accessory that will do something very similar: http://gopro.com/hd-hero-accessories...-remote-combo/

^^^ John...the wifi bagpack and remote are awesome but i dont think you can mount the camera between your seats with that....the reason i think thats a good spot is as it covers the road in front of you, your speedo and the gauge cluster....
about the car "black box"....Morgan (civicdrivr) mentioned some nice ones....cant seem the find the thread, but i did find this in my browser history.....i think this was lower in the spectrum.....
the reason i love GOPRO is coz of the quality it has to offer....its just awesome !!!

use windows live movie maker. and then after it uploads, go to file...save movie...and then hit 'recommend for this project' and it'll save it as a wav. file that you can upload to youtube immediately.

Never seen the "black box" you mentioned. Looks pretty neat and looks like it got good reviews on Amazon.
I got my roof spoiler from ebay vendor "aaa.motor". I chose them because they were the only ones at the time that would offer WDP as one of their available color options. Other vendors said WDP was too hard to match so they wouldn't do it.

Well I tried just uploading the unedited .mov version and I also tried uploading a converted .mp4 version. I used the GoPro Cineform Studio software to edit, trim and convert it to .mp4. I use a Mac, so I have some other options like iMovie that I need to try. Vimeo worked well for the unedited .mov format. Just takes a while...that 2 min video I posted was almost 2gb.
I'm a photo guy, not a video guy, so I'm on the steep end of the learning curve right now. ![Tomato](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/tomato.gif)

^^^the fact that the guy got out of the ticket, cool...likelihood of that happening to all 3 of us...SLIM!
I still want the gopro also...for mountain biking and car stuff...would ACTUALLY like to mount it on my fiancee's car and have her drive next to me on the highway...that way I'd have an idea of what angle I can drop in and and out and switch lanes etc...then chop it up when I get home.
Did you figure out the V1? Did you check the little tiny fuse?!? I thought I had a bad fuse and it was the baby fuse that was blown. Also, the cord is finicky...I had to order another cord from them directly...5 years in direct sunlight cooked mine at the jack.

Great post Sean....love that video....
my main reason of getting a GOPRO is to capture my encounter with assholes....coz i have had and encounter with a fuck-turd and he swiped my car (but no damage
) and pinned it on me....wish i had a camera which was recording the capturing the outside of the car, like the ahead of the car and prolly the sides (somehow) so i can stick up the video up those retards....

Summer wheels = mounted. Thanks to Jeremy for the 20mm spacers that are on the front...they sit pretty damn flush. Major rubbing going on...need to roll or shave asap.

My nuts are too big for everything. Although I have contacted Dr. Ichiba to try and remedy the problem.
