    Go Pro Hero Cam Endorsement

    Just a quick FYI for those of you on the fence with respect to this camera. I finally pulled the trigger on one for the Rolex Reunion and I am very pleased with the results. Easy to set up and use, out of this world HD video, and an excellent value from a cost standpoint. The only issue I see is with the roll bar mount being plastic and fatiguing over time.

    Two thumbs way up from me! Curt E. you need one of these buddy.

    Sorry Harry, I don't have a link to any video. Plus, if you upload it to a host site, I think you will lose the HD quality. They are pretty big files - about 3G+.

    $299 for the motorsports cam and $30 for the roll bar mount. The suction cup works great for even high speed runs, but the race sanctioning bodies will not allow that, I believe.

    Highly recommend the GoPro HD cam. I've had it fitted to my surfboard and kite when kite surfing and the footage is great.

    Reference the mounts, I've used the roll bar mount on a paddle shaft when Stand Up Paddle surfing in heavy 6' + surf with no problems.

    Setting it up for still images is an other great option.
