Hi all,

A recent visit to Maranello Motors cost me $295, I hadn't expected to spend.
I picked up a GoPro Hero video camera (http://www.goprocamera.com/)

It comes with a good selection of adhesive mounting brackets (both curved and flat), which the camera firmly slides on to.  It also includes an excellent suction cup mounting.  This has an incredibly strong hold on glass and body panels.  You can add a number of arm options, to provide a wide range of mounting positions and angles.
The quality of the video is excellent, though the I feel the sound is not optimum, as it doesnt seem to pick up the broom broom sounds well.
For the money, these units are not bad.  Shop around and you will pay between from $250 - $300.
I made some test videos this morning.  I These files were compressed to allow me to load them on Youtube.  The actual quality is much better.
If anyone is interested, search Youtube for the following (I have not worked out how to embed videos on the forum.

All footage was taken under controlled circumstances by trained professionals.  Don't try this at home kiddies.

hi there...we sell the hero camera's at work too, and i was thinking about dropping acouple in and around my car at the August Winton sprint...dose anyone know if i'd be aloud to have just the camera outside the car(solidly mounted) or am i going to need to put a box around it aswell???

any external mount would have to be secured by a metal strap, the screw type attachement in the bottom of most camera's or a suction type mount would be insufficient.
