    Haven't broken a lens cover yet on the gopro case, but they do get chipped from the rocks. This solved the problem.

                  All are GoPro that are on the cars. You can see them on some of the pictures and videos. They do not use the GoPro mounts though. They have a more ridgid mount and after breaking 3 of the roll bar mounts I'll probably get getting one like they use as well.

                    These are all of my videos shot with the GoPro:



                    The GoPro 2 (new one) has a WHOLE lot better video than the original, especially at night. I use the R5 setting for all of my shots.

                        I was at wal mart getting a menory card and they hae a new system for 89.00 that is slimmer than my go pro and uses the same type mount.I like the go pro but it was a little hard to figure out at first.

                          i know this is old but curious how many MB SD card most of you are using. We run 20-25 lap races but sometimes turn into a crash fest 30 plus minutes to finish up.

                          MERC123 did you ever find the other mounts? If so who/where did you get them.

                              Same here. Should be good for about an hour at 720p.

                              Amazon is having a huge same in flash memory right now if you're looking for a card.

                                8 is bare minimum for a race. I use a 16 on mine but that was because I couldn't find any affordable 32's. I can usually get two races on a 16 GB card just in case I forget to delete the week's prior race.

                                I have found some other mounts and cases, but the cost of them weren't feasible ($199). Lucas Oil uses a certain kind of arm mount that I saw for I think ~$40. I just haven't bough it. It's not as easily removed like the GoPro roll bar mount because it uses hose clamps. If you pre-mount it, which I always do unless I rent my GoPro out, it shouldn't be a big deal though.
