I just need some feedback from some of you guys who go to the track and those that street drive with GOPRO cameras. My Gfs job just started carrying gopro cameras and they have the gopro hero and the gopro hero 2 which takes 10 pictures in 1 second. I ask BC I need a camera when I go to the track for the first time. The prices between the 2 are $199 and $299. And I get 20% off.

if your question is which one to buy... go for the hero2. Im getting one for my bike later on. Since your coupon is a percentage, you also save more with the $300 one

Well its an employee discount my Gf gets BC she works there.

Ill go with the hero 2 then. Kinda need it for filming at the track. I'd be too scared to mount that on my yzf 250 how good are those suction cups?

Did you go to the same economics class as my girlfriend? She recently went to New York and bought a dress while she was there. $1000.00. Well, actually $990.00. It was 50% off. She told me that she saved me enough money to pay for her trip including airfare and hotel.

She left with my debit card............withdrew well over $2000.00 and told me that she saved me money. Howzat work....please explain.

Thanks ill definitely get one I doubt you'll see wheels up on my video. Hows the suction cup? Do you check on it after every run?

I hope it comes with a video edit software of some sort.

Isn't the waterproof cover supposed to take care of that. I heard your supposed to apply pressure to the camera right before your snap on the back half. But I'm not sure as I don't have one yet. Ill be sure to let you know what works for me.

Now you have me sold. I was getting a bit worried about the suction cup, last thing I need on a first pass is me not being able to show you a 12 sec video in slow motion. Just kidding.

Not camera related but figure I'd ask rather then make a new thread, I've never been to the track so I don't know how to launch exactly. Would I have a lot of wheel spin on street tires? Bolt on only and should I be doing 2nd gear burnouts?

lol i dont know what she did, but OP has 20% off. If he buys the $200 one, he saves $40. But if he buys the $300, he saves $60.

I can explain. She left with YOUR debit card. Who's fault is that, now?

Actually I'm sold on the hero 2 I like the 11 Mega pixels and 10shots/second. Pretty neat.

Where can I ask basic track questions? Like launch, gears etc? Do I ask a ? On each section? I figure I take my car and practice, trying to get a feel for this sport rather then just owning a z28.

We have been 155 and it didn't budge. Use windows live for editing.

Thanks. Have you tried the slow motion? If its not to much to ask may I see one of your videos

BIGCAT7274

Thanks for the help and amazing video.

I'm just curious what it runs BC that thing is quick!!!

BIGCAT7274

best 1/4 was a 8.96 run. on that run it had a 1.38 60ft time.
the pass in the bottom clip was a 5.75 1/8th mile with a soft tune up.
it should run 8.7x when we get the front half squared away.

i can vouch the camera's suction mount will not come off up to 140mph.

i have tried both waterproof and the slotted backing plates and still get wind noise. i have also tried putting tape over the mic's. dont know how you guys are so lucky? granted i dont use mine for 1/4 trips, mine is used for corner carving!

BIGCAT7274

pull the camera out then put the case under water and see if any water gets in.
