Default GoPro in-Car mounted Video Camera...

Just so everyone knows up front...I am not a shop or a store! I'm just a guy trying to pass on some savings to some forum peeps. (Hopefully make a couple of bucks too)
Anyway, I came across a speed shop while traveling that was going out of business and picked up several of the new GoPro Motorsports "WIDE" video cameras. (These sell on eBay and are supposed to have a MAP for $199)
NOTE: Keep in mind that GoPro sells SEVERAL different models...starting with only a standard camera all the way up to the top of the line and complete kit called the "Motorsports" version with the wide angle lens. (I am selling the top of the line version) I hope that helps avoid some confusion.

The units I bought were all still in the original packaging straight from the manufacturer and have never been opened!

So, I am selling them all (except I'm keeping two of them) first come, first served. Meaning - If you haven't sent me a payment...your not in line. :flag:

The price is $169 SHIPPED anywhere in the continental US!

My Paypal address is stealthjr at verizon dot net

SEVERAL forum members can vouch for me if necessary. :thumbs:

Thanks,

Robert

P.S. Picture showing 3 sides of product found here!

Question: Does this videocamera have the ability to be hooked up to a DVR or a laptop for longer recording?

That is a good question...

Answer: I do not think so...I believe you get approx. 56 minutes of recording from a 2GB SD card.

Maybe "mitchntx" knows since he has been a long time user or maybe here will tell you. http://www.goprocamera.com/

Sorry I wasn't more help!

That's what I was thinking as well. I was looking over their website and saw that info.

I wish they had a contact number so I could just call and ask. That'd be the easiest way!

I guess I dont know what your trying to use it for...but if it is for a track day...most sessions in a HPDE event is less than 30 minutes. Why not just bring an extra SD card and swap them out and/or bring your laptop and download the session onto your computer so your SD card is empty at the beginning of each session?

Hope that helps!
