It's a GoPro Hero Motorsports Wide Lense. Really sweet setup and it suction mounts almost any where on the car. It's a monster suction too and I've had it up to 180mph and it never budged. Google the name. Less than $200.
Haveone myself... love it. Do you run yours ithout the rubber O ring/seal? dude said it would get better sound pickup without that.

I've never tried it without the seal. I always felt it pickup up sound great and that the wind noise didn't get bad until over 100mph so I just left alone.

When I edit my vids I usually edit the sound level on each clip a little louder if needed and then when it's picking up lots of wind noise at higher speeds I edit that section of the clip quieter.

...and that's why a stalled automatic is hard to beat on the street.

rms-man how much are your 241 heads ported and do you plan to upgrade your intake or are you sticking with the stock LS6?

Yeah...I can read, thanks. His mods aren't anything special really.
No offense to the OP that's for sure. It's just really tough to
beat an auto on the street with a stick car.


10.80's @ 123mph is nothing at the track...but launching on the street
like that will take down a lot of cars.

Most of my cars have been manuals and while I agree a well built auto is deadly on the street and the track for that matter. I think a well driven manual can beat an auto anytime, anywhere. Please note I said well driven. He did have a damn good launch and that would be hard to overcome unless the manual had an identical launch, which wasn't the case here.
