    Here is a short video I made using the new Go-Pro Hero camera I bought over the weekend. I'm amazed at the quality this little camera puts out!!! Actually does a really good job of capturing sound without a lot of wind noise too!

    Set it to 720P and crank up the volume!

    Painfully slow but great demonstration.

    I'm just wanting you to open it up. But lots of homes and probably kids too..........

    LOL, the video makes it look like you ran the stop sign at 3:03.
    I know it is more of an illusion than anything.

    Cool Mike! You should run the camera fueling up and let known to all what that can be like.

    Here is the video I shot at the Tacoma Twilight Criterium Bicycle Race on Saturday night. This was the final race of the evening. The Pro 1 -2 class.

    Awesome video. I am pro bike racer myself and I can only imagine how cool it would be if a Countach lead a race. If you are in Colorado at the end of August you should come check out the US Pro Cycling Challenge, aka the tour of Colorado. Cadel Evans is racing and I will be racing too with my team, Team Exergy. Again great video.

    Mike, did you run the camera with the open back or the closed one. I have a GoPro HD Hero and no matter what I do I get nothing but wind buffeting noise when I mount the camera outside. Doesn't matter where I mount it, or which car it's on. Very frustrating.

    I used the open back and had no wind noise at all. The real test will be this weekend when I head up the freeway to our weekly "Cars and Coffee" event. I'll see what happens at 65-70MPH!

    The last video was too long, so I had to cut out the last lap. So, here it is in all it's glory where I get to really nail it at about the :12 mark. ;-)
