Makes more sense now. Before, all you'd posted was a Google map of the USA.

There are ten million cameras like this for motorsports. I don't get it at all and then the VID only highlights fixed-mount cameras and no "Helmet Cam".
FAIL

Joo, there's a lot of suction cup mounts that use a standard camera mount... and a camera that can record 720p can be had for under 120 nowadays =P

Problem is most organizations wont allow for suction cup mounts inside the car for safety reasons...

I really liked the 1080p

I don't know much about Camcorder. One thing that really caught my eyes was the quality and clarity of the promo video.

Super cool. A friend of mine has one of these and uses it for his motorcycle and snow skiing. He has a mic that goes behind the helmet and although it gives some wind noise, it is quite acceptable. Great videos.

Yes. I raced with SCCA and IMSA for several years. The first Video you posted shows a typical fixed mount split camera view in a race car,
I still don't get it, sorry.

Never argue with idiots - first they drag you down to their level, then they beat you with experience.

I decided to use my phone to take videos.

I decided to use my Samsung Omnia to take videos. Quality is not too bad. Suction Mount $10, and Omnia I paid $99.99.

Checkout the video I took at Angeles Crest Highway December 1, 2009.
