Read the description. Im a moron

Still works great afterwards like nothing happened. Love my GoPro.

 

lmao, classic. glad everything is still working tho. now go out there and get some autox footage

 

Five star video!! I have a Canon HV20 and would love to do some outside of the car shots while doing some "regular" driving. Even though I have the "accidental" coverage on it for 4 years, I would really love to get a good mount. Any suggestions?

 

lmao, that's fantastic. glad it's all working still

 

To be honest the gopro system is the best bet in my opinion. Its designed for driving and getting beat up. It comes with sticky mounts and also a suction mount (which is what came off due to dirt in the video).

Other than that the most common thing I see is that someone will connect a piece of metal across their headrests and attach a camera in the middle. Like this:

 

Problem is that sort of mount doesn't work when you have Recaros with no headrest bars... I've been trying to figure out a way to mount my Canon G10 but I haven't done anything concrete yet...

 

if you pop out your dome light and remove the two screws holding it in, it's a perfect place to fab up a mount. i did that myself, but since then, i've made a headrest mount that works a lot better.

that video is hilarious, btw.

^ LOL, way to squeeze in a plug for yourself. i love it!

 

Thats hilarious.

 

you'll have to show me that mount. gunna need something for Road Atlanta in the coming months when I move!

 

Brilliant!

 

How far down the road did you get before you realized it was gone?

 

It was about 15 minutes later and I was lucky for two reasons...

1. Earlier in the day I had let two bikers by me that were hauling ***. They were at the top and saw it fall. They grabbed it and held onto it.

2. One of them followed me down, and luckly I had stopped half way to check on the GPS datalogging I was doing and it was then I noticed it was gone. The dude on the bike came up about 10 minutes later and let me know what had happened.

So I was lucky and learned a lesson for next time. There are marks in the dirt on my window where you can see the suction move before it flew off from lack of grip.

 

LOL that was fail. That camera is the **** though. I'm thinkin of getting one myself.
