Eric, glad you are going to join us, you will love the Dragon'
Brian, happy to see you on the list. We missed you on the last trip. I am really happy with the wheels, thanks.
You guys bring the total to 12. I think some of the guys from another forum will join us, not sure at this time. I am hoping Robbie (black GT from our Greensboro meet) will join us. He is the one who invited us to the Pro-Dyno, the Snake and VIR.

I was thinking the same thing about an Auto GoPro, really cool, but not going to be used enough for the $200some they cost.
Would there be any interest in getting a club GoPro though? I feel like we could easily get people to throw in a little bit for it if the interest is there. We could keep it with someone and if they cant make a cruise then ship it to someone who will be there.
Any interest in that?

Is there any benefit to that over a conventional digital video camera? I would go for the suction cup mount, looks like a neat piece and isnt expensive. I can machine a piece that uses conventional camera mount threads (1/4-20) and adapts to their suction cup mount as an alternate.
- Great quality video (achievable through both).
- Durable (depends on the mount system rigged for the digital).
- Wind Noise Cancelled. That's the drawback of in car video, all the sounds of the road and car are muffled. Outside camera placement would be constant wind noise, but I think the GoPro will eliminate that (not sure).
- Can't forget waterproof as well if the weather turns on us.
EDIT: http://gopro.com/videos/auto/ That video shows the picture and sound quality of them. If we could get something close to that with a conventional camera, I'm all for that as well!

I looked into it a bit more, and I don't think we can get a capable full time video camera for any cheaper. I couldn't find anything about an active backgroud filter, but it does have a remote microphone input. They probably ran the mic inside the car, or maybe the casing has enough blockage to remove wind noise. I would be up for the camera, but only if we have 5 or so people doing it.

I've had pretty good luck with my regular digital camera mounted on a cheapie WalMart tripod. I'm going to have to get another tripod though, cause this one is falling apart on me. The only problem is my camera will only run for 16 minutes at a time.

I have a camera that i can borrow that can shoot 1080p, but I think I am limited by file size to something less than the 16 minutes that you have. It would also be inside the car. The go pro would be nice to have from a roof mounted setting as well.
