The Gopro Motorsports Hero camera is made to mount to your vehicle and it mounts anywhere you want with ease to your vehicle.  I just mounted mine to the hood of my Mustang.  Will post some pics shortly.  I found that Mounted on the hood, I get the great sound of the engine.  Took a few tries but now  I have it placed perfectly.  Great engine sound and the video is similar to a video game.  The Motorsports wide covers everything and I get a little bit of the hood at the bottom of the picture.  Its the real version of Need for Speed with all the sound effects.  If your not familiar with the Gopro cameras and in particular the motorsports hero, these cameras are tiny, wide angle lens and available in HD.  The best part of the camera is its simplicity to use and it mounts easily to anything and everything.  Completely shockproof and waterproof.  I’ve dropped my gopro a few times now and it still works perfectly, less a few cosmetics on the case.  The other great thing is that you can get a Gopro Camera for around $300 (that’s top of line HD one).

The Flip is an easy to use pocket sized camcorder.  It comes in the Flip Ultra that’s only $159 and standard def, Flip Ultra HD for $209, and the Flip Mino HD (1hr and 2hr options) for only $239.  The Flip is so simple to use and the size lets you put it just about everywhere.  They capture 2 hours of recording on its built in memory and features a one touch recording.  You can be filming within 3 seconds, so you can catch your action immediately.   Once your done recording simply plug it into your USB with built in USB connection that swings out.  The included software allows you to easily share and edit your videos.  I like how easy it is to capture still-image snapshots from your video.  There’s also a TV cable included so plug in to your TV and enjoy.  If you don’t want to use the software, just pull the video in via USB.  Recordings are high quality H.264 videos that’s compatible with most video playing applications like window media player, quicktime, and even iTunes.   The Flip Mino is even smaller and in my opinion worth the extra few bucks.  Check out all the Flip camera options and join the Flip culture.

Gopro owners can get a Gopro Roll Bar Mount for their cameras.  The mount is easy to install and attaches to any tubing or framing that is 1.4″ to 2.5″ thick.  Its perfect for Go Karts!  Its actually a pretty versatile mount.  Some suggestions from gopro are for  bike frames, bumper bars, and  ski/surfboard racks.  The mount has an adjustable pivoting arm to allow for 3-way adjustability giving you the perfect shooting angle.  Its clamp and go.  If you can clamp it you can film it.  Hardware is stainless steel so no worry about rust when you get it wet.  If this mount does not fit your needs, check out the rest of the gopro mounts available.
