    WTF is with Webber ?????? These crap starts are really beginning to piss me off. How is it that a very experienced driver like him CANT launch car ??? What happened to practicing.

    IF he could have got his shit together he would be A HELL OF A LOT CLOSER TO VETOOL THAN HE IS in the WDC.

    tektrader once it arrives i will post link etc. due between 4 and 8 august according to ups tracking number.

    Thanks, I might buy another one with GPS this time. Put the GPS one in the nose and the normal version on my helmet. These are so small its isnt an issue to have a few provided you have the cash.

    So if you are on a tight budget, what is a good buy that is at least as good as a POV...nice if its HD, but price is the driver here

    I was using one of these. The pic quality is quite good. Its pretty tiny for one of these style cameras. I fact I will sell the one I have for $40 of anyone wants it. I beefed up the mount a fair bit with an alloy bracket.

    or this one that does 720P and is smaller and lighter

    Bloody Amazon, I have seen this before. They will ship one version of something here but not the better one. :angry:

    Happened with my wifes Kitchen Aid mix master. Sorry to lead you up the garden path.

    You may have to use a shipping agent or look for another supplier that will ship it here.

    OK I've done a bit of reading now and it seems the goods. I'm assuming there's no issues using the GPS version in Australia?

    Now to find the best price...

    Oh yeah and the Dashware software looks good as well...where can we get it??

    Cheers

    Amazon Scotty, Even if you find a better price the postage from elsewhere will be more expensive. Amazon postage is $16

    I have had a fiddle with it and its very good. Should definitely have bought the GPS version. The software is fantastic very easy to use.

    Here's a link to their blog site. Terrific video here.

    You get a helmet mount as well as a goggle mount. You can run 2 of the high end units linked so you can sync video.

    video quality is perfect, best I have seen. You really do need 30fps for car stuff.

    The GPS version will blutooth with an Iphone (via an App) which you can use as a preview device to make sure its aimed properly.

    It is quite small and light.

    I SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT THE GPS VERSION :rant:

    Have you got a link to the DASHWARE software? Think I will get a GPS unit as well
