    Default VIDEO: Multiple acceleration runs of my Superleggera!

    So I finally broke down and bought myself a GoPro Hero HD - I received it a few days ago and I have to say, I'm extremely pleased! It's extremely stable under speed and super compact. It makes it very convenient with the adhesive mount as it takes literally three seconds to mount it in the car, as the adhesive mount stays on the windshield at all times. If anybody's on the fence for a GoPro Hero HD, buy it already!

    I compiled a quick video of my testing.. what do you guys think of the stability and mounting location/angle?

    Here's a direct link to YouTube: YouTube - Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera 10-160mph Acceleration - GoPro Test

    It's a good mount, I would just try not to make runs driving towards the sun, lol, makes for bad glare in the video

    I agree - I wasn't planning on uploading the footage, but rather was just testing out my shiny new GoPro.. although I have to say, it truly shows how fantastic it performs when being blinded by direct sunlight. The footage was taken around 7 PM, so the sun was nearly eye level.

    Nope. I thought it was a bogey too - did you hear how quiet I kept the car as I was approaching?
