Greg- Thanks for the feedback on the Contour camera! I do like the simplicity of operation. Also.... it's the only camera I have found that has GPS built in. You always hear about the Go Pro's but that's good to know the Contour is working good for you.

Sieg- Thanks for the video with the sample of the audio! The Hero 3’s are nice cameras… I’m glad to hear you were able to resolve the issues with the audio. You are the man on the camera stuff ...You sure spoil your dogs, Lol.


At this point I am leaning towards the Contour +2 because of the built in GPS. With the GPS you can document your speed and position while your recording... and then the software will display a layout of the track, car position, speed, and G-forces on the playback... pretty cool feature!


Here is an in car video of the Contour cam mounted in a Ferrari F40 at Sonoma Raceway (from the Contour website). Check out the info in the frame at the bottom of the screen. This is the GPS feature... it shows the track layout, car position, speed and G-forces.

I’m going to pick up the Contour camera just so I have more techno stuff to play with… next Friday I will be out the the track so I can test it out.
