The video above was filmed in 1080/30FPS/med FOV.Still a huge drop in quality once it's converted on the computer.Straight from the GoPro through the HDMI cable,it's HD Network TV quality on my 50" TV.Looks unbelievable!But when I upload it to Youtube then watch it on my TV it looks at best like standard definition TV.
True in regards to the LCD bacpac, but I halfway regret buying the bacpac to begin with. It's great to aim the camera and see what you're shooting but it hogs the hell out of the battery and makes the camera bulkier. The windscreen does attach really easily with velcro if I'm not mistaken. I haven't bought it yet, but will eventually. It would definitely help over 100mph, or any mph for that matter.

I told you the video quality goes way down after converting! lol.. That's something I've been working on

I like my tires like I like my women: skinny, cheap, and dangerous when wet.

Yep, other tire things I intentionally omitted include rubbery, leaving skid-marks, and black.

LOLz!
In all seriousness,I'm not happy with the tire size.I want them as wide as possible,but the sidewall height is more than what I wanted.The tires were a hookup deal so I figured I'd try them out.What I'd love is a 255/35,but I don't believe anybody makes that size.I'd hate to go down to a 245/40.

I have some 33x12.50x15's that would look great on that, and they're Kevlar!

I'm running 255/35s on the front. It's a great set up!
