I've used the HD Go Pro for a couple of years. It is simply amazing and I highly recommend it.
When I mount it on the roll cage between and behind the two front seats, the video shows all the gauges in detail, along with the entire view from outboard of both external rear view mirrors through the entire windshield. In full 1080p. The only problem is that a 25 minute video is like 6 GB.

That's the standard lens. With the 1080p format, you have a very wide field of view. Even with that field of view, I can read the speedometer and tachometer.....
One problem that I did have, I can't play it back off of a DVD on my TVs Bose 321 system. I believe that the files for the HD Go Pro are MPG 4 files. Perhaps it will play on a Blue Ray player. Otherwise, I just watch it on the computer.

I would recommend playing with a GoPro at a store before you buy one. While the cameras seem well built and robust, the user interface is horrible. My friend actually missed recording four session of a track day because he actually turned the **** thing OFF when we went out on track, and ON when we can back in so he got hours of us bull ****ting and smoking cigs. . . .

+1 on the gopro comments--just be sure you know what you're doing. Without a preview, you can't be sure.

The camera brings up a red light on the front when recording (at least on mine). I just look for the red light on the camera and know that its cooking.....

Well I guess no Z28 to bang heads with the BOSS, a ZL1 to compete against the Shelby???

So bottom line is looks like they put a Camaro body on a CTS-V platform and are targeting the GT500. At that estimated weight along with the supercharger, it doesn't seem to be the ideal road course car they advertise. That said, it would give a stock GT500 a run for its money I think. Better suspension and brakes, but worse power:weight ratio.

Champion Ford, Katy, TX has a new Performance White Boss #1791(I believe) on the showroom floor. Asking a $5k ADM for a total price of $48,100. They also have a great looking Performance White Mach1 on display that has a functional shaker hood scoop. Think the sticker was $34,700.
