Has anyone used a GoPro Hero HD camera with the Modify mount and have any issues?
I'm thinking about going with this setup before going to Gingerman (and the Dragon in April).. Was curious about this setup.
Thanks

I put four of those little round rubber bumpers (feet) under the compartment hatch to stabilize it. I think they are about 1/4 inch diameter and can be found at Home Depot, Lowes, and most hardware stores.

For those of you with roll bars with a harness bar, here is a very cheap and pretty good solution:[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YlB_PFuWa04 [/media]
I followed his instructions and added some thin foam between the PVC and the bar (wrapped it around the bar so the PVC and clamps wouldn't mar the paint).
Here's an example in-car with my new mount. The camera is a relatively heavy P&S with a poor mounting system (plastic threads, completely off to one side of the camera). I imagine it will look even more stable when I drop in my Contour 1080 next year.[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLaRP5uuIaw [/media]
I was pretty happy with the windshield mount I was using before this, but I was starting to get concerned about using it on track since it has no positive attachment and so could become a liability (aka flying projectile) in an impact.
