Looking for a motorsports video camera

[mmm240]

Specifically for track days with my bike. But I'm sure I'll slap it on the car too. Looking at the GoPro, but don't need HD (still rocking tube tvs). Would like something that will work at night too.

Only people that don't need GoPros, are the ones that already have them.

Personally, I hate gopro. If I were to throw down that type of money, it's for a contour.
With the contour GPS, you can do basic data-logging. It creates a record of your speed and gps data that you can turn into very basic telemetry. An example of this is:

For a small price, you can get something like DashWare that will also strip the telemetry from the video so you can inspect it also via graph.

The mounting for the Contour is also worlds better than the bulky GoPro. You can see it on my helmet in the pic below, very sleek and very secure.

I recently installed a racekeeper in one of our customer cars, it works quite well. Not sure how it'd be for a bike application.

Race keeper is beast (I've seen the setup in Hoelscher's car and it's awesome), but if he doesn't have a HD Tv, that's going to be way out of his price range. If he wanted to get a true data logger, for a bike, something like what I have on my kart (AiM MyChron 4) would be more optimal.

This Ive put my gopros through hella and they still work. I had my SD GoPro fall off my car and it still works. Ive had mh HD one get a bath in a fish tank and it still works.
I like to make time lapes videos with mine.
