Anyway, here's my first 15 second video using the suction cup mount on the windshield.

I'm trying to upload an edited version of a rather long test I did with it mounted on the front bumper.
Bad link... doesn't work.

Wow, I love the front bumper view. Looks like about 6" off the ground! Any risk of rock damage there?

And damn, your roads are wide open... I would've been on the bumper of a camry in about 15 seconds around here (no offense, Nez). You were at legal speeds the whole time, right?

It is only about 6" from the ground. The camera actually lives in a little plastic waterproof case so rocks would probably only damage the case. The camera is cheap enough that it would be upsetting but not devastating if it did get destroyed by a rock.

Yes it was street legal speeds or there abouts the whole time.

20mph right out of my drive way, 35-40mph past the cop and up to 60mph at the fastest point. I think it looks way faster from the front bumper.

Nice. I would have guessed 80-90mph easy.
