Raptor 700 footage shot entirely with a GoPro Motorsports HERO Wide cam, both on and off the bike. Every shot in the video was filmed with the same single helmet cam. Lots of setting up, making passes, then moving to the next location. All the filming and editing were done in 48 hours over a weekend. All the video was edited simply in iMovie on Ryan's laptop. Thanks for watching.

We mounted a Motorsports HERO Wide just to the right of the rear view mirror in a Spec Miata to show you one of the best views in motorsports. Be it a race car or a street car, mounting your wide angle GoPro camera to the right of your rear view mirror with a slight left/down tilt gives you this great view down track while still showing your hands on the wheel.

Enjoy this Motorsports HERO WIDE compilation video we made for our retail partners. This video will be playing in track shops and auto/moto parts retailers around the country starting next week...we're psyched!
If you are a GoPro retailer, please contact your sales rep and ask them to get you a DVD copy of this goodness for your shop.
To all of our fans who are freaking out on our new cameras...we are freaking out with you :-)

We hooked up with Chet Huffman Motorsports to test our Motorsports HERO Wide camera on their championship winning CORR truck. Looks great as long as you don't catch one of those roost rocks in the teeth...

We've got a lot of experience racing sports cars, open wheel cars...flogging our street cars on country roads and so on. We realized we need to get into a 125cc kart to test our GoPro cameras in what is the equivalent of strapping yourself to a paint shaker. Here we mounted a Motorsports HERO Wide camera on the mouth of our Arai GP-5K and took it for a spin. What's killer about this mounting location is that you cannot see the camera through the viewport but it gives you a front and center view of your line, your wheel, hands and shows you when you start looking into a turn. The side of the helmet at eye level is another very good mounting location if you want to see above the wheel a bit more. Notice the great sound with zero wind noise.

GoPro picked up a Mitsubishi EVO X to help develop our ever evolving line of on-board motorsports cameras. Since street cars don't have roll bars we include a top of the line suction cup mounting system with the Motorsports HERO Wide camera system. Strong enough to mount on your car's exterior, your plane, your boat, etc...it works perfectly as a window mounted camera to give you a professional "race" like viewpoint of your spirited drives. In this case we're on a walkie talkie scouted backcountry road showing why every rave review of the GoPro Motorsports HERO Wide is right on target.
The EVO X ain't half bad either :-)
Top tip for GoPro customers that want throaty engine sounds with their GoPro camera mounted inside the car. Unscrew the housing lens and save it for when you need the camera to be waterproof or you need to protect the camera lens from flying rocks, etc. Inside the car you don't need it and the sound of your engine will be much louder.

GoPro recently added a Mitsubishi EVO X to it's R&D garage to further develop it's line of motorsports cameras. Here's some tarmac rally testing of the new Motorsports HERO Wide camera. The image is extremely stable even though the camera was cantilevered way out to the side with the included suction cup and extension mounts. Notice how rough the road is and yet the video stability is still uber stable.

GoPro sponsors Yamaha so that it can have aces like Josh Hill test its new products. In this case, Josh is giving the new Motorsports HERO Wide edition camera some high altitude testing around the X-GAMES supercross track. Watch and listen as Hill chases his buddy Hany 'round the office...

Suction cup mounted Motorsports HERO Wide camera from GoPro. These small boat sailors stay busy...especially when they capsize.

We rocked out to Loretta Lynn's to test our new Motorsports HERO Wide camera on some rippers at the races. This comes from our man in the field who edited the video down with poor compression and he chopped off the top and bottom of the video during editing...so we're not seeing the full wide top/bottom view...but still a good test of what's coming end of August. Rock and roll...
