So what is the appropriate placement for the sports cams now? Tried the chest mount on Austin and it completely sucks. Can't get a good position for both standing and sitting.
My post about this comes from a race last weekend where my friend Phil and I were neck and neck the entire 2nd moto
and I sure would have liked to have my video to review. At Vet Fest they didn't care. In fact, 2 people at sign-up had opposing
views. 1 said the rule applied only to professionals, the others amateurs. Track owner said go ahead and use it which was
fine with me!
It's my understanding this was done with safety in mind (post Brian Moreau's crash), ie protruding object on your helmet.
But couldn't someone invent a mount that breaks off during a crash? Couldn't Go-Pro put a locating chip inside like they have
inside phones to find it if it does come off? What about helmets that don't have a smooth shell, will they be the next item that
gets banned? Or is this a powerplay to get a camera company to become a series sponsor? If you can't tell I obviously think
this is not a good rule.
I'm interested in this also, about where to mount one.
Can't imagine hard mounting one to the bike would be very clear.
