Are you going to be trying to enter the autox this year at Wicked Big Meet?

Haven't used it in the car yet, but the build of the mount is very good. Definitely the right choice for a headrest mount.
GoPro is a GoPro. I've played with it a bit, user and data interfaces take some experimentation to figure out but you can read about everything online online. There is a real user guide on the GoPro website, doesn't come with a paper copy. Make sure you get an SD card. Phone app seems a bit buggy when connecting, but I turn unnecessary permissions functions off on my phone. Video quality seems great to me, haven't tried it in car yet.

You know, I thought about it, given how I'll probably have two or three events under my belt before WBB. I should probably register just in case.

Get your helmet, car, and the rest of your poop in a group for the first couple events. Focus on safety and lay of the land. Don't allow yourself to be distracted by dumb stuff until after you are no longer a newb.

I know, I know. I just get carried away. I think it’s the excitement build up. I like to be as prepared as possible and the fancy stuff is mostly to grade myself and see where I can improve. Not that the instructors won’t tell me but doesn’t hurt to keep a record of it. No more stupid purchases, I promise lol.

Probably a great idea I think the anticipation for people who don't get sorted out first is when we see foolish spin-outs. I'm on the fence. I want to go, but I've got a competing event with the wife in close proximity so I probably will concede and we'll do her thing
