Sorry this is still loading to Youtube give it time! The contour camera is a bit of a dissapointment, The LED readouts of the AFR and boost gauges are not visible. The dash readouts are ok 1/2 of the time.
She is pulling 5 lbs of boost at WOT and the AFR is reading 11.5 jsut where it should be. The skis are off the ground at launch out to 90 or when I let off. The field was small and I could only do short bursts but it is amazing and the simmons skis made a huge difference.
I am loving this sled more and more as I get it dialed in.

JVC Adixxion Cam for me... But then again I'm usually the non-conformist in the bunch.
Pound for pound it is the better camera though

Not to continue the hijack, lol! But that jvc looks bad a$$! Love the goggle mount and bar mount. Do you have the newest one or the first one.
Hey I bought the Viper to get the free camera now you say its no good? Actually it works great - I have it mounted Under the viser of my Motorfist helmet. I can see everything it sees and all of the buttons are visible with the helmet on. No wind noise from it in there either.
The flash rate of the didgital gauges is out of sink with the FPS of the camera at the highest setting. I can slide the bill of the helmet up to see out ahead and pull it down to be on the gauges and the skis.
I am picking up a bigger card and spare battery today. The 10 min vid on Highest setting took up 4 gigs so about 40 min of video on base 4 gig card.
I will get some in the woods trail shots this week.

No I am leaving the box stock. If I change gearing then I have to play with clutching again. This has been 5 weeks of work I am now ready to just ride the rest of the season.
I actually like the contour and it was free

Get the gen 2...they made a lot of improvements over the 1st one.
Better sensor, double the fps in 1080/720, added a gyro for better image stabilization, and a couple other small improvements.
The only "complaint" is wind noise but that's fixable in video editing software. They offer an accessory dive housing if you need a case.
You can wifi cooonect it to your cell and then use that as the remote control... And you don't have to buy any additional accessories to do that which is cool.
Get extra batteries!
The Contour came with the diving case - I don't shoot that much video to make it worth buying another camera than this one. I will use it on rides with buddies to document their Hi jinx and maybe a few of my winter camp sites.

Yamadog, where did you get the bracket to hold your boost gauge and air fuel gauge? Nice Vide! Can't wait to my turbo in. Too darn cold here. -47 with the windchill. Garage isn't heated.

Outo meter makes a great bullit shaped cup the gauge fits in with mounting bracket. They are $24.99 each at Pep boys they stock them here.

Yamadog. Where did you get your power from to your gauges. I'm in the process of hocking up the gauges just curious where you got the power from.
