Western Off Topic
Contour is good and has comparable qualities but IMO the GoPro was designed to be more versatile. Look at all of the different mounts and options for it, for instance...
Really I don't think you can go wrong with either. If you want to check the GoPro out in person before buying one, I'd be happy to let you use mine for a track day.

Mounting options aren't really a big deal to me,as it'll just be on a rollcage mount.My main priority is picture quality and second is sound quality.There's a lot of air coming through the car,and I don't just want wind noise.
The new HD 2 GoPro has up to a 170 degree FOV.
Yes, the rear spinning view was with Bryan's contour. The sound picked up soooo much better on it and it honestly seemed simpler(as if the go pro is complicated) to use. I'm not sure about the capabilities of it versus the go pro though.
I have my gopro mounted upside down in front of the rear view mirror and I can change a setting on the camera to make it flip the view instead of having to do it via software. Id hope the contour could do all that as well.

I really want my wheels back. Just my luck that a tire in the temporary set I'm running developed a leak in the sidewall and won't hold air
walked out to go to work over the weekend and the wheel rim on front passenger's side was touching the ground. Currently running 16" style 5's with bald-ass Kumho Ecstas in the rear (extra fun in the snow and rain), and 15" donuts in the front. Gotta call Wheel Works tomorrow. New M44 block (future long term build) and MHW tailights (I'm rare part hording
) are in transit. All this shit and I'm moving in 2 weeks. Hello STDs, drugs, and fast wimmenz.
EDIT: January 3rd and this is the first 2012 post in Western, damn this place really is dead.

They're only like 20" tall though(205/50),which will probably give you the super raked redneck stance.Go for it.
yessir.
and I turn 21 2 weeks after I move in.
Haha with those in the front and the bald Ecstas in the back (not to mention 140 raging horsepower in the middle) I'd lose it for sure. I'll call WW today and let you know, I don't trust those old Yokohamas as far as I can throw them. 
EDIT: called Wheels Works and he said Friday (Jan. 9) they should be done so no comp. tires needed (fingers crossed)
and calling my shop tomorrow to have the coilovers put in.
