V.I.O. POV.1 - Price drop!

We just received notice today that the popular V.I.O. POV.1 has dropped in price again. Now only $599.95!



I've said it before, and I'll say it again: This is without a doubt, the most robust video camera I've tested to date. It also happens to be the easiest to use (passes the computer illiteracy test.) How tough is it? There's a video on here of it being smacked and spun in a Spec Miata...it doesn't even flinch.

More details on the unit here: VIO-POV1-DIGITAL-VIDEO-RECORDING-SYSTEM

MARRS 4, Summit Point - Spec Miata Crash

WARNING: There is some post incident PG-13/R language. Might want to turn down the volume a tad!



Footage was taken using a VIO POV.1 Camera System - notice how the feed doesn't "flinch" at all. Thanks to Bret DePedro & RP Performance for the video - glad you made it out okay!

Team OG Racing Member: Quantum Rally Sport Promo Video

Just got this from Team OG Racing Members Josh & Jeremy Wimpey. It's a promo video for the upcoming Rally Idaho, July 10-11 (Round 1 of the 2009 MaxAttack! 2-Wheel Drive Rally Championship):



Some more info from Josh Wimpey:

MaxAttack! was founded in 2006 and has quickly become known as the series where talent means more than money. where determination can overcome inadequate equipment, and where camaraderie extends from one team to their rivals.

It should be no surprise to anyone who has ever driven a mk2 GTI in anger that two of the top teams entered in the first round of the MaxAttack! championship are driving one.
MaxAttack! Co-Founder Eric Burmeister has this to add:

"Each team is a team of brothers.
Each team is known in their respective regions as being extremely talented...some of the best driving/codriving talent in the nation.
Each team has mid-to-high spec level clubman Group 2 cars. Same model, similar preparation.
One team is near the Atlantic, one team is near the Pacific, and both have their sights on the Jake Himes Cup. And Rally Idaho will be the first time they run head to head.
Moreover, both are the type of competitors that CRAVE competition. They don't pick their events to try to win trophies, they pick their events to race against the best.
Good luck to all four of youse guys... Tom, Don, Josh and Jeremy."

MaxAttack! is THE venue for the best in 2WD rally action in North America. Period.

Wish us Luck!

Good luck guys!
