Peter, where will you be hanging out? I'd like to meet with you.
Jerry, I'll be under Chris Musante's tent after noon on Thursday. See you there.

They (the HD GP version) should be in about the same time as the all-in-one. Three to four weeks?

Looks good cant wait for this to be available. I bought a Solo DL for the ability to sync in the smartycam when the HD is available.

The internet rumours would suggest:

SmartyCam HD: $999
SmartyCam HD GP: $1,099

but I am open to be proven wrong.

Jerry, on the lap in the video, I guarantee you he's not within .20 of Spencer's lap. Dave's right on THAT lap....

In JG's defense, he did get turn 1 down much better. I saw Spencer's lap (it was in my '10 Cup...) and he carries SO much speed TO the apex that I think for a while JG went a little overboard and sacrificed the exit. He reeled it back in later in the weekend and evened it out a bit.

I've been told by AIM that the units will be the same price.

Pedro, I agree that the lap in the video is not John's best. My point to VR was that you can look at one lap and assume that it represents the driver's ability in every corner, especially a lap during the race. JG did very well in T-1 on his good laps. In addition, the post was to show the quality of the new video camera, not to critique the driver.........
