Plus, I normally lead the runs so it is better to have the map and navigation on my phone and have a dedicated video camera ala GoPro.

Do you have an idea about where you are going to mount your GoPro?
After seeing Andrews vids from the in car mount, if it's sunny at all you will have a lot of glare on the uphill portion. I'm thinking of doing either the drivers side rear window looking down towards the front fender/wheel or...

Other cool angles would be
- At the base of the door to get that worms eye level
- Roof for normal circuit level
- Inside passenger side rear window looking out drivers side windshield to get road + driver
- Rear window looking back to see the pack (Lead Car)

Just some ideas I'm throwing around depending on how many 'runs' we do, and how many stops we make to D/L the files to a comp or how many SD cards I have...
