Tino I have the HD. It seems to pick up a bit of wind too, but I have no idea how it compares to yours. From what I read it's a fair bit better though.
It has the suction mount for motor sport as well as 5-6 '3M sticky' mounts for helmets/hard-to-reach interesting locations in the car and what not.

It had a trip across the asphalt at 80ks an hour on the Colin cruise, so the lens of the waterproof case is scratched. Other than that it's sound. The fact it fell off was my fault for mounting it in a huge rush (trying to beat some lights! I did beat the lights ...wasn't worth it obviously).
Fobz has my SDHC memory card so I can't try it out and see if the camera focuses past the scratches. I doubt it will though; it's got quite the aperture and picks up stuff near and far. At best they'd look like a big smudge on screen.

If you're keen to try it, I've order the lens replacement kit which is express couriered overnight to chosen delivery address. It should be delivered to me at work on Friday. Depending on when you're leaving, I could get the camera & card to you myself on Friday late arvo. If you're leaving earlier then that, it's likely the lens kit wont be delivered to me on time and you'd have a crap picture. Not worth it.

Break it you bought it.

Reimbursement: you pick some sweet original angles and do some sweet hot laps.

Deal or no deal?
