GoPro equipped Nikon ...

You might have seen a few GoPro's or other small video cameras attached to fenders, hoods, bumpers of drag cars rippin' the strip BUT how about one attached to a camera shooting those cars ??? Well thanks to a good friend (Eddie Fountain) I was able to get my hands on one of those GoPros late last year. As Eddie and I talked about catching some cool clips I instantly thought about doing a photographers point of view video . After attaching the double sided tape mount to my camera I had to adjust the arms , though I felt like I was figuring out a Rubik's cube lol I finally managed a good angle . So...when time allowed I would hit REC before each run and then aim my Nikon to capture the usual photo . The video below is a collection of my favorite clips along with a few photos that I caught while shooting the short clips. 
I would like to thank Eddie and my sponsors...
