To record the drama?

I wish there was a local MINI Dealership, like our Honda, Subaru, Mazada and VW.

Lololol

No you get one with a purchase of 4 DWS's
If everything seems under control, you're just not going fast enough.

J:  Another good reason to buy the DWS's.  The drama of crashing through the snow, or anything else for that matter, might be interesting to record.

Does anyone make a camera that can be triggered remotely to record when desired?  I have seen Posts on NAM about 12vdc DVR's and their associated cameras(up to 4).  Pretty cool stuff.

Yes, I did send for the camera.  It will be interesting to see what it can do...

I found a camera on dealextreme.com that supposedly records in a loop and will start recording automatically when power is applied. You could set it to record automatically when you start the car, or make a switch for it. Not sure about the quality. It should get here in another week or so. It cost about $120 if I remember correctly. 

I took some videos of crashing through snow... I'll post on youtube after editing out the boring parts... :-)

The Flip UltraHD  video camera is the promotional give away. 

So far the tires have been great.  I like the fact with the 215's the speedo is more accurate to the speed I am traveling (according to my hand held GPS) about .8 slower but that is just a guess…
