I hope someone else was holding his camare! Cause that would be really stupid driving that fast trying to focus a recorder on the speed! But that was a cool video! Could anyone tell what was wrote on the screen when it shut down? I'm watching it on my iPhone and couldn't see it reel good!

I wonder if you tuned it out or how ever you take governed off like I have read about if it would still say that? I know they did it for safety but you shouldn't put 180mph speedo in a car and shut her down at 155! And thanks for telling me what it said.
