Over-the-shoulder Onboards Are So Passé.
One of the best things about the GoPro is that you can cram the thing anywhere… like the nosecone of a Cooper T-33. Let’s take a spin around the 2013 Silverstone Classic in the JD Classics prepped Cooper.

Problem with this (or the nice thing about it, depending on your point of view) is that it makes anything look fast. A low-mounted GoPro on a riding lawnmower would make it look exciting. The output is also devoid of any context. Minus the sound and the outline of the nosecone, it could be a Cooper T-33 or it could be something far more mundane, really. Personally, I’d rather have more stuff to look at — gear shifts, steering input corrections, that sort of thing. For that, I think in-cockpit footage excels.
