I don't think you'll regret it. They are so light, they can't hurt your merv stuff.

I'm having fun modding T's kart. It picked up debris, and locked up, so while I had the motor apart, I clocked the endbell for 17.5* of advance. It has far more torque than it needs, stock, so this will trade a bit of that for more speed.

It will happen. That tiny DVR is unbelievably tough. I got 2 cheap, and to see what they can take, I played drums with it as a stick (holding it by the keychain) on the edge of my steel desk for 1 min. It recorded the whole thing. No effect on it.

I'm figuring out a mount so we can ride along.
