best cam out there duh! Every1 knows that jeez you should go back to civics hehe j/k.

Actually i typed the same thing as the user above me's first reccomendation that's why i said nvm + i realy don't know jack about tpi except the cams they seem to like better.

Btw nvm means nevermind. Kind of a realy ghetto abreviation of sorts.
