Default Leh Keen Qualifying at VIR, 2014 TUDOR Championship AJRvWeatherTech GTD Porsche

Don't know if this full footage was previously posted. A search of this forum did not turn up anything. Magnificent to behold.

He doesn't trust that brake pedal! Then again, at those speeds, I don't know anyone sensible that wouldn't pump that pedal to make sure it was going to be there, when they needed it!

Video VBOX Pro, 4-camera. Start/finish is in T13.

Fun to watch.

You would, too, if you were driving that way and didn't want to fall ALL the way off!

I personally, dont like the small window cameras. the best part of incar footage, (in my opinion) is seeing the dash, steering wheel and view out the windshield. it gives you perspective of whats actually going on in and out of the car. the only thing that should be "windowed" is the footwork-cam. His other videos are much more watchable. its a simple change too... just put the camera behind the drivers shoulder!

dont you think this video is much more watchable? (sans the crappy video quality)

or better quality:

Interesting that you say that, he's right foot braking going into Turn 9 in the Uphill Esses and right foot braking again for Turn 10. He right foot brakes for T1 and NASCAR, too. #nosmokeandmirrors #bigballs

No buzz heard recently. Website hasn't been updated in a few years, last post on Twitter was June last year.

Hope he resurfaces. He's a talent.
