Nice video. I'd enjoy more engine sounds instead of music though Only major change I'd suggest is your transitions be more smooth between turns. Harder turning eats speed and available power for acceleration.

The camera is the GoPro Hero HD.

Unfortunately, mounting the camera on the windshield drowned out all engine noise because of the wind. That's an important mistake I hope you all can avoid in your future camera endeavors.

NiCe LiNe !!
itsd odd to hear your instructor talk... I take it you dont have 2 way communicators. The wind noise is BAD... but still better than mine was - I can hear the motor sometimes

what camera?

was that your phone??

PS I like how you stuck to "your" line while following, that is tough to do.. itrs easy to follow "his" line

The rear facing portion of this video is from my gopro hero mounted on the rear bumper of my 944. The sound is quite good - it's away from the wind and next to the exhaust.

Thanks! He had communicators but one was broken. I was using a cheap Best Buy brand camera "insignia" I had a suction cup mount on the rear windscreen.
