well as you all know I am no video expert...here is the latest... I cut out the straights, sorry about the sound, at least I figured out how to turn it down - not sure why the resolution was cut in editing? kinda pixely

anyhow....I have about another 30 minutes and in one turn I get squirrely coming up on a large smoke cloud... will try and get it trimmed down - hope this isnt too boring

I'm far north, at around 69 degrees, a good bit north of the arctic circle. It's so far north that the sun doesn't rise above the mountains from November to February. When the sun do return though the snow goes away quickly and I'm happy to report that spring is here now. The roads have been clear of snow for a couple of weeks, and many have swapped to summer tires. I'm waiting for new GT3 wheels and won't swap until they get here though. It's not all bad, to compensate for the long winter we have an awesome summer with midnight sun from May to July. My town (Tromsø) is the fifth largest in Norway so it's urban in every way and a nice place to live. The British publication "Rough Guides" recently listed five locations on earth that you must see before you die, sort of a bucket list for travelers. Tromsø is one of the five locations(!!). The worlds northernmost Porsche dealership opens here in August which will make it even better

Nice vids Ed. Is your camera roof mounted? Have you tried mounting your camera inside the 911, that way your sound should be all motor, no wind. I think your lines are decent, and your Porsche(the front anyway)looks great. Looks like a great track. Do you use a GoPro?

Thanks Steve... in this pic you can see the camera

I have tried inside and even made a couple mounts trying to get closer to the windshiel, it become a distraction pretty fast so I am still experimenting.. anything too far back and the outside overexposes...not the most ideal camera, but cheap

I hadnt washed the car for about 2.5 months the day of the DE... I cleaned it up AFTER
