I think the worst part of that session was the 3 deep into 17.

Back on topic, I went thru the same thing with my camera. Just adjust height and everything gets better, or a roll bar mount.

You take T7 like that almost every lap, because you take it in 2nd and overcook it?
If you nail it, very fast through T7, if not you're holding me up....

But you held up quatro punto cero the best :-) :-)

that one was really late breaking. On the past events, the grip was changing too much read:
(grady, Clarke and Randy more than everyone going thru dirt)
I usually nail it, just can't do it after the 10th lap with you trying to ride my ***
BTW you hold me up on 7, and I showed you the fast line

Yep no more blocking, drive like a little old lady since you don't want to alienate any potential customers. Be nice to the Greek and his sidekick Dawg.

Only when your tires are good, after lap 5 not so much.
Randy, Clarke and Grady certainly don't help...

The best line is the shortest line.

It gets good at lap 6
BTW, I put more tape and fuzzy stuff over the microphone, maybe that will improve the sound..

lap 6 is amazing ... I love the aufwiedersehen that you gave to the 'camera'... I stopped driving after, until I saw you right into my bumper on the back straight. My tires were cooked, the track looked liked demolition derby, with so much dirt... Lap 7, turn 7 ??? what was that ? No grip at all. Watch turn 16 (lap 7)... no more grip !

Try to use a sock on the microphone. usually helps a lot.

Looking at turn 7 seems somebody is driving in their mirrors

Peter, actually there was NO GRIP anymore, couldn't stop... the grip was changing from one lap to the next, so much dirt everywhere.

LOL, welcome to TOYO RA1's after lap 6 on a warm day :-)

Too bad I stopped the video one lap early, the last lap I was all over the place as well with you on my ***. Every corner we were braking earlier and earlier and it was still too fast LOL. That was such a fun session...

Probably the best event and one of the most fun sessions I ever had. Not the fastest, but a lot of fun for sure.
I'm can't wait to drive again

I never get tired of watching this video. Nobody passes you two, and even Juan went into the dirt for a short period of time. Reter on turn 7 behing the silver car was scary! I am glad nothing happened.

Hey Jenk, got mine a couple of weeks ago and alot of what skxf suggested is spot on...

I'm suction mounting to the rear windscreen, centred and about 2-3" from the top of the screen... Running 1080-30 in medium FOV with spot metering on and putting a slight tilt downwards on the unit... On my first run, no whiting issues and great picture with good view out the front and good view of steering, gear inputs...

Haven't posted any on youtube that I can link you too but have a tiny snippit on fb (not sure if you'll be able to view it though)...
