Over a 12 hour day, I would 1/3 of it. Only the complex corners and big elevations. For the most part, anywhere someone died it seems............... That corner where Snicker Man bought it claims alot of bikes. I came over the bridge last year to a guy waving a red flag and running down the middle of the track and yep at the bump a biker had gone off hard. So you stop and help out until a crew gets there.

Paolo, make sure that you pull the camera shot back to show as wide a picture as possible. It doesn't matter if you see some of the interior (actually your hands on the steering wheel would be good) just as long as you can see the full width of the corners.

How old is this? In car video has been banned there. Guess he got away with it. Probably hid the camera inside the muffins.

That entrance is not monitored the way the main one is. It is an "on only" at Breidscheid and if your going to try and vid yourself being an idiot.... perfect place to do it. According to the gate keepers, one of the main reasons they banned video was drivers trying to adjust their cameras while driving and causing accidents. Tour bus's have plenty of cameras pointing out the windows when you pass them.

That was one short drove.
LARRY - when instructing Paolo on camera etiquette, please ask him to not do the 7 second lap special. We all seem to have too much invested in him.

Yes, Rick, it looks like some of you, and you know who you are, have invested tons of your valuable time educating me. And this is just the beginning.....
Have fun at VIR.....
