Has anyone used the new Flip Video or Flip HD on track?

UM, yes, that's true. walls, trees, crappy pavement, jersey barriers.... and BMWs :-) But it's what we've got in Seattle. Portland and the new track in oregon (Oregon Raceway Park) are within a reasonable distance but it should make sense now why i gush about Barber.

Going to try the Flip HD at PBOC Winterfest next week. Never used it in the car or been there before. It has all the makings of a royal cf.

Flip is great as a second camera in the car, cannot do any kind of data acq or overlay as far as I am aware. Only minor drawback is the mic.

Got ya. Might want to look into optimizing the conversion settings of the vid before uploading to YouTube if you haven't already. Just seems to lack a lot of the sharpness that I would expect to see from HD video, based on what I've seen from uploading my own HD vids to YouTube and Vimeo.

Heres a Flip HD up loaded to you tube I shot of a friend in Manhattan on new years day.
