Default NASA Road Atlanta HPDE-2

Learned a lot watching all the cars around me this past weekend. Lots of traffic but still had a blast. Put together a few laps from different angles. The rear looking camera really shows the amount of elevation change at the track.

Looks smooth.
Nice camera work. Sorry I missed ya though. I'm bad about not getting out to meet and greet (ask Khoi).
Come find me in December if you can make the event. I'll be standing next to the totalled red C5 FRC.

I tried to find some more video of you, but I think that is the only time I saw your car the entire weekend. My camera just happened to work itself loose on that lap and shoot to the side just in time to catch you flying by.

I need to get a TT guy to let me tape my cameras to their bumpers. They are tiny, cheap and don't weigh a lot. A 1:32-33 lap would look crazy

the sad thing is I do pro video as my day job, I have a bag full of lipstick cameras and bigger HD ones I can mount in the car. when I get to the track weekend though, I don't want to look much less touch a camera

Just my luck I decided not to run a camera this weekend for weight savings.

You mean you have better equipment than my $16.50 key fob camera from China?
