Here's the video from my homemade camera setup at a track event last Monday at Virginia International Raceway in Danville, VA. We were on the full course, so at 3.27 miles it's a pretty good length. It's got some really nice elevation changes too which make it fun.
The first session I didn't get on video because I didn't have time to setup the camera rig in the car. It was in the rain and the whole session was under the yellow flag, so it would have been pretty boring to watch.
The second session was under yellow for about 10:00 cause the track was still a bit wet (but drying out). That was ok, because it was the closest I ever got to being on the tail of a 911 turbo!
Second session
After reviewing the second session I realized that the gargantuan rear view mirror had to go since it pretty much dominated the camera's field of vision. Made for a
much better video... Got some good passes in on this session, namely the cars that a Mini ought not be passing on a track. But hey, this
is the beginner group after all!
Green flag went down at ~5:00.
Third session
This is probably my best session here. I started up towards the front of the run group and got up to the front relatively quickly. Had the track in front of me clear for a right long time so i wasn't bogged down behind traffic. Tires start to get too hot about half way through, resulting in me going a little deep into some turns and the tires sreaming.
Fourth session
Any criticism, constructive or otherwise, is always welcome!
Here's the graphic of the track...
Sorry the Google video is kind of grainy, but it was the only place where I wasn't limited to a certain time length video or file size.
