Some R56 Autox video
First time taking video in the R56. Having a good time at Marina:
http://www.vimeo.com/1141581
The car is completely bone stock. I'm running 16x6.5 rota slipstreams with Falken azenis Rt-615 215s
The falkens pretty grippy. The R56 is a really fun car to autox. People are always really shocked. I've had a few experiences where people smugly ask me what my last run was to only be surprised when I got a faster time. Hahaha. I get good comments like 'that can't be stock!' 'what do you have in that thing?' I'm pretty sure most of those guys think I'm a liar. My answer always is 'look at the ride height, if It wasn't stock would I have it riding so high'
Here is a new video from Sunday... much tighter course. Pretty crazy:

very nice quality and i enjoyed it - thanks for posting!
I'd sure like to try that course - it looks almost relaxing compared to what i am accustomed to!
I usually see courses that have on average one gate per second - the Devens NT course had thirty seven bends requiring significant direction change (.7g or greater) and seventeen significant braking points in 60 seconds...
All the cones in the video seemed to make the course direction obvious also - almost like a little road racing venue!
Nice to see the variety that exists across the sport.
Cheers,
Charlie

Do you have a limited slip in your car? I have a quaife sitting on my living room floor waiting for install at the end of the month, and can't wait to see how much of a difference it makes. Curious if you were a one wheel peeler or not as I have the hardest time getting traction on mine on the corner exits.

I am using a panasonic hdc-sd1. It is a hd flash based camcorder. I mount it with a "cruise cam" camera mount. You can google it. Also CCD based cameras are better than CMOS based cameras. Tape based cams can drop out in a car situation. This cam has good image stabilization.
