No damage, that's just the wrist strap that got blown in front of the lens. The camera was so light that it moved a little. If I try it again, I'll put a small sandbag on top, and secure the wrist band.

Ok, I couldn't tell if there was a casing that got hit. The super low angles certainly do help enhance the illusion of speed, it's why bumper cams rule! Just an experiment/excersie in technique or part of something larger?
