Title: Video Brands Hatch Track Day.
Post by: James B on June 25, 2008, 12:10:52 AM
Many thanks to Casey for organising a great day.

Had a few technical problems with the vid as I decided to use a couple of bullet cams and a mixer but the rear cam had a loose wire so it kept on defaulting to a four cam setting and cutting out and I didn\'t get any sound ........ grrrr.

Anyway, here it is.

Hi James,

Your music always makes it sound so calming and serene, whereas all those that do track days knows all you hear is the engine, the tyres screaching and the shouting of \'where\'s 4th gear gone NOW !!!\'

Shame about the loose wire, cool vid though.

PMSL - Dave, I couldn\'t have said it better!

James, despite your problems that is still a great video. You have a great car there, and some nice driving:Thumbs-up. I\'m so glad you came along, and I\'m sorry the morning was so frantic that we didn\'t have long to chat.

Hope to see you at a future trackday or other MRC event.

Great video James and smooth driving on your part.

After you passed me, I actually managed to stay with you for half a lap, until I slowed out of Graham Hill for a faster car, that then proceeded to hold me up. ;)

Hi Mate,

Really nice to meet you.

I thought the best part of the vid was the section of you swooping up behind me as I also got held up by that Nissan ..... your RX8 looked really good :cool

Only possible on account of the excellent late braking and cornering capability of the 8.:3gears-rh
