A bunch of new vids from the SCCA Dixie Tour: A number of perspectives too...

I don't know who took this... just tripped across it on YouTube... but it's I think the same run as the video above, just from the outside. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WRvNfsYLptM

Front bumper: Mike Snyder (the car owner) driving:

One I think you guys will really enjoy w/Mike driving again (I'm much closer to the cones) I bet I'll pay for that comment--I'm sure.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jWlCqQ7cH2M

And finally one off the side of the car with me driving. Note the lack of distance to the cones, and you get a good illustration of how early you should be turning for transitions if you are going fast and playing the slip angle of the tires well:

Awesome vids! Great Heat too Sam!

In the video that shows the rear of the car for the pass, im shocked at how much the sidewall flexes, ive never seen that angle before, thanks for sharing.

What kind of camera(s) did you use?

I picked up the GoPro line, so thought I should have one. It's this one: http://www.stranoparts.com/partdetails.php?PartID=743&CategoryID=0&ModelID=30

nice driving!! wow

I would like to see that same run tried by a mild suspension car, just to watch the body roll difference if nothing else. Awesome run hugging the cones like that!

I figured by the "versatility" of your shots. I have used the regular with some success and recently picked up an HD version. I've only used the new one at an indoor go cart track and it didn't turn out so great. Aside from the lighting, it was kinda choppy. Did you use the default settings?

That's the rear tire flexing from side to side... amazing to see that it moved 1+ inches from one side to the next...

Great video Sam, thanks for sharing.
