Porsche Crest My 2nd DE at Barber's

Hello all......

Just to share with you a vid I made from my first GoPro effort last weekend at the Alabama PCA DE at Barber's, 5 minutes form my house in Leeds, Alabama

YouTube - ‪Barber; a novice's view‬‏

Enjoy!!!! I did....I still have the great big smile on my face!!

Neil

Congrats Neil !

Due to the friggin Canadian postal strike my GoPro camera is in limbo at US customs in Illinois
since June 3rd and i missed three track days already with no camera ...
Can't wait to do like you and relive the moments,especially when you snap the tail out in second gear in the rain ... no spin,just a reminder to take it easy ... lol

Cheers!
Phil

Phil; sorry to hear about your GoPro..I did another session with it in the same position then did one with it on the side of my helmet...I am really impressed.

When you get yours, post it and let me in on the excitement!!!!


...this was my second DE....I am hooked for sure...

How much difference does the SW chip make?


Neil

Nice vid Neil and what an awesome track. Must have been a good time. I've put my GoPro on the top of my front bumper, THAT'S a really goof view!

Buckterrier.....that was my plan for the last session but I ran out of battery power

Even if I had, it would only have lasted for three laps as the kid in the corvette (the gratuitous American Muscle Car) wiped out coming out of turn 4 at the crest of the hill to where you can see the position tower and closed the session.....

It's amazing the sense of speed you get having the camera on the bumper. Here is a pic of the car with the mount, (right in the middle of the bumper). I'd like to mount it on the splitter for a session!
