TT TD Video

Post by Shug » Tue Jun 12, 2007 11:11 am

Short video uploaded to Google, so poxy quality.

Taken from the Archos headcam that I gaffered to my helmet (easy, tiger) Taken on my first session of open pitlane, after which I discovered 8 psi too much in my rears and had added about 8 clicks of damping - you can see it push like a fecker through the hairpin. Had lent my cam to Iain by this point though :roll:

Wasn't enough opposite lock for you surely - either that or your car now handles :wink:

The Nitron/A038 combo did well in the grip stakes. Got it backing into the hairpin a bit later on, but it was understeering too much for me in this first run out...

There seems to be a anomoly with this recording as amazingly some other footage has been spliced in to it ......

Oh and who is the comedian in the car with you at 3.29 ?

Comedian = me :lol: I'm fairly sure I could smell Greg's shorts from my car!

It's just an edited chunk of about 12 mins I got in total.

Can you find the energy to punt i on stage 6 as I am keen to see the quality diff between a bullet cam and that directly off a hand held.

It'll have to wait mate, as I'm at work. I was impressed by it - not much in the way of quality degredation compared to a handheld and so much more flexible in how you mount it.

Here is an example of Archos Bullet Camera Knockhill footage on Stage 6.

Thanks to Kevin in his Caterham

Red flags cut short the fun :cry:
