NHMS, day one

Must be nice to never have to shift during the lap! :D Do you need a lower gear to avoid over slowing in the bowl as you run out of revs?


????


I shift the same number of times everyone else does???? :017:

And no, I over slow in the bowl because I'm slow...............

Are these trick questions??

No trick questions... It appears on the video that you are lifting prior than you normally would to preserve having to make an upshift and then a quick downshift in the bowl and in 11.

here are videos from Saturday's ITS and STL races:

To Mr Jeff Lawton:

arrrgh...sucks to be punted like that!

interesting video otherwise, but here is a $77 camera that will
give you 720p at 60fps, similar to the one we are using to make the
videos in the link above... I think you'll appreciate the
enhanced watchability that comes with increased resolution

Thanks Glenn. But I'm not so sure it's the camera? It does have to be connected with a Fire Wire cable with a card that slides into the card slot on the lap top. Maybe that's the failure point. I also have a pencil cam that came with the car but have yet to figure out how to hook it up............ I have a GoPro but even with new batteries it shuts off after 5 minutes or so. Not sure if somethings wrong with the camera or again, it's me................

Jeff is it a GoPro Hero2? That is the camera i use as well. I also put one in Dicks car for the weekend. You can use a free program from GoPro to down load as well.
 
Does using the 60 fps help much compared to the 30 fps version? I believe that at least with the GoPro, it cuts the field of vision down a bit.

Either way, it still produces really nice video quality.

How big are the files it makes? One of the problems I had with the GoPro were the files were huge and took for ever to down load and up load. Usually it took so long it would end up bombing out................

Pot calling the kettle black about lifting when you don't need to? :p

30 fps can be a bit choppy for action this fast. 60 fps doubles the size of the file however...
 
Fantastic pictures. I love the ones from T10...

I think, as Chris said, that the 60fps is much less choppy, and it
doesn't change the field of view at all, just doubles the file size.

After snipping the video to 20 minutes the file was 929MB (almost 1GB )
but it uploaded very quickly into vimeo (10 minutes?)

The raw output is a HD Quicktime file, and I run it through Pinnacle
Studio 14 to snip and add titles, and then output it as a DivX avi file
 
Hey Andy! Does that car make the 5" ride height rule? :D

I know right? That turn, while hitting the transition really does show some loads. And I have about 200lbs more spring rate than the SM's.

I hate when I see the SM's leave the shop lower than my ITA car but it is what it is!
 
Videos on the NHMS NARRC weekend in all their "glory". You want to train on becoming a better driver, watch Yiannis video, not mine. :) Race video from Sat is up, the other videos from Sunday are still uploading and will probably finish in 4 hours.

Yes, I know... I pussy foot through the oval when the tires are cold. And yes, I go hot into turn 3, at least too hot, twice.

Ok, back to work for me.

How disappointing, just as to get to my "incident" you stop stop the video. Now I cannot show everyone "bad" it was and how I toughed out the big one!!!!:rolleyes:
 
Sorry Dan, I think I deleted the original video... :(

Abhi, get your silver sharpie READY! cause I am goin' sign that impact crater I worked so hard for!
