I've been playing with the new video camera (thanks Santa) and have been converting some VHS stuff to digital format, so I'm posting this for Greg. This video is in-car footage from Greg's first class (ITA) win at PIR in only his rookie season. Thanks to Demian for hosting the video. Enjoy.
Video #1 The race start. Nothing too spectacular when the flag drops, but keep your eyes on the blue VW. 7 megs.
Video #2 Battling with a 240. 4 megs.
Video #3 Watch the rearview as Greg gets dive-bombed by a RX-7 in T-10. 2 megs.
Video #4 Chasing down that RX-7. 4 megs.
Video #5 Finally getting around the RX-7. 4 megs.
Video #6 Traffic and a battle with another RX-7. 6 megs.
Video #7 Taking the victory lap with the checkered flag. Keep your eye on the rearview. Oops

Matt,
Greg will have to answer your questions about the camera and mount. I think he has the IOPort mount though. He should read this today.

Road rage?? I may get a little animated around a certain Canadian RX-7 driver but come on...
Yeah the mount is the IO Port. The Video camera is a new generation Sony Hi-8 with the built in jiggle control (whatever they call it...). The mirror is an All-View - same chit as the NASCAR guys use. I really like the mirror. It's a little spendy but worth the ability to see all around.
John - I get an error message re: compressor error. It may be my firewall @ work or something...it's not like I need to see this nonsence anyway

Greg,
Good race footage. Good thing you are a clean driver. That RX-7 driver was trying to get the chrome horn from you cutting across your nose like that. (clip #6)

Cool vids! What kind of engine is in that car? Just the RS?
I think that is hilarious how the flag flies off!

96 SOHC VTEC - It's a stock RS b18 engine... nothing fancy
Mike - I agree. If my bumper cover wasn't so clean and straight I might have bumped him on the back straight. This is the same Yahoo who turned in on me and put a big dent in my front fender earlier in the summer...
That's the reason for the profanity on Clip #6
Greg ~ who respects RX-7's, but will never like them

I finally saw a couple of the vids today, wow. Now I am starting to get scared to go out there. Quite a different perspective from the schools and lapping days!
I liked the pass on the RX7 at around turn 6? that is the same line that I have been shown and use at PIR, so it is nice to see it work.
