Here's a few videos I captured from the in-car camera at Virginia International Raceway(North Course).... for those who are interested (about 8mb each):

Looking forward to seeing all the Honda-Techers up there this weekend and next for the full-course events.

Those were kick ***. My fav. was vid 4. Im not sure what turn it was, but the hard right hander going up hill after the VIR overhead sign looks like a kick *** turn. You real sausy in vid 4. Nice driving. What are the tires BTW? Sounds a little noisy for "real" R's.

Thanks guys... yes those are A032Rs. As probably noticed, this was only an instructor session at an HPDE, so when nobody else was around I was trying a few different lines through some of the turns... initiating some oversteer here and there...feeling out the car... and yes in video 4 and 5 the tires were starting to feel a little greasy.

Hey Robert, a friend was interested in what camera you were using, any special camera settings and what mounting system you used. Videos look great!

Brian..... Sony CCD-TRV87 Hi8mm... with a wide angle lens... and an I/O Port mounting system... with a vibration strap, which is very important. Thanks.
