[VIDEO] Track Day @ WP 28/7/2006

Post by swabio-ACT »

Well here is my first attempt at doin a vid off the tank cam on the track.....

It is a pity I only had enough battery in the early part of the day :( I tried to take some later in the day but the battery kept dying super quick :( Oh well I shall try and get another battery, or failing that only take it out later in the afternoone once I have got my shit sorted on the track! Ie lines and gear selection.... there is way to much use of first in this clip!

good stuff swabio.

what is the track surface like out there?
some of the shots make it look like there has been some patch ups to the road on one corner in particular.
not sure if that is just rubber marks though.

Im a jealous as hell. good on ya.
hopefully i can get down there and do a track day in the next month or so.

Cheers Sulli,

I had a great day... although am disappointed that I took the camera out in the first sessions, as it would have been much better to do it in the afternoon, well at least i know it works well now! I will do that next time :)
