Talking 1st gen kicks *** (Sear's Point video)

For your viewing pleasure.

This is my in-car video taken earlier this summer in a NASA Group 4 (advanced) track session.

2 laps, 8 passes, all grins. Soundtrack to match. In order of (dis)appearance:

911, FC Race car, GTI Cup Race car, FB, 350Z, FC, 3000 GT VR4, 5.0 mustang.

You're gonna need Real Player for this one.

http://users.rcn.com/brandyc/movereal.rm

The Car: 1980 SA, '74 4port REPU 13B, big streetport, webber 48 IDA, RB full dual exhaust, Illuminas, eibach springs, ST front swaybar, and a big 'ol ducktail.

Nicely done.

I agree that the music (although somewhat fitting) would've been better served being in the background. All of us here care more about the car than about hearing the same line over and over.

Very nice vid. Good line Only thing I can say that may or may not help. Try to let the car roll out more on some of the corner exits (Not the esses of course). But very impressive nonetheless. That last pass in 15 was realy cool. Forget the complainers. You guys wanna see that without the music? Well get out there and do it ya pansies!

Man I'd love to take a crack at sears point. (I wont comment on your choice of car number). Is that a private club HPDE? NASA event?

Anyone want to convert it to .wmv or anything else? I really want to see it, but I hate Real Player and refuse to install it.

Due to popular demand, here's the vid in a quicktime format. I dont have enough webspace to host both this and the Real version, so the original link wont work anymore. Plus the soundtrack is now the sweet unadulterated sound of rotary on full boil.
