RoadAmerica - October Video
 
Me again with another video from a previous RA event. This is a fun one, kinda long and a big file (50 meg) but worth it :-)

Its a split screen of me and my track dawg Bruce (drives a cobra R) having some fun terrorizing the field and swapping spots ;-)

It looks like you finally hooked up a microphone to the camera....sounds way better than all the air noise in your previous videos. I used to mount my computer mic in the engine compartment with a few papertowels wrapped around it and taped up....it sounded real cool when I was up in the mountains with my front bumper mount cam.

What kind of tires do you run, and what is your alignment specs?? i just aligned my car today because I am doing my first track day at Little Talladega GP this Fri.

Mine is -1.2 R camber +.12 ea. R toe

+5.3 F caster

-1.8 F camber +.20 total F toe

I drive the car on the street regularly and the only adjustment out of spec is the Front camber.


Nice videos BTW! =)

Those two engines sound awesome together. Stang for the bass, turbos, rotors and blow off for treble.

dgeesaman 11-08-04 09:37 PM

Those two engines sound awesome together. The 'stang is like John Paul Jones on bass, while the turbo and rotors are Jimmy Page on lead guitar.

...its coming, believe me it coming soon ;-)

damian 11-08-04 10:54 PM

nope, did not hook up a mic, just set the electronic windscreen and taped a piece of foam over the cam mic.

I used to run kumo ecstas (285/30/18) and now run used dunlop gt race tires....a bit narrower but more grip.

alignment is somthing like -1.5 front and -.5 rear., rest is realtivly neutral

Man I wish Barbers would do open track days, instead of making you pay $22000 to rent the track

kevinvr6 11-09-04 12:07 AM

ur vids are cool, whats up with the passenger? afraid to be lonely? thats extra cargo weight man

kevinvr6 11-09-04 12:14 AM

when you was following the gt3, were your tires starting to give out or were you just running a little hot into the turns?

damian 11-09-04 12:18 AM

tires were fine, i just went a bit fast in the carousel and did a little 'drifting' :-) that was it, the tires were fine...but yeah, i go 'hot' into every turn :-) thats the fun part LOL

afterburn27 11-09-04 07:22 AM

Come to VIR and give me a ride!

damian 11-09-04 10:38 AM

heheh actually I was very close to making an event that is coming up at VIR, but I already had the car shutdown for the winter and VIR is like 16 hours for me or somthign silly like that...dont forget, I have to drive the car to the track!!!

I plan on hitting VIR next season if possible, going with a big group, probably my corba R track dawgs. I definelty wont be fast the first time there, im a 'slow' learner when it comes to track layouts, it take me a full multi day event just to 'get' a new track. I usually dont start feeling fast until the 2nd or 3rd event at the new track.

kevinvr6 11-09-04 10:41 AM

what program do you use to editing your videos? i love the splitscreen stuff too!

FD3S_wanted 11-09-04 11:40 AM

Great video! It would be cool to see your race car in a future rxtuner.

damian 11-09-04 02:39 PM

i use a few for different things, i use adobe premiere pro for the assembly, simple titles, simple composits and final output, but i use 3d max for certain fx, combustion for complicated compositing, et, et

GooRoo 11-09-04 08:44 PM

And the photographer for all those pics wasn't credited either... Booooo! :D

I still think you need a full write-up in there with both cars.

damian 11-09-04 08:59 PM

yep, we will do that...and yep, you should have got credit for all the photos gooroo!!!


ill give you some credits right here too, ...GooRoo took the shot above :-)

GooRoo 11-09-04 09:05 PM

Sweet, thanks dood. :D

kevinvr6 11-12-04 10:42 AM

is that a white evo getting passed? in the splitscreen video?

kevinvr6 11-12-04 10:45 AM

wow this is really weird, when i dled the splitscreen video i only saw the mustang infront. i guess my dl got truncated. now i see the yellow beast! fun!

damian 11-12-04 10:58 AM

kevin, clear your browser cache then dl it again...its got cut off part way through and thinks its all there when its not.

damian 11-12-04 11:00 AM

GooRoo 11-12-04 11:07 AM

Here's a pic of the Evo in the turn where everyone got bunched up near the beginning of the video.
