Mulsanne Straight Night Video

[FartKong]

Just going through my pictures and videos from this year and thought I'd share this of the Mulsanne at 2am. It's always a mission to get to but it's well worth it as you can see!

That's awesome.

My first time at Le Mans we tried to get the restaurant on the other side of the track to where you were. Iirc it had gone ticket only or something equally boring.

Great vid.

Superb, perfect position to get the fast pass plus the downshifts too. Thanks for posting!

[FartKong]

Cheers, it was interesting seeing them testing the brakes too before the chicane. Never noticed that before.

Awesome video. Getting to the straight is my objective for next year.

[WildCards]

Even better if watched on 2x speed!

That's fantastic. I thought getting to the Mulsanne was quite tricky?

First year this year and watched a lot at Porsche curves. A bit st arnage, after ford chicanes, a little around Dunlop Bridge and the esses and a bit around tertre rouge. Was absolutely fantastic.

Going to go through all my video footage later!

Great video! Was great meeting you guys as well even if our windbreak did kind of cut us off for a fair chunk of the weekend! Hope the heads weren't too bad for the journey up on Monday!

It is. It's a slog through some really dense brambles etc in the forest and we were all covered in cuts and my jeans were ripped to shreds. We were soaking with sweat by the time we got there. Was still worth it!

Cheers good to meet you all too. Hopefully we didn't keep you awake too much! Taking voltarol for my back pain then having a load of wine wasn't such a good idea on the last night before the long drive home. I was wrecked. The good thing is it pretty much knocked me out for the night so I wasn't too bad the next day.

Does Dirty Den st in the woods?

Brilliant vid fartkong- how did you get there? I fancy a sneaky look next year..

[muppetdave]

Excellent work, would honestly say it's quite possibly the best black ops video I've seen - quality sounds and the fact you're not flinging the camera around constantly.

Superb video! Top marks for not getting spotted / stopped / arrested!

[darrenw]

Brilliant video, I've just been watching it on repeat with the volume up very loud. Not as loud as actually being at the circuit though!

[eastlmark]

great,just seeing the cars in the dark is such an experience, not much chance of doing that in the normal areas these days. Some of us remember the time none of it other than by the timing line was light.

So were you actually lying on the grass at the side of the track or did you have the camera on a stick? Either way, brave filming.

Good to meet you guys as well. I have to say you were very tolerant neighbors. No worries on the windbreak. After spending a good deal of the last night round at your camp on Sun (after all my lot had passed out). It totally made sense! That prevailing wind drove us bonkers.
