Video of Bruntingthorpe Track Day
Discussion
My first attempt at video. Pretty rough and ready but good engine sound from my Rover V8 (best heard with a subwoofer). A bit of a laugh really. File size is approx 6MB. Get it here link. Once there click the link for "Bruntingthorpe Video" or right click and "download as".
Let us know what you think.
Oh, and that red blur that flies by at the start of the clip is TMS's racing Griff that did so well on Monday, WELL DONE CHAPS!

I'm always up for videos of Ph'ers hooning around in cars. Mail me and we'll link up!
Chim 450 - you were very gentle out there! Next time try lashing a tripod into the passenger seat with duck tape, and sticking the camera on that - it's cheaper than a dedicated camera mount (and you car goes faster 'cos your mate's not in it holding a camera!!)
I was there 2 years ago in the Cerbera on a Trackfun organised day.
Really good fun
They had an open pit in the afternoon and I was out on one run for about 20 mins (got carried away
) first time I ever had it sliding around (on track) particularly when I was going flat through the kink towards the 1st corner but I guess that's why my handle says FourWheelDrift. Although I noticed in your video you had a little chicane near the pit entrance/exit, we had a straight blast from the last corner through the left kink to the first corner. But had 2 cone chicanes on the back straight.
Don't know what gears you were using in a 4.5 Chim but I was only using 3rd & 4th in a 4.2 Cerbie. Occasionally using 2nd on the last tight corner if I was behind someone.
If only they could give it a good clean up before you go out to get rid of all the stones.
