Thought some of you might be interested in some GoPro experimentation I did yesterday. My team mate and I currently race in Caterhams but are hoping to graduate to GT4 next year, and a work colleague who's helps engineer with one of the GT4 Challenge teams kindly sorted me out with a brief test at Silverstone yesterday.

Anyway...enough of that. My experimentation with some crazy GoPro mounting worked pretty well. Although it's a little bit higher than eye line, it gives a reasonable impression of what it was like first person! It even picked up a reasonable amount of the sound for a change!

That is excellent. Thanks for sharing. As a retired racer it put me right back in the chair!

Sorry - can't watch it - gives me a headache!

Which GT4? The Aston GT4 Challenge? Or the GT4 class of British GT? Both a little rich for me!

It was a GT4 Challenge car. They're fundamentally the same spec apart from running Michelin slicks instead of Avons. Apologies for the motion sickness!

Looks remarkably familiar. I spent a lot of time in one of those (and its big brother) a few years back.

Vale is worth a shot in 2nd smile

Spent the day there with Twisted Team Parker.

To say they were made up would be an understatement!
