Anyone have any suggestions?

I've seen a few of Sean Edwards' vids and am always impressed, but nearly all vids I can find tend to be 480p at best and of the supposed HD ones, most of them are filmed with some low quality camera so aren't REALLY HD (not to my mind anyway).

I do, that's the problem! I've seen 'em all. At least twice. I need more!

The main reason I like watching your stuff (aside from it being HD) is you make it look easy, which means I can sit at home and think to myself "yeah I could do that given half a chance". biggrin

Do you not have someone to upload them for you then or is it all you? To be fair, with the choice of uploading vids to YouTube or jetting off somewhere to go drive ANOTHER fast car I don't think I'd be sat in front of the PC much either! smile

excellent vid of the helmet cam in the merc round the noodleburgring. But can I ask a q's?

when you get baulked in your Merc by a lesser marque - e.g. that Astra as you join the old circuit, do you ever catch yourself thinking ' get out of my way! you peasant!


to the OP - flash motorsport have some HD vids of the STCC.

The only suggestion I could offer is to why. Most racing installations use specialist motorsport camera setups such as those from people like Racelogic, Race Technology and Stack which come with integrated data logging, GPS and connections to the ECU (hence all of the overlays with speed, RPM, map displays and so on). As yet I don't believe that any of those systems are available with full HD cameras, hence race teams don't capture a lot of HD (they would need one or more discrete cameras and would need to do considerably more post processing to get the same results)...

If you don't mind me plugging my own racing videos in here

http://www.youtube.com/emaginepro

I race in the Toyota MR2 Championship Roadster Class. You should see more and more videos appearing over the season. So far, 2 class wins at Silverstone (5th and 8th overall) Looks like it could be a good season with packed grids and Toyota Sponsorship.
