We all like a good video, so I thought you might like to see this ...

At the opening round of the Club MSV Team Trophy earlier this year, I get tagged at Druids on the opening lap. (I'm driving the #88 Silver Impreza)

Facing into the oncoming traffic, I dropped to 32nd place while everyone narrowly avoided a major colision. I don't think you could have put a fag paper between the 911 and the front of my car !!!!

You must have been gutted considering the great start you got.

To be honest, I was more 'on a mission' after I realised I was ok and ended up finishing 6th overall, 4th in class.

Well chuffed with that smile

A new back door, a bit of trim and it was back in the next race at Silverstone !

Great video - you had a fabulous start. I'm racing #88 there next weekend - hope to remain facing the correct way for the entire race!

Nice vid!

Camera quality looks good and looks potentially more stable to attach than a Go Pro. Did you just screw it on?

The sound seems terrible though, have you any experience with the plug in mic?

It's a pair of Drift HD cameras that click into sticky pad mounts. They are stuck on good wink

I have a separate mic now that drops through the roof into the cabin, so the wind noise is gone.

Excellent video.

But the music is sh!*e!! And totally unnecessary.

IMHO
