I keep flicking over here waiting for someone to post the next Ultima track or road hoon video.

But unless I've missed it, they seem very thin on the ground!!

Can anyone help out a recovering addict? Pleeaasseee!!!!

And just to show a little action, here is some of an ex-GTR owner and one very much current one doing their bit for the lads entertainment!!!

I see your learning the BTCC way of braking . "Once the wheels have stopped turning use the other car to slow down" never hurt Jason P......
Looks like your having fun bud.... thats what is all about...

I did silverstone last Monday and threw it into the gravel at maggots/beckets at a large rate of knots, that would have made good footage but was cameraless. Am doing two days at spa at the end of this month and will post something after that.

Hey Lucky,

I have the usual Scottish Knockhill footage. One problem....... It's upside down! What programmes do you guys use to format videos?

When I mount the camera the correct way round, the vibration switches it off or stops it recording. I currently use a bracket that attaches to the center of the role bar at the back of the seats.

^^^^^ Sure there's a way Lisa. Just don't recall seeing it on the programme I use - Panasonic SD mixer (came with the camera).

We can alway turn our lappies upside down!!

Not the best or the longest video (red flag) but at least it's the right way around biggrin

First few laps out at Knockhill last night.

I'll have a look and see what else I captured. Need to reposition the camera smile

Good quality image (better than some other clips). A repositioning of the camera (lower) would make things perfect. Nice track with some great ups and downs. A bit like the Ring without the trees. Sunny weather too.

Ahh....like a shot in the arm!! thumbup

What a good quality camera set up you have. A couple of inches down and it'll be perfect.

And the low rev torque cloud9

Keep 'em coming!!

PS. (at risk of putting my food in my mouth) Lisa, what manly hands you have!!! laugh

And that's why I was runner up for Miss Scotland 2008 and not the winner wink

...... it was my better half driving in those laps. The camera was tempremental but it's because I wasn't in 'high quality' mode. Unfortunately, the one to follow is the old boy too biggrin

Hey Pete,
Great video. Are you having fun throwing around the MR2? It must be fun knowing you're not putting your expensive GTR at risk on the track. We're looking around for a Spec Miata to do the same thing.

Here's a bit from my evening at Cadwell this time last week...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USf00lMvPnU

It all seems so slow when you watch it, I am sure it felt faster when I was there but still.

Nice one Phil. I was there the Saturday after in the MR2. I seem to be stuck on 1.48 keep locking up at Park and the one where you go down the hill and left off camber.

Looking good and smooth buddy, not a place I would like to push an Ultima. Halls bends could go awfully wobbly silly

I think I'll stick to the MR2 at that place...

Here's another one for you, from RAF Marham back in April...

Have a look at a little 'wobble' at approx 5:55 and something a bit more 'impressive' at 9:30 ha.

what can I say? I might have to recalibrate my understanding of 'impressive'! He-he!

What the fook happened there?
