Photos from MSRH


Mandy got some really good photos from the second race on Saturday. I will try to post them here and on Facebook when Im off work and have time. Anybody that wants photos of their car send me a pm with your email and I will sort through them and send them too you. I know she got some good ones of Marshall. Michael, and Morgan. Pretty sure she got some good ones of Gary and Eddie as well as pretty much everybody coming to the green flag.

Great run Eddie! I had a blast and already can't wait for Cresson. Congrats on the win...you earned it.

Here are the starts of Race 3 and Race 4: http://vimeo.com/35997132

In race 3 I was shooting from the passenger side windshield back at the driver. A couple things I found interesting; I know that I get anxious/nervous before the greeen but was surprised at how heavy I was breathing right before the green. I was also suprised that my hands looked "quieter" than I would have said they felt durig the race. At the end of the clip you can see the the Allford-Exit Maneuver out the left side of the car; it looks stoopid fast even from that view.

In race 4 the pass on Morgan on the second lap looks pretty aggressive to me on video, it didn't feel that way in real time and I hope Morgan thought/thinks it was clean.

What you got?

I don't recall much about that other than it looks like I left it wide open you took it. No issues.

Here are some photos and videos from Saturday/Sunday. Apologies to James Proctor and Michael Mosty, tried to get pics of their cars individually, but all I could see in the view finder was both their cars, they never got far enough apart.

Personal preference and all but your arms look really stretched out in that video. You might have better feel/control if you try a steering wheel spacer...

Nice pics! Mind if we copy and post them to other sites (Facebook, etc.)?

Funny you should mention that. Mitch made the same observation in my Hallett video from last year so I took his advice and added a big honkin' spacer before ECR. I could get some longer bolts and stack another one on top but probably won't for a while. It's not something that's ever bothered me on track...when I put the big spacer on it felt different but not really better or worse. To me it's a pretty subtle difference. To some it's a big deal...

As you saw in the video, my big problem area is braking. I want to get that sorted out before playing with anything else... Thanks for taking the time to give feedback though - I appreciate it :)

I noticed the same thing from some of your previous video but didn't want to sound like I was an expert. Since the experts have commented; I think your seat needs to move forward as your arms and legs looked extended to me. May be your issue with braking. Like a golfer changing his swing. Feels akward at first and then when he gets used to it he gets better (sometimes worse). What ever make you comfotable is what will give you confidence. Some people don't put much value in confidence. They prefer to call it cheating. I'm getting off subject.
