Track day footage

Post by Buckers »

Evenin

Here's some track day footage from cadwell this week. Sorry about the quality.... need to work out how to sort the camera better



Camera never worked long enough to get more than a warm up lap recorded...

was it a battery problem?? seems a shame - cadwell is ace :thumbup:
just watching some other vids on the same page as yours - some guy on an sp1 using racechrono - now that i do like :cool2 http://www.racechrono.com.au/
easlily the best lap timer ive seen.
theres a nice on of him sliding off in the rain lol :thumbup:

maybe aim the camera down a bit as well next time, it was pointing a bit too high! :biggrin

the cam is one of them 808 key chain cameras - a tenner of ebay. The downside is the fps which makes it a touch blurry and the mounting problems.

that's the best I could do with sky pointing - I put it under the nose using velcro but the fairing points slightly upwards. I'll have to try some different angles next time!

And yes the problem was battery - I thought it was fully charged but it only did a few minutes each time. They are tempremental things but cheap...

ahh brings back memories of trackdays that were easy to go and do. the french have a lot of rules to do trackdays. Much easier to go back to uk and do them. Can I borrow someone's bike?

treat yourself to a gopro m8, you will never look back.
even on cheapo asda rechargeables you will get 30 - 45 mins recording, great selection of mounts and good pic quality - see the bike cam thread :thumbup:
