Grrrr ... I'd trade some photo ability for some driving ability! After a decent Practice, 48.9 ... I kept wimping out going across the hill today.
Thanks for getting some nice snaps of me!

I forgot to turn the plugin mic that I bought on for Trevor, so you can compare his video to either mine or Mark's to hear just how crappy the builtin GoPro mic is.

Sorry about the wind noise; I hadn't planned on mounting the camera to the roof.

Re: PHOTOS/VIDEOS February 2012 Race
Steve has to work on getting closer to the cones. OK, Steve, reel it back just a notch.....
Who says the rear wheels of a FWD car serve no purpose? They're there to stomp the cone back down to the ground!
(both runs were clean but a course worker told Steve that one of them was only overlapping the box by an inch)

Yah ... he was one of the few that would get the car a bit sideways before the last corner to straighten it out and get on the power early ... in a controlled fashion, as opposed to a few who would get all squirrely coming in too fast.

Re: PHOTOS/VIDEOS February 2012 Race
Sunday's race photos have been uploaded: http://public.fotki.com/makofoto/2012-r ... uary-race/
Rick Brown suggested doing some what we call Dutch Angles in the movie biz. Part way through the day I inexplicably started to slant the camera in the other direction ... doesn't work as well imo. Of course I could crop any regular photo at a slant ...

Robert did give me a "WTF?" look w/ his shoulders & hands a run earlier - I was hoping it was just for engine troubles!Max Hayter wrote:It's like the engine just expired at the sight of QV's outfit!

Re: PHOTOS/VIDEOS February 2012 Race
Yeah the reverse slant doesn't work as well, except in the few shots where the vehicle was going "up hill". But I really do like the slant and hopefully so do some customers!Mako Koiwai wrote:Sunday's race photos have been uploaded: http://public.fotki.com/makofoto/2012-r ... uary-race/

Re: PHOTOS/VIDEOS February 2012 Race
I'm a little late to the party...trying to re-learn Final Cut Express using this video.
http://vimeo.com/37759259
My hands are still a little high, but they're much better than where they often used to be at the top of the wheel.
