What's posted is only half of the photos. Hopefully, there is a pic of you in the next batch...I haven't seen the second batch but I should have it posted later today.

Jim:

Thank your friend for me. Maybe we can all chip in and have him do pics of us all next time?

Gallery 2 is up now.

I forgot to mention...my friend didn't start shooting until after the lunch break when he showed up.

Unfortunately he was not able to shoot everybody.

I was lucky I got some good still of me. The camera guy got some good ones too, but they seemed to be charging a bit much IMO

..... Which of you ran in group 1 (1st session) and group 2, all day? I may have some video of you (still sorting through all of it). While you're at it, help me do some market research

Here's an innovative camera mount.

Let's see some videos!

Here's the Skyline and Tommy Kaira Z.

I didn't get a chance to see under the hood of the Z.

The Skyline looked pretty great, but I think it's look is a little dated.

As seen somewhere else on this site, Cheston's Z.

Too bad I missed seeing it run.

This is why you don't want to run 20's on the track.

M3

Very nice car, my first ride in one. SMG is such an advantage at the track. Obviously, no missed shifts. At the fastest setting, upshifts have been described as "brutal." That may be a little too tough, but the shifts are very fast and very crisp. You actually fall forward against the seatbelt a little as the car slows while shifting. Downshifts are nice too, in that there's an automatic blip of the throttle.

Thanks for the rides!


Sorry the pics aren't better. I had no idea I was coming to such an event and I didn't bring the big glass so I was stuck with some wide angle shots.

Next time.

May I recomend the CruiseCam instead?


Will try and post video tonight. I found the cruise cam is pretty decent vid, but the bullet cams made by far the best video, especially with the different places we were able to mount them.

I'll see what I can do. Unfortunately, my 60 min Home Depot special was much shakier than I expected, shakier than my head rest post version, but the viewing angle is much better. How big of a file can I post? Any experts out there? I'd like to get one full lap if I can.

Will this mount on the 350Z seats? I think they will...my only concern is that the shoulder portion extends above the bottom line of the headrest.

Thanks.

Thanks!

Yeah, although you have to push down in it a little bit. It is pretty stable, but nowhere near as good as the tiny bullet cams.
