That was EXCELLENT !

You picked a very good mounting position for the camera - it captured the driver, car and track perfectly. Well done.

Great video Marc! Very well edited too.

Tracks are fun but it's an expensive hobby and you need an appropriate track toy as well. Tires, fuel, brake pads, track time... it's a money hungry addiction.

to those of you who could not view the video:

the link i provided you is a link through orb -- the video is being streamed directly from my computer which should work totally fine AS LONG AS you didn't happen to try viewing it while i was restarting the computer or something

in other news: the rest of the video is very nearly done; i am extremely confident it will be done by tonight. it's a 7 minute "music video documentary" of the C4S vs Subaru WRX Sti.

and again, thank you for all the kind words, i'm glad you are all enjoying it so much!!

p.s. and yes, i really DID boil the brake fluid however, obviously since i had the same problem in the porsche -- albeit after FIVE 20-minute sesssions -- i humbly admit that i've still got a LOT to learn about that track, i really was over-braking i think
