He was hoping we would like him better if he pretended to be in a Miata....

Silly Miatas are not fast enough to run in GS.
MMMmmm...???
(Why does he keep buying Miatas, then?)
To show you that they really are fast it is just the other drivers making them slow.
Because he's always convinced he'll fit in the next one.

I had alot of fun! I need more practice though. Here is a video of my runs. Thanks to Mk2mr2 for letting me use his camera mount.

Nice HD video apex. The rest of you guys can stop posting video now...
I helped out at the school the previous day, as I convinced a co-worker to come out and give AX a try. Unfortunately, neither he nor I could join the fun on Sunday.

That is pretty good video quality. How come you dubbed the sound of a blender on top of the video though

Good one. Which HD camcorder do you have? I had my Vixia HG20 with me but I couldn't find a good way to mount it with the hard top on. I usually suction cup it to the trunk with the top down like ZX3 did.
I need to get a roll bar mount for it.

Does anyone have a MaxQLog from this weekend they can send me? I think I'm just all sorts of messing up with late braking and poor acceleration.
I used the Creative Vado HD on a chasecam suction mount.

Hmm... that vimeo site has some good quality...

Yeah. I saw a Vimeo vs. YouTube HD comparison somewhere a few months ago. They were very close in quality, but people who are a little bit more serious about their videos tend to stick with Vimeo. I think the community there, as a whole, is more interested in the quality of what they put out there.
Was your camera mounted to your seat back? It's almost impossible to get a non-shaky video that way, unless you have fixed-back seats.

Try turning your rearview mirror sideways next time.

It was mounted to a piece of plastic that was screwed to the holes where th dome light goes. The plastic is floppy and my car is firmly sprung, making a bad combo.
I need to fab up something a bit firmer and see how that works.
In my WRX I used to use a chase cam suction cup mount stuck to the inside of the rear window. That worked out pretty well and was rock solid.

The camera I'm using now is tall... and it causes a lot of headaches. I'll figure something out and will eventually spend more money than it would have cost to do it right in the first place.
'cuz that's how *I* roll
