It rained for the last half of the second heat.

The zoh was a blast to watch sliding through the corners!

Is there anyway to do a split screen of in car & track with you system?

[goofygrin]

If you can't find a software to do it, I can write one pretty easily.

[BenCronin04]

I'm sure there is, but I only have one mount. Multipul camera's, but one mount.

Thanks again guys for letting us run our own class.

You are welcome. Hope you guys had a good time. I'll bet you didn't even realize it was me when I took your pic next to your car as the "winner of the Honda class." I'll PM you when I'm done with the pics and send you a copy of your pic, plus a composite I did of the honda's lined up together.

Sweet, thanks man. Appreciate it once again. And no I don't really know anyone out there. Still learning names and faces.

Speaking of videos, here a short clip from the vids I made yesterday of a few of Andy's runs. Its about ~30 seconds, make sure to watch in High Quality (HQ).....



I had already had a rather eventful spin on one of my previous runs where the car was bouncing as it was spinning, then I got to watch the car do this. And, I had to make a run in the car right after he came off course. I'm not shamed to admit that I was a little hesitant and that "the boys" seemed to be shrinking as I got closer to the car to strap in.

holy schnikeys!

I went. It was my first Autox event and had a blast. I'm definitely will be participating often just for fun. I'm pretty pleased with the results, just wish I had one more run since I know I could have done better. Best time was 46.550 and got best time in novice.

x2 Good times. My first time out on the track as well. Placed 4th in novice by a little bit :).

I was in the 96M in the first heat and was quickly discovering how greasy Azenis become (not wanting to stop after the first slalom). First 3 laps I was maybe a "tad" aggressive and near sideways most of the time. I did slow down a bit and run a cleaner line for PAX though.

I was lucky enough to be on corner 2 (middle) during the rain in the second heat. It was fun watching the yellow z06 get sideways on the exits. The white bmw was pretty sick as well. I remember it lifting wheel everytime through the corner before hitting the second slalom.
