Paul
You better get me your address and I'll come around Sunday, if that works out. Can have a look at your beast too in that jail cell.
Cheers

Congratulations guys on what appears to have been another fantastic "Fest".
Thanks heaps for the photos and videos....
I just finished enjoying a number of laps in behind the wheel of both Acecob and Philm, and it bought back some very happy memories of going around that track two years ago.
I started to kick myself for not getting to the event, but then also remembered the 3,200 klm round trip in 47 degree heat!!!...I'm such a sheila!
My poor little bumblebee had to put in the big ones on that trip....two big days down, and two big days back, with three days of great fun in the middle.... I have very fond memories of the whole week.
It's a great event, and credit must go to Tony and Jason for making it all happen.
Well done boys
Hey Phil......Love the in car stuff...how the heck do you get such clear sound??...i.e. without ANY wind noise etc.
My in car T.V. Camera is brilliant and very clear, but the mike picks up every sound, even when I wrap it in foam etc.
Regards,
Warren

Shelby Fest 08
My thanks to Jason, Tony and all who participated in the organisation and running of this great weekend. I had a wonderful time; and it was great to have the opportunity to develop a closer friendship with all who attended.

Here's the link to the You tube page

That's what I was thinking when I first looked at the video when I downloaded it from the camera. Great car control Peter. Steering like a pro.
Cheers

Chase Cam
HI Wazza,
The Camera is a Chase Cam, as below
ChaseCam, Your Source for Video at Speed
It is made for incar stuff, the recoreder has sound input levels and the recorder is tucked away out of the wind.
A bit expensive but the results are great. The original file is about 1 gig and when viewed on our 106cm TV it looks and feels as if you are in the car, you can even read all of the gagues.
I will get the Tecnition (Son) to upload some more stuff and just for Peter the one where the wall gets a little to close.
Phil

Jeeeepers Phil. They come unstuck so easily... would you say yours is a well sorted car? If so, I'm going to be taking it very easy at the track when it's finally finished.

Well held Phil.
I think I need a new ergonomic chair. Just about crapped me daks.
Good result. Its a shame the exhaust is so loud, we may have been able to hear the laughter after a near miss like that - your that is.

God car bad driver
Sambo,
I would like to think the car is well sorted.
Just the wrong line and a little too much power too early.
Hogster,
I was just waiting for the crunch....... yes I was pretty happy that it was ok.
Phil
