I just got a GoPro HD and have never really edited video. I'll be uploading some of the video and pics from the track day at Atlanta Motor Speedway in the next few days. Enjoy...I did!!
Here's the first, actually the last video I shot that day. Was trying out different mounting points for the camera. Not sure who this is I was tailing. He/she was in group A. It was the 4th session where they combined A and B groups. I just went out for a couple laps cause I was about out of gas. Even knowing that it was hard for me to leave the track,lol.

Very nice Chris. Looks like a real fun time.
Love the Goose-Honk too, lol :D
Very nice Chris! If it was a girl and you did not run her down.....well? Sounds more like a snort or sneeze to me. LOL

I was actually intentionally following to get the video. I never mind staring at a Z32 rearend.

For some reason it sounded better there than what will be in the next video I post which is mounted onto the roll bar. Granted I have to drive with the t tops off cause of my helmet. Actually not helmets fault, more like my long neck,lol.

My car doesnt really stand out. Its usually in stealth mode.

timing one of your later laps in the 2nd vid, i was looking at about 2:03 did you have any in car timers?
quick recoveries on the slides. seems you could have floored it more but chose not to yeah? what kind of tires were you running?

Didnt run any timers. I had brand new BFG KDW2 on but didnt really go 100%. Track was very gritty in spots and didnt want to push it too much. Thats more my show car but had to get out on that track. Now I'm cleaning the rubber bits off it and chip repairs,lol. Price you pay to show and go.
Secondary note..I really do dig the new tires!

right on. I was running new INVOs which are in the same class as the KDW. I picked them up freshly mounted on my way to nats. lol so the only miles on them were the miles from where i was staying at on villa rica and the nats parking lot. mine is definitely shown more than tracked, but if i can legally drive the car that hard, ill pick it over a show anyday. IMO it'd be stupid to run a car 100% without room for error esp when its not a full race car.
Nissan- DRIVEN!

Chris, I don't know how you drive it and keep it that clean. After seeing yours again, I miss my old wheels. The stance is dead on.
