Thanks Tom. BTW, watched the race at WGI and Bill Valet drove an amazing race. The marshalls were waiting for the uproar after posting results due to pace car error at restart. Anywho, great race to watch and thanks for posting links to the videos.
PS: if Bill is reading this, many thanks to his dad for helping me belt in my FC and other tips/assistance.
Here is some video from Sunday's FF-F5-FV race at the Pocono Double National. Precisely at the one minute whistle on the false grid it started to rain. Not enough rain nor enough time to change to wet tires, but enough to make things very interesting for the first few laps.
Despite the conditions Davey D'Addario managed to set a new lap record during the race, so congrats to him and also to Joe Parsons for his win.
I have edited the video down, sorry for the choppy editing, still trying to get the hang of this. The video shows my son Bill Valet and Larry Hendrickson going back and forth for 5th place.
Take care.

Here are a few onboard videos from hillclimbs I've run in 2008. This is onboard a 1970 Caldwell D9 FF1600. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMDSQIs-mY8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SD7lOYG3RsM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3aJJoUMSQhw
Hi Stan,
I've never run a hillclimb. But what with all those boulders, trees, and drop offs at the edge of the asphalt, I'd imagine you have to approach a run under the philosophy that you're not going to go 10/10ths. Would that be right?
If so, how do you maintain that less-than-flat-out mantra? Do you ever take a corner at 10/10ths? Roughly how hard do you drive?
Best regards,
Jim
Jim,
Actually, after driving this same car for over 20 years, I do work up to nearly 10/10s over the course of the weekend. I come from over 35 years of autocross and so I have a feel for what the limit is. Once I know the hill well and have felt out the levels of grip, I pretty much go for it, the last couple of runs on Sunday. I do feel like a certain level of maturity is required. Aircraft pilots have a saying, "There are bold pilots and old pilots but very few old bold pilots." I'm 59. It is pretty exciting.
Anyone have any good video from the Runoffs they would like to share?

Rennie Clayton posted some over on the DSR forum during his run in CSR in his converted Ralt Atlantic car.

I missed the angle on this run but it show the tach. Then the camera got into still photo mode and I did not notice.
Was looking around in Youtube for some racing video and found this neat in car footage of a Formula Ford race from Donnington:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=rzT1DRmMuPY
Skip ahead to about the minute and a half mark for the actual start of the race. Part 2 only shows passes of 2 backmarkers but if you want to see it, scan the right margin for it.

This one from a Spec Miata is pretty wild.Quote:

That explains the 4 wheel off thread that was started. I can't believe all the crap on the track, that had to make the next race fun.:D
Hey gang-
There is a ton of great in-car video on the Apex Speed Channel at motorrev.klipz.tv. A great example is this video from Blackhawk Farms on a drying track.
Go to http://motorrev.klipz.tv/view_video....10e0353e0836d8 and check the video out.

Thanks to all the ApexSpeed members who have contributed videos...they're great!

Here's a little four-minute "music video" that covers my 2007 season. You'll see bits of Laguna Seca, Sears Point (Infineon Raceway), Thunderhill... and various other cars. Thanks to everyone who appears in the video; it was fun getting passed by you. :blueflag:

Hope to see you all again next year!
Here's our qualifying lap record at Infineon this past SAT in our Stohr F1000...includes a near crash with a Pro Mazda:

Does anyone have any video or links to video's of any of the EWC series races? I saw a link to a video of the 2005 EWC event at Road America, which happened to be my last race there. So I saved it, but now it's gone from my computer, say's it's no longer available. I've googled and still can't find it. I sure would love to see it again, maybe I could move up a couple positions....
Anybody got a decent front view video of Pacific Raceways near Seattle? Nick Belling has a great rear view, but it made me car sick... :D
Dry track...sunny weather...all-out effort in a formula car or sports racer would be nice. YouTube and Google have hundreds of videos from guys doing 3 minute laps in their street cars, but my attention span doesn't run that long. :p
We recorded the FC March National at Rd Atl using a POV.1 (Thanks Jim Gustafson and ON BOARD VIDEO TECH!) My teenager edited and posted some video on you YouTube, you can view at this link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tnsx3CJgi4Q
PS: This was only my 2nd race back after a 41/2 year layoff and 40lb weight gain, so don't laugh too hard (we totally lucked into 2nd place in Continental!)

Saturday May 30, Q1 and Q2 Highlights. The morning Q1 session was on a slick track, with little grip to be found, while I was on old, hard compound tires. Q2 offered much more grip, and we were on soft tires. Ended up 4th in FC with a big spin at the end of the session. The link to highlights: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=agrYmyWlJLM

PS: If you find these entertaining and would like longer video feed please let me know, and I'll have my youngster include a little more footage. Race highlights coming soon.
Here's one from ealier this year at Phillip Island - south of Melbourne.

Right in front of you could be my Old Car! I know my Former 1984 Raynard FF1600 is being raced is OZ and is that color Blue!:thumbsup:
Dave you've picked back up the line quickly and the speed - impressive. Wish I could have gotten my car together in time to make it - but I'll live vicariously through you! Fun to watch.
Pretty good dicing between two Radicals at Cadwell Park in the UK. Tricky looking circuit that looks like it has quite a few spots were you really need to suck it up to be fast, let alone try to overtake. :revs:

FC race in-car footage from the May National at Mid Ohio. Defer won, setting a new track record (at 1:26.31) in the process.
BTW Joe your comments regarding the qualifying clip were greatly appreciated, thanks!

Was that Dave W who you stuck in traffic?:o
Yeah, that was Dave W, figured that was going to be my only chance to get him back. Talked to him afterwards and he thought it was a little tight, but was OK with the move. Might have been able to catch LaRue in front of me, but was busy keeping Dave at bay.

POV1.5 in-car footage from the July National at Gingerman. Both John LaRue, and Brian Tomasi were hooked up and flying all weekend. LaRue won, Tomasi was second, and I was a realatively distant third. :revs:

I have posted two videos in an F2000. One of Mosport and one of Watkins GLen.
Mosport I set the fastest race laps both races and the Glen I set the F2000 track record. Thanks Dave for the camera.

Great laps.:thumbsup: I have only driven Mosport in a Toyota Corolla rental car so I enjoied seeing it at "Speed":o
Matt,
You're welcome.
It's a pleasure watching your driving! It would be great to see some in car race action from the F2000 Championship Series.
Hope the Summit Point weekend is going well.

Here is a video shot from my FV during a 6 lap pole sprint at Summit Point main with the FRCCA.

I've started converting my old Super 8 film to DVD format... I know this is a "tin top" (I've seen the error of my ways and been converted to open wheel ;)), but thought some might get a kick out of seeing Riverside International Raceway almost 30 years ago:

Before you ask ... I qualified 10th & finished 11th :rolleyes:.
Theres a new website a friend is developing called www.RacerTube.com
Go check it out. You can post in-car videos onto the site and add race results etc. Pretty cool.
Here is my in-car video from the Mid Ohio FC race on 10/11/09

First time racing an FC. And first time with video on the car, so quality is not the greatest.

Here's my annual year-end "music video" from the San Francisco region. It has the usual three tracks: Laguna Seca, Infineon Raceway (Sears Point), and the club-owned Thunderhill.
Thanks to everyone ahead of me and (especially) behind me for some fun racing. I had a great time and I'm enjoying the "new" Crossle.

Neat thread. However my attention span is much shorter than those of earlier generations. So my videos are short and accompanied by music.
However not open wheel... Yet.
