Yeah, those tires will take a beating. Most people don't think of it their first time, but your brake fluid is going to likely get cooked. May want to replace it afterwards (full bleed).

Cool, thanks for the tip.

Anytime. After your first time, you'll be looking for suspension kits, exhaust, intake, big brake kits. Then comes the roll cage, a helmet, and some type of number. LOL.. mark my words.

You will destroy your tires....go buy used one's and have them mounted before you go

YEP.

I used to teach an entry level autocross course and yes, newbies shredded their tires. Every once in a while a kid got Dad's hot car, and then I helped shred the tires.

It is a lot of fun if you know what you are doing. I don't own a car I dislike enough right now.

Testing the cameras...

[GilpinGuy]

Huh. I figured the GoPro cam would have been better, but I actually think the cell camera had a "flatter" picture and did just fine. Cell cam has my vote (if you're looking for opinions).

Told ya the cell phone would do just fine.

[Ridge]

The cellphone has a better image, but the depth perception on it is off.

I'm going to run both, though.

Kill the noise on the gopro, that is obnoxious.


I hooked my cell phone into a Porsche at the track last summer. Ran like a champ and the driver had a good movie to watch at the end.

Hearing the tires squeelin' would be cool though. How fast do you run in these races?

As fast as possible

I'll put Blur - Song 2 over it
