Talking Some race footage - Castle Combe Special GTs

Hello Exi builders!

Having realised that there is not much Marlin 5Exi presence on Youtube - I though I'd upload a little race footage from yesterday's race at Castle Combe.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VgetW4rFDhg

For those of you that are not following our progress - we are racing in the Special GTs class - yesterday's line up included:
5 x Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradales
1 x Ferrari 430 Challenge stradale
1 x Ferrari 355 Challenge Stradale
1 x BMW M3
1 x Mazda RX7 (very highly tuned!)
1 x Caterham Superlight (200BHP)
etc

Although not quite on pace of the winning Ferraris, we are now managing to put up a very decent fight! Yesterday I managed to finish ahead of two Ferraris costing £150k+ each... :-)
My best Lap time yesterday = 1:16:357
(circuit lap record for our class at the end of 2006 season was 1:15:584)

Enjoy..

Regards to all!

Dylan

p.s. quite quick of the line eh?

Yay, I can watch the start again and again, and see all the Ferrari's spinning.

Even better as its was a split grid so didn't have may cars flying past.

Cheers Jon

Thats excellent Dylan.
What kit are you using to record on-board?
Do you have link to a web site with this kit?
