Default Tubby out on track again

Did the last trackday of the season on Sat. Took "Tubby" back to the scene of the accident, where I highsided in June. Safe to say I was quite nervous, even though I had done two trackdays since then.

Day was quite dull but didnt rain, I went in the Inters group with a shed load of Ducati's.








I think I'll need a new rear tyre now though




And heres a video from session 5:

Realy Nice pictures and Video there DynaMight



Either YOU are Really REALLY Fast.... or those other girls <jk> SUX.. or BOTH... either way... I LOVED seeing YOU use the RC51, to show those suckers the FAST Way around the track!

Is there anything you can do about getting the mic out of the wind blast... would have been sweet to hear Your RC51 ROAR!

I wasnt all that fast but did pick up the pace by the end of the day. I started at the back of the pack so naturally caught the slower riders, there were plenty of other guys who were roughly the same pace or faster than me who I never saw. Actually all the riders had a fairly good pace, no-one stupidly slow.

As for the camera... the sound does suck but I wasnt meant to be running a camera at all because they're forbidden so the footage was recorded with one of these:


Can you see it?



















There it is!
They're less than $60 delivered from Ebay, AEE MD-80. Awesome bit of kit but internal mic isnt easy to block the noise.

LMAO!.. Awesome video camera man,.. I've got to ask you and others here..

HOW do you guys know, WHEN to take a shot "Buying such a camera"... for 60 bucks.. isn't alot of money I know... however.. it's not cheap either..
I was just wondering because I would Love to have a camera like this... but because I don't know alot about electronics, I wouldn't pull the trigger (Again) for such a device... I say again cause I bought a digital cammera acouple yrs back for 50 bucks and it was CRAP! LOL I'm guessing my statement of "acouple yrs back" might be key... BUT Still, how do you know you're not getting CRAP for quality?

Since over all,.. yours... (Take out the cartoon looking rim picture) was not bad at all, plus 9 or 10min. recorded time!

It's the problem you get with electronics from China etc, very hit and miss. I've bought loads of crap before I went for this after much consideration, test video clips and good user reviews. I dont think any camera for that price will be perfect but it's good enough for a laugh, I generally use a GoPro Hero Wide, which has much better video and audio but it's bigger and would had got noticed, they're about $200.

The AEE actually records continuously until the battery dies, which is about 1hr 30-45mins. Each 30min clip is around 650-700MB is size, comes with a 2GB card but accepts an 8GB.
