That spot for the go-pro don't look like a bad spot. Try it there one night and see how the video is. I always wanted to put on the rear bumper, but never got around to buying one and now I don't race.
I'm looking forward to some cool vids VRM. You run this weekend?

trucks and trailers go by. Stay on the gas until you see God, then back her into the corner. Good luck tonight. |

That's a second rim
Google Maps says I am between 951 and 1010 miles from the track. Longer to stay out of Chicago. I probably wouldn't be a dependable crew based on 14 hours to get there

The go-pro seems to be mounted in a good spot. Did you get in the loose stuff trying to make that pass or was it case of too much throttle?
The trashed wheel sucks, but those things happen. The car seems to be getting better. Keep at it VRM good results are just ahead.

The stories I could tell. Seriously though, I always had an awesome pitcrew. Most of the time I pitted with 3 or 4 other drivers and we were essentially a 4 car "team". Plenty of help when it was needed. Hopefully, you can pick up a couple guys that are handy and at least want to learn. You're doing the right thing by preparing everything the night before. |
