Helmet cam video

Friend of mine got a helmet cam for Christmas. He videoed the backwards race (run the track backwards, no practice or hot lap). I got a 6th row grid, took the outside on the start, but the traffic boxed me out and I was dead last out of T2 and had to work my way up. Didn't make the box in this one. Bummer. I pass Peter on the inside of a right hander about lap 2. I'm on a green motard with black leathers and silver helmet.

You see about lap 4 or so, bikes four wide in front of Peter. One of 'em kicks at another. ROFLMAO I love the kung fu aspect of the backward race, always contact. You don't see it because I'm too far in front of Peter by that time, but I stuffed one guy on the inside of that tight right hander and he comes down and slams me. He went off the outside in the dirt, I went off the inside in the dirt, another guy sticks a wheel in between and I out drag raced 'em onto the straight. ROFL! It's a hoot!

Wish I coulda made the box in this one, but I got two seconds that weekend, the only two decent grids I had out of five races. You gotta get out front of the pack by turn four off the start or you are toast. Grids are HUGE this year, which is a good thing.

Yep, pretty cool, see a lot of sky though, perhaps a handlebar mounted one might work better, might give a more realistic feel in the turns.
