Sorry I haven't posted any more videos lately. I found too much of the other footage less than stellar. We had to sit in the spectator section since we didn't have hard hats and it put us too far out. As I plan to compete this coming year, I will have less time with the camera, but still plan to get some footage and hopefully better document the event and the energy of the rounds. I now have a better idea what it might take to capture the event and I may have a volunteer camera man lined up to do some filming. Does anyone know if we can operate the camera from around the contest directors area ( front and center )as long as we follow the safety guidelines? I would really like to try and capture all of the action up close and personal like. Thanks and looking forward to it.

<br />In the SCCA group I run with they require photogs to have a spotter with them in case they are watching the wrong thing when a car gets out of shape. Not a requirement here but it probably would be a good safety measure.

That is a good point. I agree with you that when you are trying to film, you don't really get to see anything that is going on, especially when it comes to peripheral vision.
