actually the camera is in the Headlight! and i have it mounted in the rubber light piece. that is why it bounces around! the actual track is very nice a couple of bumps, but nothing serious...

Thanks!
and the camera system was a motocomm
it is ok... I did not have much time to get everything set up... but I should have it all set up in the next month or two... I can change the focus, and mount the camera a little more secure!

No pot holes, practically no cracks or bumps.

I want to see some pics/vids from the side of the track. I couldn't make it through half of the 1st vid from the headlight, too boring to watch. You guys need to set up some vids showing them hauling ass down the track from the side.

dont like them dont watch them. this was my first try with an onboard camera... why dont you come down and set up a video camera and shoot from the side view... then we can post both options. now that would be great for everyone...

I thought my first post would've illustrated that I didn't watch them, if it didn't I apologize. I would love to do the Texas Mile, but unfortunately I got more important things in my life right now, but someday probably. I normally just tap the limiter up here on a special flat wide open road I know of for free though. Sometime though when I get a turbo I will DEFINATELY make it to the TM or Maxton.

Entropy and TRNorBRN6001,
WTF are you guys talking about? Not one thing I posted was mean. Quit being girls please. All I said was:

I wasn't raining on anything. I was just stating that all the vids are the same and it would be nice to see some vids of the runs from the side. Geesh! You would think I said something about your wives or something by the way you responded.
If I offended you in some way Mike, I apologize. I wasn't trying to be mean or disrespectful.

Haha, that sounds cool.
I welcome criticism. If you can't accept criticism in life you leave yourself open for never improving. Sure he's happy about his camera in the headlight, but that doesn't mean there isn't a way to get even BETTER video. Lets not jack this thread though and end this conversation. I was just wanting to make a statement, not elaborate on my statement. Take care.
