About 2 minutes in. Brent Broussard #34 was filming, James Ray #42 was the hi-sider. He was OK.
that had to suck..pretty fast section right there. IMO, James has ALOT of lean angle. The talent is there but may try to get through the corners with a tad less lean. It seemed to me for the given speeds there were riders going through the same corners with less lean. Gotta lean, but i dont think at the angle he rides there is room for any error. Just my opinion...
That was a real fast corner to go down. I had no idea which way everything (bike & racer) was going and glad I didn't run over James. Even more difficult was the view from the riders behind me. On the first lap of the restart, you also notice I got bumped off the track right before the roller coaster. I saved it, but the freight train was gone. I had to start from the back and chase everyone down.

Here's my MWSB footage. I'll have MWGP front view uploaded later. I'm not sure what happened to the MWGP rear view footage. I may have reformatted the SD card before loading it to the computer prior to the next race when it was mounted on the SV. :banghead:
Front view http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3n8u9rKmBXY
Rear view http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OdLTxM2ce8o
Eventually I should be able to figure out the picture-in-picture effect and have just one video with both views
I'll be uploading the LWSB race eventually. The footage from GTL and LWSS is all screwed up because the screws holding everything together in the bullet cam came out everything was rattling around inside.
MWGP is uploaded http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4646767086902871396

Your right... I'm usually the guy hangin off the bike with the thing standing straight up and down... This was my first event of the year, maybe I just got caught up trying to GOOOO!!! he,he,he... And I went right off the edge of the tire!! The cool thing is... When I got home, my wife says.... "Jamie, no playing around with the experts, you need to ride more than a couple of times a year!!"
Boys... break out the credit card, beer and race take offs..... I'm going to the track...!!! :-)
hey jamie it's shawn, kent's friend met you doing kent's sag. Are you going to WV? Kent said last week that he was wussn' out and going to a wedding or something.
I tried talking Jamie into but I don't think he is going to make it. I think he would like Summit. It suits his style.

The ol' quote goes "easier to teach a fast rider how to not crash as much than teach a slow rider how to go fast" or somethin like that.. I actually could use some of your confidence mid corner, you get er leaned over, but then pick the thing up while rolling on. Good luck out there, i bet with more consistant track time you will be right up near the front.
