Title: Road America Photographers ?
Post by: MELK-MAN on July 07, 2014, 10:43:04 PM
I know all the folks that work their butts off in the heat, the bugs, the noise, etc. down here in the south east.. but who can we get a few $$ to, for shots from RA?

They haven't posted anything yet, but I know they were there.

Might be a couple days before they are up though.

It's raining in Chicago and whats more fun on a rainy day than to play on the internet ;)     

Design engine rented a high speed camera over the Road America race weekend (and trackdays) and here is part of what we made... including my crash caught on the GoPro in Canada Corner on the last race of the day. 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mORYZ27ucLg  < this one is of my girl find sondra and me when she heard over the PA that she could come claim her cell phone that we thought we lost at Walmart

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0P8mj2HnVs&list=UUS-w3F3P1RC5soF8j_A6uRQ < this one could probably use more fast action.  The fire works at the end are epic.  Notice the Apex manufactured bars ;)  They didn't brake in my crash in Canada corner and I rode  the bike back (next video)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rpPWnHdA_qE < Canada corner crash.  The GoPro Tumble is classic and Sondra dancing at the end is hilarious...  I'll add comments to the videos today.
