Well.. when I wasn't getting held up :)  I was in low :41.'s to occasional :40.'s.

Never hit the :39s, which was my ultimate, 'would be awesome' goal.

Yea, kinda sux, should have done better if I was just a little more aggressive out of the gate. I'll redeem myself at VIR. ;D

You passed me going into the chicane at about 4:55 in the video. I should have followed you instead of Brian and Edgar. ;D (Just kidding guys ;) ) I ended up 22nd.

Cool Video, What kind of video set up did you have? I thought it was against rules for video in actual race or what they didnt know wouldnt hurt them kind of thing? Was it a bullet cam with fanny pack video camera? I am trying to decide on a video set up to buy! THANKS!

i think he uses pretty much the same thing..

i have a lipstick cam http://www.helmetcamera.com/products.htm

and a DVcamcorder from any store that takes an input ., [as small as possible]  then mount both to the bike., they last better if not attached to the body ..

Yup.. helmetcam, with a Sony DV cam. Cut a hole in the nose and mount the helmetcam on the inside of the nose.  Then just plug in the DV cam, wrap it in bubblewrap, and shove it inside the nose cone, like so:
