I would honestly recomend this camera over almost any other camera on the market. It is HD and you can literaly put it anywhere! I used it as a "boot" cam when I went skiing this last winter, no skips or problems what so ever! And most importantly in very little time you can download and share a video... Unlike Mr. Gran I am a terrible speller and I have terrible grammer. A video is much better than a story from me!

    I have yet to see any July Sprints events (from past years) posted to MYLAPS.

    Maybe things will change...

    David,

    Don't fret. The official results show your trashing, blowing through and otherwise decimating the ITB track record by over one second (sniff).

    (sniff) It only proves the mis-classed prelude needs 500 lbs of weight!!!! You can do it with bronzed copies of your book!!!!(sniff)

    David hooked up with the leading SSM's and dashed off into drafting heaven. Nat says he could only watch that spaceship blast off. I had a great race with Greg Subtelny and Dan DeBell. How many yellow Volvo's were out there? Some laps it felt like eight intead of two. The two SSM's that were buzzing each other in our custer also did a great job. Amy Mills sure ain't a rookie anymore!

    Dave, I thought that was really nice of you to come up to me after the race even if it was to bolt a box of bronzed copies of my book to the Prelude. Yeah, working and drafting with the second place SSM was huge!

    Yeah, it did seem like there were yellow Volvos everwhere!

    What happended to Tim's car during the race?

    As I understand it....

    Mr. Mullen has had certain electrical gremlins in the new A3 Golf. I have written elsewhere about the absolute necessity of making damn sure that pin 65 of the ECU receives a clean and pure signal from the vehicle speed sensor. For most of us that means replacing the harness or running a jumper from the VSS to the ECU. A certain fellow in Massachusetts assured Tim that the situation had been rectified, having found that certain wires essential to delivering this signal were not connected when the car was built. Tim noticed in the ProIT qualifier that the engine would die at 5300 RPM after a few laps. Heat creates resistance if the connection is not solid. During lunch I had him run the jumper and the car was good for the rest of the day and the next morning's ProIT race.

    For the afternoon's regional he decided to replace his ecu (with a chip from a known entity) with a certain fellow from Massachusetts' "special" ecu chip. The rev limiter had not been removed. Tim decided it was too dangerous just to tool around in 5th gear and packed it in after two laps.

    Do any of the top ITR or ITS guys have any video from Sunday's Group 5 race? I want to see if there's anything I could of done in the last laps from getting into your guy's ways.
