Yep second that Bugger - what sort of camera do you use ? and more importantly what lens - it seems a bit fish eye to get most of the dash in etc.

Luckilly there was 4 hours of evening qualifying AND ...

The GOOD news is that the evening session went like a dream. All 4 drivers in the Alfa got their 2 full laps in and the car ran lke a dream. I was last man out at about 9:45 local time so it was pretty dark but managed a good solid couple of laps.

The place is AMAZING, it's like driving down a great country road which they've built directly through a fairground, your flat out, camera flashes ten to the dozen ... brilliant!

The camera is a 4mm bulletcam. I generally use it for my coaching work and want to get the wheel in. There are loads of other Youtube vids with he same setup.

It's not the greatest camera position as it's just for fun, we've actually taped it to one of he tabs of the race seat.

Just like to say thanks for the comments guys and sorry I have not added anything further of late. This time of year tends to be quite busy work wise for me but I WILL post more when time allows.
