CAT 9 7 2013 Autocross

[venice532]

This is my first try with a gopro, I mounted the camera pretty high on the windshield so over that older pavement it got a little shaky even with youtube doing their stabilization thing.
Maybe next time I'll try it on the hood or maybe put the hardtop on.
Any advice from experienced users is appreciated.

time

Hi Cobrakidz, my best run was just under 55 seconds, I think Paul P. was under that by a sliver.
A couple of the Morgans a very quick white alger (Warren's nemesis) were a couple of seconds quicker.

I am still in the single digits when it comes to times I've autocrossed so I'm trying to learn.

Go to last half of the 33rd second of the video I posted and you can see 2 skid marks that arc off to the right, that was from my first run when I spun out.

I came out of the first right sweep and stomped on the gas to get to that first cone that started the fast stretch.
Once I was around it I must have blipped the throttle a bit and I got out of control and did a 180.
Still not sure what happened, I was a little more careful on the next 3 runs.

I did see this posted on the larger Sunbeam Tiger facebook group:
