    I love these vids especially the ones where you talk as you are driving the lap. Epic lap man, congrats on the record

    233kmph phew! The live commentary shows you've got the extra bandwidth to actually think at race pace. Good stuff!

      Thank you.
      The max speed is more or less accurate, but my GPS accuracy has been really inconsistent lately. I've grown so frustrated with it that I bought a new one, here's hoping it results it more accurate data now.

      @@mostlyuselessgarage I had a Qstarz that worked great for many years, it eventually died. I have since been using a Garmin GLO, and I am rather unhappy with it. This time I have sourced a 'RaceBox mini', I'll see what it's like the next time the car is on track.

    Wow! That's an amazing time well done. Just checked the write up on the car, awesome build. Were you on the A050 on this lap? Same times as a new 992 GT3.

    Really great looking lap man!
    I’m not sure it was intentional or not but your camera placement and rear view mirror makes it easy to track your eye and head movement, looked like you’re doing a great job of looking ahead and focusing on corner exit

    • @Bbeavis
      @Bbeavis  Рік тому +1

      Thank you. The camera positioning is not strictly intentional, there's not a lot of better places to mount the camera in the relatively small cabin of the MX-5 - but it does work out pretty well I think. I am not as good at focussing forwards as I should be, but hey I'm just an amateur enjoying the driving, hardly an expert racer.
