Thought I would share a video that I took @ Mosport DDT yesterday.
Taken with a Go Pro HD from a couple different angles on the inside and outside of the car. I love the angle close to the front wheel.

Nice vid...U can see the suspension working, how fast did you get to?

Glad to see that the cam survived being that low close to the ground ;)

Its the DDT, so not the longest strait at all... I think I was up to about 140-150km/h in 4th before needing to brake.

The GoPro camera is pretty amazing, and the nice big suction cup that it came with is working well.

Always amazing and slightly terrifying when you see how much the tire pulls away from the lip when cornering hard! Pretty cool to see from that angle. It also seems like you were understeering quite a bit? Can you adjust the power split or run a different tire width f/r in the speed 6? You need a looser rear end :p

speed6 doesn't have a manual power split... does it all on its own. changing tire widths isn't really an option... I have 230/45's on their now and with the offset of the rims I had to get the rear rolled. Wouldn't wanna go any wider. I did get a thicker RSB to help the understeer, and next year I may try a R compound tire. I also put more PSI in the rear tires than the front, but wouldn't wanna go any less on the fronts (42psi) as you can see that the hankooks don't have the stiffest sidewall.

one of the M3 groups. I used to ride with the organizer, and he keeps me informed on their track days.
usually a decent mix of cars as well... not much Japanese stuff in the advanced group (mostly M3's, Z06's and 911's) but the intermediate & beginner has euro and japanese stuff.
