    Default Top Secret VIR Pro Race Video

    You guys know that Driver's Services work their butts off prepping Bill's car and dont like us posting whole race videos that give away all their speed secrets, but just to get everyone pumped up for the race next weekend at Watkins Glen, Jim has agreed to let us post the video from the inaugural FF Pro Race at VIR. He's not exactly happy about it, but it is a pretty cool video so he finally agreed.

    This is Race #1 on Saturday, front view. Hope you enjoy it. Looking forward to seeing everyone at WG next week.

    posting video is deff a cath 22, i'm not at the front, so i won't do, & if i where i see the potential for giving out too much info.

    nice battles at front, great racing!

    It looks even better than that VIMEO video posted. For whatever reason that's not uploaded in HD...on our computer, uncompressed, it's very impressive. Absolutely huge viewing angle too...142 degrees or something silly like that. 1080p at 30fps or 720p at 60fps.

    It's even better quality than the GoPro HD, in my opinion, plus it's a bullet/lipstick cam...so
