Stowe Autox 5/31/09 picture and video thread

Post by sachilles »



This is such a let down, something happened with my camera on the last run. But it gives you an idea of the weather before my last run.
It's still processing on youtube, so it might not be available just yet(as of 10:20 am)

data logs of the last run in the hail with the spin (notice the tight loop)
and a normal run without the spin.

Nice video & map! I was sitting at the start line in the S2000 when behind me I see Tom waving his arms and yelling "DON'T GO!" then I look in front just in time to see you cross my vision spinning in a circle from my left to my right, then the hail starts REALLY coming down. I think that about sums up the turning point of the event. :lol:

Anyway I'll have tons of pictures to contribute once I get them uploaded & processed. Looking forward to seeing everyone else's stuff. :D

So after trying all sorts of technical things, and going over the error on microsofts website.......I unplugged the camera and plugged it back in, and all is fine.
:lol: :roll:
I present the hail induced spin.

I think the video really sums up the end of the day. :D Amazingly, it didn't look as dramatic from the in car as it did from the scoring tent! It was pretty epic from where I was standing.... :D

I really need to attach a camera to my helmet, so it can see what I am seeing.
I saw the double cones(at the cross over) coming at the side of my car....and wasn't exactly sure the best way to avoid them...so I just hit them.

That video looks like fun. :)

I had to duck out before the end of the last group went. I had to:
trailer the car to Barre and unload it
Drive the trailer to Montpelier and drop it off
Stop in Middlesex and unload all my tires, jacks, etc out of the back of the truck into my storage
drive the borrowed truck back to Stowe
Drive my car home

I got home at 8:30. Took a shower, and went to bed. Great job everyone, what a great first event of the year! :D
