as some may know, a group of us from the midland's section did a trackday last saturday at anglesey . For a few of us it was our first track experience so i decided it would be nice to have a momento of the occasion so i payed a bloke £20 to strap a camera to my bike so i would always have a piece of the day.

Im obviously not flying round as i was still trying to adapt to track riding but am open to constructive criticism Very Happy

here you go

Good for a first timer. Dont be afraid to lean the bike more and carry 'a lot' more corner speed, the bike will easily handle it.

Try to hit the apex of the corner, you need to be on the throttle at the apex and accelerating. Not cracking the throttle open, just slow and progressive.

Dont worry though, that will all come the more days you do.

Now you've done your first, it's going to get adictive!! Wink Thumbs Up

I just really really dont want to break my bike as it's the only one i got and depend on it for work and everyday life, plus im gonna be paying for it for the next 6 years Laughing

yep for a first attempt you look good, keep it up and you'll find within a few more days if you are willing to PUSH you'll go alot faster and surprise yourself.

I think what's hard to appreciate with these onboard vids is it feels alot faster than the videos turns out. Just makes you respect the top guys in bsb etc even more.

yeah, i was quite impressed with it aswell, the guy put's the vid's to dvd for you to take home and the quality on that is superb.
im not sure what equipment he was using though, it looked like a JVC handy camera type thing with the screen that flips out to the side which was stuffed in a little tank bag along with an external 12v battery, then there was a little bullet camera running off it and that taped to the front of the bike. Sorry i cant give you any more info

I couldn't quite make out the signage at the end of the vid, but he clearly had a website. Can you remember the name of the dudes company? Hopefully I/we can google him!! Thumbs Up
