From the VRRA event, Mosport 2011. Watch especially at 3:00 when the bike behind me almost crashes coming onto the front straight when he tries to drift across the concrete seam- a no no.

Epic Mosport on board Norton race video

Now that video sure shows the leans and strains like I ain't seen before on DIY bike camera angles. How'd you get so many different views in this one?

I know too well about crossing paving seam-gaps at close to the ton on Houston's freeways on my lost P!!. Its was one of the main reasons I did not ride for 25+ years, as traffic congestion would force me into them and if I went down I'd be run over next instant. I have since learned to avoid that sort of upset while giving up hope saving crashing on THE Gravel steeps - messed up good by road grader, >>>WOT throttle into face of disaster that instead sorta floats front over the oblique snatch down gaps so bike sorta crashes back up in the way you'd want it to. Anything less than about unicycling the front to ignore it - is slap down city I found out hard way.

I counted 5 cameras on the bike and at least one in the pits. How much do those things weigh?

Are you referring g to #577 at 3:03 on the video?

Cool video, thanks for posting. I would like to see some shots from around the track, passing and tight leans etc., cut in to the video next time :P

Nice shot Jean!
 
What the hell happened to Herb? He's lost half his body mass!

Get that man back on the Poutine!
 
Are you ready for this...... I only own one camera. I filmed different sessions and spliced it all together using clever editing. I got the continuity of #75 (Mick V.) passing me down turn 2 from the back and then front because he made exactly the same damn pass on me in 2 races and I had changed the camera mount. If you watch carefully you can tell in which clip I am just sort of cruising in probably one of my first practice sessions of the weekend and when I am hard on it in an actual race.
