What happened to the forward facing camera during the feature?
Really nice video/data setup. I've been thinking about what to do next to replace the ancient and now out of business maxq setup that I started with.
I thought you did really well for you're first time out in the CRX. Even got to run on a damp track and stay out of trouble!

That was an excellent run for your first time! I enjoyed watching both your races. It is good for you guys to post videos of our combined races so we can see your race, and also see some of our own. In the feature race I also enjoyed seeing Shane, myself and Tommy running nose to tail late in our SM race. Great camera setup; I like the speedo and all 3 cameras. What setup is that?

Not sure what's going on with the forward camera. It's mounted on the windshield itself (while the others are mounted to the cage or frame). I am going to play with it a bit. I also need to work with the rear-facing camera placement/focus so I get more of the traffic behind me.
The system is a RaceKeeper World Challenge Series. So far I like the system allot. Some tweaks to be made, but it's doing the job.
When the top running SMs came up no my tail I knew they were racing hard. The lead Yellow car had spun early in the feature and the next yellow car was a bit back from me. I let them by to enjoy some racing while I drove safe to maintain my spot in Yellow.

I was impressed by virtually all our newer drivers, who willingly allowed us room for racing. It is good to see such sportsmanship at our home track! Thank you all for your courtesy.

I knew that I was comfortable in my position and didn't need to race in front of you guys. I also know what it's like to have a non-courteous driver in front of you NOT racing but holding the racing line.
Plus, I wanted to watch your lines for a bit; learn.
Looking forward to January.

I have allot of autocross <gasp> experience, 4 Lemons races, two GCRS events, and the LA400 under my belt. This was my first outing in the CRX, but not my first at CGB.
