First Video
Got a GoPro to take with me to Petit le Mans at Road Atlanta last week.
At the track I noticed a couple things: a) pretty much the entire field came out at the same time for the practice sessions and b) spectators could walk right up to the inside wall of the pit lane exit. After a bit of looking around I found a gap in the fence on top of the wall. The gap was just big enough to fit the GoPro and a Gorilla Pod through. I don't have the LCD back for the GoPro so I just eyeballed the angle and hoped for the best. I was pretty happy with the result:

I've still got a ton of stuff to learn... frame rates, codecs, resolutions, software, etc... but this video stuff is a blast!
Thanks for taking a look and as always I'd love to hear any comments and/or suggestions!

Oh yes. Hearing protection definitely required. That spot is particularly loud because it's so close and it's just past the end of the speed limited section of the pit lane where the drivers are getting into the throttle.
