I've finally finished some video stuff from Scott's trip to NASA HyperFest, and I'm desperately trying to get it online before everybody starts enjoying their weekend. There were a couple of SNAFUs today, but the finished product is finally uploading to YouTube as we speak.

Look for a link in 12 minutes. Don't scam out of work early, and you'll be among the first to see the in-car footage and hear Scotts pithy commentary about the race weekend. Hope you enjoy!

Very close now...

Good stuff, but terrible compression on that video.

Looks like you got real lucky on that first lap contact, that could have been bad for a lot of people. Hanging back was an awesome move there.

That looks like too much fun.

The HD version is still being choked by YouTube. It should be online soon as well.

(edit- it's available now in 480p. Much, much nicer to watch.)

Great video. The Sentra was all over the place in the corners.

Spidy sense...hmm! Who knew? Here I always thought it was just a gut feeling that riiiigght THERE is not a good place to be just now.

Was there a GRM booth up there? I couldn't find it if there was, but saw lots of GRM shirts.
