Default Track day vid Autobahn C.C. full course

Here's a vid taken on my friend Tony's 600RR of me going 'round A.C.C. Labor day.
He stayed behind me just to shoot some video (could have passed me whenver he wanted).
My trans is skipping out of 3rd gear under load ....SO...I decided to keep it in 4th gear all the way around. Tight corners taken in 2nd so you'll see a guy on a 1000RR blowing past me on the back straightaway. No biggie..just taking it easy & working on my lines,body positioning. Absolutely LUV this racetrack, although it is a bit bumpy on some corners from all the Club members cars...oh well, take the good with the bad
Enjoy guys

That's so freakin cool. There's a road course by my house I recently learned about that has track days. It's definitely on my long-term goal list. Thanks for sharing it; gave you five stars

Looks like a nice track , I can see why you enjoy it so much

Where did you mount the camera ? Looks pretty low down from the shots , good view of the track and your bike.

Tony mounted the camera on the right side of his bike. He built a mount for it where he could use the fairing bolts as a way to secure it...pretty cool idea.
