Craiglm68 Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 That's the best in car video track day I've seen....clear view of the track, the cabin, instruments, your hairy arms and gauntlets etc....great work. And that track looks epic! Nicely driven of course. Was there any "heel n toeing" going on? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, I'd be interested to know what equipment was used, its really good quality! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that track looks epic! Nicely driven of course. Was there any "heel n toeing" going on? Thanks! I was very happy with how the video came out, however I did need to work on it in post production. I've been researching how to improve the quality of video coming out of my GoPro for a while and this was the first attempt, and it's actually a pretty easy process. The camera is a GoPro 6 black, set to 1080p and 30fps. EV is dialled to -1.5 due to the bright sunshine. Then I used a programme called Davinchi resolve and followed this Youtube video (below) to produce the results you see. It's super quick to do once you get the hang of it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm able to do it pretty much without thinking now, the only time I really struggle is if the pedal goes long on the brakes and therefore I can't get over to blip the throttle. There's still plenty of room for improvement, but it's very satisfying when you nail it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That does look EPIC! love the whole ‘squirmy’ moment right at the end of the video as you come out of the corner at the end of the paddock straight - conveniently the video ends then... 🤪😉😁 (Hope you recovered it though 🥺👍🏻) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got carried away by the run to the line and left myself a lot to do. 🤪 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sevenfourate Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Great vid ! And i bet that was a fun trip. You certainly can't be accused of not using your Cayman 'properly'. Always upto something 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanderinwurzel Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Great video, love the ending 👏 I have done a track day at Spa before in my previous car, cant wait to do it again but in the Cayman, such a great circuit and sure it would be even more fun in the Porsche.
