Cool vid, thanks! Not a whole lot of cones on the course, no wonder you got lost!

So what do you have on your car that they put you in SSTS?

Very cool, how did you set-up your camera? What's your "shopping list" for your car?

How long are you out there and how many runs do you get?

I'd love a DIY for it!
