Nationals pad at Lincoln Ne. airport

This is a first attempt at a) GoPro video and b) posting on YouTube. The GoPro is the Wide (170 degree lens) and I am not sure I like it. Sorry about the bad audio, I had it set on HI instead of LO so it's noisy.

I had already secured the B/SP win but lowered my time another half second on this run.

I didn't realize you were in town.   :idiot: 

No lie, that is...dark and noisy...and still better than my own photo/cinematographic efforts.  :lol:

Congrats on the win!

That does it...now that my weekends are free from Kappa themed social events, I gotta hit the track!  :drag:

Nice run!

Oh, and how do you like the neck collar for the helmet? Are they worth buying?

I like the horse collar. When I had a D/SP 77 Civic there was the benefit of a serious rally seat, four point roll bar, and four point belt system. I did not get IN the Civic, but rather WORE the Civic. Sort of like putting on shoes. For a couple years I did not wear the collar. Last year I started wearing it again. And this year, I am wearing volleyball knee pads. My head is more stable, and my legs do not feel all the banging about in the car. I do use a G-Lock seat belt lock. If I could use a four point harness I would, but installing a roll bar is out of the question. With my head stabilized, my fat ass cinched up in the seat, and my knees not feeling the hard plastic, there are fewer distractions. Better.
