#1 maxx levell Wall Near Miss Vid...  
Here's a link to a vid from the Outlaw Street Race last night at US60 Raceway in Hardinsburg Ky. It's my daughter's Father In Law. It's actually a couple of vids combined...the first being footage from my GoPro mounted on the car, and the rest from my camcorder from the line. It's about as close as you can get to the wall without touching! It was a nice save...

Cool video, you almost needed a new side view mirror.:p

Odd looking Mavericks though.

Yep lol. I actually moved the camera 2 passes prior to this. I had originally had it mounted on that quarter panel, and if I'd have left it there, it would have been toast for sure. It almost would have been worth it, just to get the footage. We thought it got hit anyway and didn't know for sure until we walked back to the pits.

The second part of the video is the one that really freaked me out as you can see how close you really came to the wall.......... wow.

I wasn't driving this time lol...and I've been riding that issue like a pet pony :clap: . The owner/driver (this time) is my daughter's father in law...I was running the camcorder this weekend. I drive the car pretty often, but not this time. I've been sending him clips of me driving and mentioning how straight my passes are lol.

There was a lot of discussion before we decided to show it to his wife...he may be grounded now lol.

Something like that...kind of why the camcorder vid ends abruptly...there allegedly might have been some choice words spoken by a couple of the crew. Although I would never encourage or condone anything like that :eek:

Very cool video to watch , although for the driver probably not so cool down below. Maybe a little warm and mushy (If you know what I mean). :eek::rollinglaugh::?:
