I figure for my first post on here should be a video I just finished producing of the local rallyX we had here in Ewing, IL.

Hope you enjoy!

Nice! i love videos like this (especially because i make em too). Up only 4 days after the event... thats impressive!

Wish we had elevation changes like that around here...

Damn, that place looks like fun! I am going to have to make one of these events some time soon...

We need a track like that out in CA, faster and with elevation changes.

Cool video

[MConte05]

Thanks for the compliments. The course was insanely long, I didn't really push my car too hard since it still is rather new and some of those extreme elevation changes worried me. Haha. However I am not really into the time's yet, I just drive the course cause it is so much fun.

I love seeing the brat out there rocking it.

I love that location.

Nice video and good editing, I'm digging it
Its also awesome to see a Legacy out there.

Nice recovery :)

So yeah, I got myself all physicked to go down there this weekend and show you all how its done, but then I realized that its a 6hr drive for me..... F-that! Maybe if i didn't just get back from Houghton, MI, and heading over to Clarksville, MI in 2 weeks..... There is always next year.

Nice to see you around Matt.

Great video. There are lots of video/pic whores around here... and were proud of it. Next time I gotta get a lap with that camera. Results are up. Ron was nippin at your heels fool. Jokin, you had a good 15 seconds on him.

Rob is F'n nuts running that Legacy Spec-B out there. Props to Rob.

See you Sunday!

Unfortunately Ron and I won't be out there this Sunday. The 4-hour drive out to Ewing is just a bit too much for us, especially since we already have plans on Saturday night in Rolla. However the Civic will be back for next season with a good set of winter tires, possibly a turbo, and a host of other goodies, maybe even a roll-cage.

I won't be back in the STL rallycross circuit until August/September as I am headed out to Baltimore in January to do an 8-month long co-op with a Roller Coaster design firm.

Do you know where any other people posted their pictures and video of the day? Haven't seen any except for Ron and I's stuff.

Unfortunately, nobody else took pictures. Usually the Huebbes take pictures but since there haven't been many participants this season, they have to work the starting gate instead. I think Ryan took some pics. I'll try to get some.

I won't be making it out this weekend either. After the last event, one of my front axles finally started to show major signs of crapping out. It's making alot of popping noises. The boot is completely dry.

Great video. The rear mounted camera is sick. How fast did you get going on that track?

[MConte05]

I never took it out of 2nd gear, but I would reckon at some points was up to 40mph or so? I wasn't quite paying attention the speed ever....

I am working on two new camera mounts though, all the hardware is sitting next to me right now actually. Can't wait to test them out on a random 10-hour roadtrip through Arkansas this Saturday.
