It is hard to try and keep your eye trained on the line, I caught myself (multiple times) by looping the car with my eye drifting away towards where I was going, not where I would be. I was only to get it around once before looping it. It was still very challenging and fun.

It is a great way to get OPR off for sure! (that is why they are there)

Where do you have your gopro mounted? Off the rear windshield?
i actually had quite a bit more but the gopro died unfortunately. crappy battery life :/

it's mounted between my two seats on an adhesive mount. GREAT location to for on track videos. can see your knees, shifts, steering, where you're looking, and of course on track.
