Hmm...not sure why, but...that vid left me wanting something more LOL
And I forgot about the rear bumper being a different color and almost thought my montor needed adjusting, then I figured it out

Ya just try not to wince when you see the different color bumpers.
It doesn't spin as much as you'd think it would.
Here is another, action starts @ 15 seconds

Thats pretty cool, you can see the suspension lift as the weight of the car transfers to the rear.

Yep agreed...the red bumper is the most distracting thing I've seen in a while lol. What kind of camera is that there sir?

Very cool...I haven't been keeping up on technology lately, so I had no idea smaller cameras like that were even capable of slow motion that nice. Is it actually a higher shutter rate, like high speed cameras?
I wonder what else you'll come up with with this camera now

Nice feature - I was surprised it didn't spin more, I take it that was intentional?

Was the Traction Control Turned On?

It helps to disconnect the WSS and apply the rear brakes if you want more spin.
Notice that is was already rolling before it started to spin. It takes a bit of time to build up the rpms to pump up the pressure.
Nice video though. It's giving me ideas for some photo ops during WCBF11. I unfortunately don't have the slow motion feature on my SLR....3 year old technology is now antiquated.

Sort of what I expected. The idea came from a TG ep (not like they havent done it before) but you can actually see the deformation of the rubber as traction is lost.
Good try though, I enjoyed it!

Maybe you need to borrow my camera mount and then try it again....
