Here are a couple of clips from my in car camera that was taken during the track event I did at Texas World Speedway with the supra guys that were there. One is of my fastest lap of the day which is my personal best so far and the other is the spin that happened on the next lap going into turn 1. Enjoy.

Update on me:
I got my military stuff mostly squared away this week end and I'm going to be graduating and commissioning on the 9th of May as a 2LT in the US Army and sometime this fall I will be heading to Fort Rucker to learn how to fly Black hawks. After that Ill be living around the Fort Hood/Austin area flying a couple times a month and working construction in Austin.

Good stuff HW! Nice footage. Btw, what kind of speeds were you hitting?

Sounds like things will be ramping up for you pretty quickly. Although some in the media might consider your service misguided, I personally find it very honorable. Thanks for your service.

Definitely thanks for your service. Also, I would hope that the Black Hawks you fly aren't as crappy as the ones in BF2 :)

I have a friend who has flown in Desert Storm, Afghan, Iraq, and Kuwait, and he says that BF2 does a sh!tty job with their physics. He said hands down they are much more nimble in tight spots than the attack choppers.

All I can say is F the media and all their BS. The military knows whats up and Im doing it because I want to serve my country and to fly a badass helicopter.

That turn that I spun in I normally carry speeds from 80 to 90 through there. I would get up to 135 on the main strait. If my clutch was working then I could get up to around 160 on the main strait.
