Le Mans Helmet Cam - P&M C6R

Some interesting night-time helmet cam footage from Jordan Taylor's C6-R at Le Mans:

Wonder what one of those camera setups are worth...?

Racing at night would be freaky ... especially in such a fast car!

i'm sure it must be pretty well lit.

in 2009 I did a 24 hour lemons race and the overnight bits were interesting. We had completely failed to add additional headlights to the car and this was a major problem. I went off in the night because I turned in too early.Luckily I came right back on and I don't think it even cost us any time!

Visual Tracking.

This view really goes a long way to illustrating the visual tracking that is needed to run at Sebring. If you watch closely you can follow his views of each apex, showing clipping points and roll out on exits. That was cool!
