Sunbeam Imp Historic racer - CSM 2010

First wet race in the Imp. Wow, needed to wrap my head around that a bit. We only had Carbon Metallic pads and they were way to grippy in the light front of the Imp, so they locked up at a feather's weight on the pedal. Still managed to have fun, and the Imp is a very quick machine for a measly 998ccs! Having a nice tussle with a Fiat 128 And a Mk2 Cooper S

@sturdle wow thanks! :) I'll do my best this season to live up to it!

what camera are you using? Brilliant that......

@sturdle Hi, thanks! The camera is a very cheap 2008 Sony DV (Tape). Was about US $ 200 in Norway (which probably means $100 in the states)  Looks good on youtube, uploading in 720-quality, but not as nice on a TV, so considering upgrading. The mount is from pegasus, and it's fab. Video edited in MS Movie maker.

@Vegardma grip at the rear was plenty...if I had some at the front to balance it with...I'll do more drifting next time :)

There should have been more sideways action :-D
