It's almost Okemo Hillclimb time. Just a reminder that if you are a rookie at the hill you should take a few minutes to read over the rules to be sure you are coming prepared. You should also print out the NEHA health form and bring it, filled out, to the event. http://hillclimb.org/events/NEHA_medica ... e_form.doc

Also, remember that you will have to be there on Friday night for rookie orientation. Any questions, don't hesitate to ask. Remember, BRING WORKERS!!!

See everyone this weekend. :D

Thanks to organizers and workers. Had a great time.

Here is a link to the video... select either 720HD or 1080HD. Unsure what happened, but the quality of the video on youtube is pretty poor.

Great time indeed. Thanks to everyone that made it happen.

Great video Steve. I intentionally left my camera @ home. Wanted to focus on learning, but will bring it next time.

I learn from my videos.

I think I figured out why the quality isn't that good. I used the 1080 setting on the camera (this is only 30fps) instead of the 720 setting at 60fps. I think that is the reason.

Darn.... I think the video would have been pretty cool.

It does look great on my computer, just not on youtube.

My fastest run of the weekend.
Lots to learn about this hill. Watching the video, I did a lot of coasting. Really botched the corner by the Ambulance check point too.

Love it. Needs some cartoon voice commentary to go with it.
