Triumph TR3A Curborough Sprint 18.8.2019

Hi, Welcome to another of my classic car racing videos. This is me and my 1959 Triumph TR3a together with some of the other TR Register Members. We are taking part in the RevingtonTR / TR Register Sprint and Hillclimb Championship.
This is the summer Curborough Figure of eight sprint.
My Car is 93BHP at the wheels 117BHP at the flywheel. it still has the original steering box. it has an overdrive that you can see me use with the fingers of my right hand. it does not have an LSD.
There are a number of TR Register members competing at this sprint, and a variety of Triumph cars as you will see from the paddock video.
I also managed to complete my last run and get track side to video, with my phone, a couple of the others.
I have also video’d the cars in our class at this event. There are plenty of others in the championship but not everybody competes in all the rounds and it was the TR International club weekend as well

Can I ask what camera and mic you used for this? Really impressive how there's no wind sound

Hi Zander
The camera is an older GoPro hero 4 mounted on the safety roll bar with a cheap remote microphone from eBay “Pro 3.5mm Active Clip Mic Microphone For GoPro Hero 4/3+/3 Sports Camera “
Mounted on the rear bumper bracket near the exhaust tail.
Thanks for your interest.
