Here's linky to a video of a lap around Miller Motorsports Park, the new 4-mile road course in beautiful Tooele, Utah. Looks like big fun.

i'm sure theres some kinda landscaping going in, but it'd be a whole lot easier to do it and then landscape it, i'd think

I'm with you. Some more dramtic ups and downs would be nice. For club events it should still be fine.

Best wishes,

That video was shot at about 40 % speed, and the lap took 6 mins. So the guys doubled the speed to make it look better. The track is HUGE, and the site is top notch!

Ah...for a moment, I thought the driver hooked up a mechanism from the camera to his steering rack. Neat video though!
