Onboard Formula Atlantic race at Thunderhill

Sunday morning race at Thunderhill in November 2020. Started 3rd and finished 3rd behind Steve Romak (March 80A) and Danny Baker (Ralt RT1). I am driving a 1977 Chevron B39 Formula Atlantic ex Keke Rosberg. Shot with Cambox Meca visor cam / helmet cam.

Oh Lord, the memories of racing a formula Ford (Lotus 61) at Thunder Hill. (CSRG, HMSA and HSR-West). I saw a couple corners where we drove a different line in a 'Ford,' but you've got double our power and a limited slip differential! Don't ever quit!!! There's nothing to replace it!

Fords make a fine racing car.
Thank you Carroll Shelby

this looks like one of those hyper realistic prototype games

God how does this not get more likes?! This is insane!

AMAZING STUFF! Thanks for sharing!

[@Savorychicken41]

Wonder what lap times do there get

[@IainRayYT]

Fantastic!

[@ricklarner9263]

Great drive Laurent! Didn't know you had an Atlantic!!

[@repetitivemotion]

I’d like to see some footage of the car as it’s parked in the paddock

[@Mr_Twister77]

Cool sound!

[@kdcobra64]

I have LOTS of seat time at Thunder Hill

[@DeoVindice_61-65]

What type engines are used in these cars? They sound sick.

[@Creeperboy099]

Something like a Toyota 4A-GE or a Cosworth BD

[@laurentparmentier6103]

Cosworth BDD

[@motorsportministries7843]

How much does one of these cost? What is your model/chassis and engine? How much does it cost to race it? What do you do for a living to support racing? Very interested! Thank you

[@motorsportministries7843]

Sorry! I see now its a chevron! But my last two questions im still very curious!

[@natechatigny7107]

@@motorsportministries7843 Not sure if you still care but I found this: www.race-cars.com/carsold/chevron/1078807619/1078807619ss.htm might be the same car

[@laurentparmentier6103]

@@natechatigny7107 correct - that’s the car roughly 10 years ago before it was sold to the previous owner.

This is super cool! Can you tell me if there is stabilisation ON? It looks very shakey

[@laurentparmentier6103]

There is no stabilisation. The camera is inside my helmet.

[@jaredneaves7007]

@@laurentparmentier6103 thanks for replying, I want to get one and they keep advertising stabilisation but I've never seen footage from one that was stabilised yet.

[@pascalvigneron742]

Jared Neaves this footage is recorded with the Cambox V3 model without stabilization. We get electronic stabilization with our latest model V4 available now ;-)

[@jaredneaves7007]

@@pascalvigneron742 yeah but there is literally no stock footage of the stabilisation working on TH-cam. Makes it hard when even the people uploading v4 footage say they don't have working stabilisation

[@danielwolfe4169]

how did you get the camera to look so raw and pure

[@BradfordtheEclectic]

The sound quality is atrocious; unwatchable.

[@jimmyz2098]

So take a hike....

[@dielaughing73]

I think it captures exactly what it sounds like. The engine is raw and loud, and the wind is noisy. What else were you expecting?

[@freakinccdevilleiv380]

Lmao

[@Sublogics]

yes but there are ways to counter this easily.
