Are you going to fix a motor to it did you say? I don't mind trying to put together a manual one. I probably only need a meter long slider. But it would be nice to have it at different heights and angles.

Interested to see any work.
I've made my own rig for stills on the car but I really want to get into video next

Got a morning session at Oulton Park on the 31st January. A bit of footage from the day I thought I'd post up as I saw a few clio sports and a few other Renault sports on track. Some of you may be able to spot yourselves on track.
Sessions 1 and 2 of 5. Others are still uploading.
Astra VXR...
Agreed, did you do the powerevent? Great day to demonstrate what the cars are capable of, easily out run the insignia VXR round a track!
