Make sure you check out the wreck that starts at about 1:40. This was my second time ever driving a go kart. I decided to make a homemade helmet strap. I recorded three races altogether, this was the second. I used an Xacti E2 AVC/H.264 video camera. It worked great except one corner where it was not lit very well. If you live by Olathe Kansas I suggest checking out Sadler's Racing. It's great fun and the Go karts are very quick for a family karting center. Avg speeds around 35mph.
