AutoX when watching video: holy crap I’m slow. Cheers to LongtimeLurker for sending me video! It’ll help me improve for my next run.

I get the same thing when I use my gopro on the ext of my car. I think “damn this is gonna be great footage” then it just looks like I’m commuting

Most cars look slow on autocross from a distance, until they spin out or slide and the observer realizes that they were pushing the limits at a low relative speed.

When I show the average person video from inside my car, especially with audio of engine revs and tires squeaking, they tend to be suitably impressed, some even get scared.

I should probably ask for my sisters to mail me my GoPro, then.
