See it work: fifteen hours at Utah Motorsports Campus

This is the full Saturday race from inside car #180 at the World Racing League round at Utah Motorsports Campus, with an SRC Inline IMSA Race Audio Recording System feeding the on-board camera. Everything you hear — driver, crew, pit calls — is coming through that one inline connection.

Watch lap 191 for a good example of what it captures. The lap counter runs across the banner at the top of the video. A fuel pickup pump had failed, and the whole problem gets diagnosed and worked out over the radio while the car is still on track.

Another example — a full lap, talked through. Five hours into Sunday’s race, the driver walks the whole of Utah Motorsports Campus corner by corner while driving it. That commentary is on the tape because of this same inline unit. Watch the corner-by-corner lap →
