Hey Guys, This is a little off topic but it's awesome fun!
I have created a website dedicated to this new sport! (If you can call it that) :)
To give you an idea of what it's all about I have attached some videos from our first race season.
Events are now starting to pop up around the world so log in and get involved!
Enjoy...

Well done!
See you in the next olympic games!
Comment by Darrell Burkey on January 4, 2013 at 2:50pm Fantastic videos and looks like great fun. Thanks.
Comment by Scott James on January 4, 2013 at 3:43pm Thanks guys!
Hey Magnus, All of us met on a forum so that's why I set up the site.
If everyone who likes it signs up to the website you will probably find a few people in your area to race! :)
Looks like a lot of fun. It's a new motor sport!
Comment by Hasufel on January 4, 2013 at 7:23pm Great stuff guys and congrats, it's the future of "video games"!
Maybe paint/mark the waypoints for us noobs watching the vids, as it got a bit scary realizing one had to pass through the tree there and in between stuff, slowly building up a mental map of the racetrack ourselves? Also, maybe add a real time tracker and a map?
Enjoyed watching the 4 videos as the tension was building up. Great ending!
Better than Wipeout, can't wait to join the league someday :)
Comment by Scott James on January 4, 2013 at 7:30pm We filmed the tracks first so that the guys could watch the videos a few times before going to the track. It helped allot in memorising where to go.
These side by sides are also interesting.....
Comment by Eric Maines on January 4, 2013 at 7:32pm Nice idea! The Stevie Wonder song to the guy with the fpv goggles in Race 2 made me lol! I'll have to ask them to add this type of challenge to the FPV North America meetup in 2013 :D
Comment by Hasufel on January 4, 2013 at 7:34pm The side by sides vids are very good. Thanks Scott! So close in laptimes :)
