Great car + great tracks = fun. Hopped on the drone footage trend during a casual track day. Also had a friend drive my car for fun, shown in the second video

I know nothing about drones really but shocked to see how quick that thing moves?! How fast actually are they?

Sorry, I pulled the audio track out of my IG Reels footage. The audio level probably blasted your speakers!

A proper track is a drag track, so... that equation doesn't work :p

I get it though, some people like corners. ;)
Haha I respect the love for your preference. Actually.. are people starting to use drones in drag racing too? I guess the really fast drag cars are too fast for a drone.

Yes and yes. People are using some drones at the drag strip, but the fast cars are too fast. There are those cool 360 cameras that attach on a pole that make for cool video though.

Hahaha is that the clip where a drone flies into the car by mistake? Wild!

FWIW, drone operators out here can't just fly at a track. It requires pre-clearance with the track, FAA licensing, and a commercial insurance policy covering up to millions in dollars of liability. Not bad! If I get hit, maybe I can make a claim and get a repainted panel.

If a random person just tires to fly randomly, I've seen them get shut down quite quickly at NorCal tracks.

yeah I'd be terrified the drone hit my arm or something like that.
