ArtistsRifles Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 From the arena at W&P last year - playing time ia about 2' 40" - at around 1' 20" going for a spin gets a whole new meaning!!:cool2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArtistsRifles Posted February 11, 2010 Author Share Posted February 11, 2010 Yep - will be there again this year! :-) If the work situation isn't resolved soon though (i.e. I find a job) this might be my last year though...:-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FW200 Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 This year I'm bringing a camera.. big old broadcast shoulder one.. should lead to some good vids about the OT90 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtistsRifles Posted February 11, 2010 Author Share Posted February 11, 2010 This year I'm bringing a camera.. big old broadcast shoulder one.. should lead to some good vids about the OT90 You'll need a tripod as well then!! The ground gets a bit "bouncy" when it, and the 432's etc are bouncing around the arena. The clip that would have been truly excellent was the one no one got (as is usually the case) - we were going clockwise around the arena, up into 4th gear and opted for the big loop around the back. As we left the main loop there was a minor ridge in the track surface which we hit head on - for a brief moment in time the whole vehicle was airborne! No mean feat for 13 tons of armour!! :wow: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an oldy (1998) but the form factor means a lot to me. I also intend to do most shooting while cruising along in the vehicle if that's ok with you, what other way to show just how awesome such a vehicle is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't want you describing an arc out of the troop compartment, over the turret and on to the deck in front of us - you know what happens when the brakes are hit for a combat stop!! :-D :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
