#1: Irnieracing.com is seeking out Sponsors for 2010. Author: irnieracing, Location: Kelowna BCPosted: Thu Dec 24, 2009 4:53 pm ---- Hello fellow OSB'ers.
Yes, I am looking for Sponsors to support my 2010 National Superbike Campaign. Please visit irnieracing.com to download my 2010 PDF Sponsorship Proposal.
I recently acquired GoPro Camera as a 2010 Sponsor, and the HERO HD is awesome. The possibilities for filming are endless.
I will hopefully run a three camera setup. I will try the GoPro Chest mount, which might be awesome if I stay low. The front fork cam, rear swingarm camera, and ofcourse forwards and backwards in multiple positions.

Thanks Colin.
Ya sleds are heavy. It sure is tough to dig them out. Happens too often since I can't steer in the powder!
I'm just happy the sled didn't hit that tree! Just skimmed it.
I prefer the two wheel variety :) It's impossible to write them off!

Thanks BLiNg.
It was a little scary at timez. My roommate Nathien convinced the Ski-doo dealer to give me a sled, in hopes I would get hooked. Nat's sled is a 154" track 2009.
Near the end of the video, where I'm going downhill and loose it into the tree. I was on the brake the entire time, and I had no idea if I was going to stop in-time. There was a two story drop to flat, if I went through the center opening. I was in panic mode, as I could not steer. Was too steep, and the tracks won't steer. Sled follows angle of decent pretty much.

Suction Mount. However, the best method is to use the 3M adhesive mounts. Like my Helmet cam mount.
#9: Irnie's Eastern Canada Superbike Documentary 2009: AMP NS Author: irnieracing, Location: Kelowna BCPosted: Sat Jan 16, 2010 8:01 pm ---- Irnieracing presents Marcel Irnie's Eastern Canada Superbike ONLINE HD VIDEO Documentary 2009:Atlantic Motorsports Park, Nova Scotia. "CLICK HERE FOR VIDEO"
"Marcel Irnie's quest for success in the Armour Bodies Amateur Sport Bike class of the Parts Canada Superbike Series brought him to Atlantic Motorsport Park (AMP) in Shubenacadie, NS. As a lone privateer, the West Kelowna, BC native made the arduous seven day journey by himself. Irnie arrived the week prior to the Parts Canada National to participate in the regional races at AMP. This race weekend was used to regain his fitness and prepare the machinery for the National race. Using race worn tires, Irnie rode conservatively, bringing his lap times into the 1:12's, placing 4th, 5th, and 3rd.
After a week of rest and preparation, Irnie was eager to go to battle in the National race. With some exuberance and fresh tires, Irnie pulled off a scorching 1:10.8; good enough for second in his class. This lap time would have been fast enough to qualify in the top ten in the "Pro Superpole" against Factory Teams. Post qualifying dyno readings showed that his 2008 ZX-6R was only delivering 99 horsepower at the rear wheel, when the bike should have been putting out 116rwhp. Despite being well down on power and grappling with a faulty steering stabilizer, Irnie went into the final with great anticipation..." cdnsuperbike.com
Marcel films his entire 10,000 Mile journey from the "second person perspective," with a unique film style he likes to call "active editing." The irnie.com online film quality is amazing at 720p High Definition.
Marcel films randomly and talks with fellow racers and crew including Brian Blaauwendraat, Jim Brooks, Bodie Edie, Todd McLean, Steve Crevier, Jodi Christie, Billy Shields, Brett McCormick, and Efram Ellenbogen.
After Nova Scotia, Marcel visits Kreater Custom Motorcycles in Mississauga Ontario for rest and repair. The adventure continues to Shannonville Ontario where Marcel must camp four weeks in a field, until the final national in September.
