I think I would get lost on that first course.

And the second guy didnt seem like he was trying.

I think I would get lost on that first course.
I'd prefer the first one to the second one. Second one has too many cones, it's like going down the aisles of a supermarket or something, gives you no option of where to go. First one is more challenging, and is probably easy enough to follow with a better view (the camera is mounted really low). You have to be looking way ahead anyway.

I like the ones you posted a lot better mxs, but on the first one he did say it was his first time, i think i would have done the same thing. Those others looked like they knew how to do it already.

more like the guy couldn't properly control the car. probably had the tire pressure wrong too, if it was his first event. which is understandable.
