The partnership with Motorbase Performance is one I am extremely proud of as, in Motorbase, we have found a team that truly perform at the top end of the British motorsports world. The relationship allows us to continually test new features but also showcase why the Drift HD Ghost is the best action camera on the market today. The video quality is second to none. The battery surpasses all others on the market and the remote control and built-in LCD allow their mechanics to make sure they get the shot they want.
We also support the way Motorbase Performance nurture young talent and were lucky enough to have had the pleasure of sponsoring Jake Hill during his recent one race trial and subsequent class win at Croft.
Following recent on-board trials, the Drift HD Ghost camera proved itself to be a vital tool to the Motorbase squad; allowing the team to study on board footage alongside its data whilst offering a unique perspective and rare glimpse behind the scenes to motorsport fans and viewers.
David Bartrum, Motorbase Performance Team Principal added: The Drift HD Ghost is a great little camera; we were all really impressed with the quality of the on-board footage from the initial trials and the technical and media support and back up from Robin and his team has also been superb.
Were always looking for new ways to offer something different and more engaging to our fans and sponsors and our new partnership with Drift gives us the perfect opportunity to expand into new areas and increase the teams exposure to a new fan base. We are delighted to welcome Drift to the Motorbase Performance squad and look forward to long and successful partnership.
