Sure it was not that fast down them curves but I was not looking at speedo at the time . . Lol. . . From few videos we got lap time for van looks to be around 1.51. Not sure if that's good . . . Felt quite fast. . And was driving hard. . . Not quite as aggressive as your driving hard tho AK . . He he

Not sure if I believe 120 lol I think my videos show me doing 90 on GPS, but yeah I wouldn't be looking at the speedo either 
Shame it was the GP as I did the National so can't compare times. GP track does look good though

Think I preferred doing the national track layout cos gp track part with 2 hair pins don't exactly suit fwd car. Wot sort of time did your car do on national track graham. . Seeing your videos you look super smooth on track .would say I am more aggressive and wild so lines are not so consistent.

I haven't driven the GP track only passengered, but having driven the National I do prefer the National, mainly because it's faster I think and also not as harsh on the brakes as the GP circuit. And yeah good point about FWD car low speed exits always makes putting power down interesting especially with your 300 horses!
I used to be like that mate, but you have to be smooth with RWD or you'll be in the barriers. Instruction was the best thing I ever had and will continue to have, better than any mod you can buy for the car

Yea it looked like 120 from the passenger seat so could be 110-115 in reality. He was pushing it!

Yeah looks like I was doing 100mph through there, not actually much different from you! Speedo would have been different obviously so can't really compare to Iaz but compared to your video we are at a similar speed, I was shaving about 5mph off with a stab of the brakes to settle the car
Good video 
Edit: On my fastest lap I got 104mph GPS speed through Craners

He he, it's good when you find a car with similar pace to lern from line they are using etc and which is quicker, I had fun almost keeping up with they quick mk5 golf, exige and the atom, all I think we're driving within there cars limits and I was having to over drive the van to keep up. . . Which ment that I always seem to be getting worse exit from corner cos was trying to catch on the brakes. . . Brother is editing few videos from the van. . One with interesting moment with golf and 7 type car which golf basically forced him to not be able to make the chicane. . He went straight into pits to try avoid being told off I think. . Lol
