I don't give a shit what anyone says, 9.45 with 125bhp and road tyres is superb.

your also very on/off with the pedals and turning in.. you would be better trying to be a lot smoother, do you actually know where the track goes and the way the corners are made up? i know you've been a couple of times but sometimes i thought you seemed to be a bit cautious of some corners and once you knew it was ok you stamped on it.

car sounds nice too.


Love this, go out there give it a go. Record your lap so we can rip you to shreds as well, oh and done a track day yet?

This isn't like driving on a PS3, real world physics apply.

If you kept your foot down we could possibly have a new faster line through that corner

do what?

because i knew that going straight over there would lead me straight back onto the track, i knew not to bother slamming on the brakes, not knowing that could have paniced hit the brakes and ended up spinning into the barrier or some shit

Ok ok, so the driving wasn't totally race line perfect. I'd be slightly hesistant too, especially when you have to drive the car back home.
But, I thought it was a very good video to watch. I enjoyed it thoroughly

I do have a slight issue tho steve.
Nothing major.
I think the race chrono thing is wrong.
It took 30secs from start to finish to get through the road works, that section of track would take about 12 secs ish to get through so I reckon you would have only lost about 15-18secs in real time getting through the road works.

But your lines, speed, etc etc are not in question here as I have been there done it so know what I'm talking about.

Lolz.

So I reckon it's another 9.50.

Like wise my quick lap should have been a 9.40ish and I reckon I lost 5 secs at the roadworks, but was a much shorter and faster section.

Any way great vids.

How was Dunkerque.
