Combination of shit tyres, entering the corner too fast, bit too much throttle really. Was very close to the front wheels going on so I let off slightly and the back came around and nearside wheel clipped the gravel which was going to spin me, obviously as you can see I held it and corrected it, felt alot worse in the car, but I was never out of control so it's all good, just a pant wetting moment for my passenger

I would have just kept it planted, well done for not losing it though.

If I'd have kept it planted the front wheel would have hit the gravel then I'd have really been fucked

Ive run wide a few times there, the car goes uneasy over the gravel but less so then with lift off induced oversteer, and you get more speed on the exit. Dont think the marshalls liked me covering the track though

Yeah that Scooby was doing my head in, you can hear me swear at one point Outbraked ftw. Blukoo that was plenty enough sideways for me

And nobody told me they were annoyed about the gravel being on track, except a guy who likes to keep his car mint and complained about gravel on track, I kept quiet

I just made a new thread with proper videos of the sessions for anybody interested
