Onboard footage, a little cautious at times and still learning the gp lines, enjoy the action!

Looks great fun that, I had seen bit on trackday throphy last year and wanted to get the van into it but I would have been really stretching my budget to have done it:-(
Do they still have classes? Where does yours sit?
Wot power and weight is your car? Seems to pass on straights nicely :-)

It's tough being the top class though, you have to be pushing flat out all the time to get a good result in class.
I'm glad I did it though, no way I could afford it now with my lifestyle choices

Yeah they still have classes, mine is in class B which is the top for trackday trophy, limit is 175bhp @ the wheels per ton.
I had to put ballast in mine to bring it in the class, but it now works out to 173bhp per ton 
Got a quaife box which makes all the difference! As I qualified 23rd I was in the mix with some class c cars, that's why I can pass them easyier on the straights

Haha yeah it was abit! Found out later during the pit stop that the oil coming out the dip stick was slightly dripping onto left front and then rear tyres. Hense the occasional slide on! I thought it was just the 888's overheating! Lol

Have they changed the rules? did you not pit at all during the race?

Thanks for the results paul, yeah I came into the pits for my mandatory pit stop, that's when mates spotted the oil, opened the bonnet and saw the dipstick had popped out flooding the bay with engine oil. was forced to retire. Was briefly up to 2nd while everyone else pitted. As I was driving alone I decided to pit after everyone else to avoid the chaos
