Watched this last night. Very impressive driving.

Distinctive sound which I'm sure we all recognise too!

Have you ever lost it unexpectedly?
 
Epic mate, are you going to Kimbolton sunday, would love to have a chat about your N'ring experiences/ car set up etc? :race: :race: <<< very well driven, first video was a favourite of mine also
 
Great video. I particularly like the quick and small corrections you make to keep the car on track and pointing in the right direction.

How do you mount your GoPro? Do you have a picture?
 
Great driving Dave loving the left foot braking :race:
Guessing your happy with the set-up now or other things in the pipe line??? ;)
 
Thanks everyone, was a right laugh. Went for a mate's stag doo and we ended up staying for an additional week at the end haha.

Thanks v much for the kind comments

Brembo - Yes, it can catch you out, especially when conditions are slightly damp or when the tires are cold. Plus if you carry too much speed in to the corner the only way you can scrub it off is with letting the back end slide a bit because as we all know jumping on the brakes would be a bad idea lol. Sometimes cadence braking can help but you have to be really gentle. This vid is a good example, although I was purposely trying to get it out here messing about but you get the idea of how it can be brought back as long as you don't let it go too far

Matt.v10 - No I can't make Kimbolton as I am on another stag doo, I would defo like to get down to the next one if poss tho, fingers crossed :approve:

GlowRed- I mount it on the roll cage, I don't think I have a picture handy but if you want inbox me and i'll take a pic for you no worries

Phil - Sorry I haven't really been in touch, in the throws of buying a house so all of my time is on other things atm [smilie=icon_cry.gif] Setup wise I need new rear tyres as mine are goosed, ran slightly different front camber settings this time, but it just made locking up the fronts up easier under heavy braking so I would like to have a little play around but getting the time is a nightmare :evil: Other than that I'm happy with the car, it constantly surprises some of the bigger boys round the corners. Could keep chasing setup but for the very small time I might gain there's no point mate, prefer it lively lol. The exhaust was spot on, I still need to do the write up of it, just sent it away for polishing again, then I will refit and get it done.

Plus, I am doing a bit of a compilation vid of the best bits of all the laps, this one was a bit boring with no traffic, the others were a right laugh though :race: Keep an eye out for when it goes on, then you can laugh at my not so good driving moments lol
 
Just lookin after the engine Ali, the hp and torque drop off on my dyno map much later on in the revs so no need to stress it.

The promised compilation vid of my fav bits from this year's trip, with a bit more traffic :race:

That was brilliant....what do you use to clean the passenger seat?!
You trust the other drivers a lot more than I would....and what's with all the Porsche guys, out for a Sunday drive?

Great stuff.
