Just lifted these three of the video tonight,

 

First is a cerbra that let go after John and I poked it with a stick round the twisties... he's 90 degrees onto us there :), Perhaps we should suggest some opposite lock? lol

 

Second is a shot chasing the boys up the runway,

 

Third is a shot of Michel Lane... run forest run!! You can hear him go through the gears on the vid, were were level in 4th, then he snapped his gearstick off trying to get into 5th... doh!!!!

it's processing now bud... although I looked through it and on the session I was chasing you, think it was the second session on the sun? I didn't have the camera running! It was the same section in your vid where you were chasing me up the straight and we swapped places at the end...

 

:(

There is also a clip showing a silver supra having a tank slapping moment too, not sure who it is though ;)

 

My mate said he looked behind him up the runway and there was a tank slapper of a black supra out of shape at the bottom corner. I've done it before on road tyres, on the same corner last year, but with slicks it felt like I was inside a hamster ball, a la "darla" in flying nemo!

 

After 3 shakes I opted for the middle pedal option :)

Thats me out in front on the middle pic taking a more unusual route out of that corner (i.e. veering off to the right then hoping it diesn't run into the loose stuff at the edge of the runway!). Didn't stay in front for long:rolleyes: Bloody singles:d

 

Is that a Marham inflicted chip in your windscreen Mike?

Yes, wind up the old dustbin lid turbo down that straight!

 

The chips was there when I bought the car. As it sits behind the rear view I never see it, so have never fixed it! Always gets through the mot, probably because they only look for it from inside the car too :).. I did ok for chip damage, virtually none..

 

Really interesting driving against you round the twisties, you will see it on the vid. You'll gain a car or car and a half out of the tighter 2nd gear corners as you are on power so much more quickly than I. It has to be a 3rd gear corner before we even up.

 

When Michel ripped his gearlever off we were exiting the last corner before the pit straight; I stayed in 3rd, carried a little more speed through the corner.. by the top of 4th I was ahead because even though he had a fraction more power he had to start in 2nd with more lag and 3 changes to make.... the last one being terminal :)

 

If it were not for the long straight there would be no difference between you and the bigger singles, but I can see why Terry built mine with a 35r.. it was a perfect track tubby.
