12:30 (WR session)

2:45

Got terrible interference, usually the camera is too quiet but now it's too loud and the mic can't cope, will have to sort it. Just turn the sound down and you can hear the car and tyre screeching just about.

The 2:45 session was less enjoyable and had too much traffic and a few dangerous manouevres for my liking.

Like the camera positioning I had a cam on my helmet in a karting session out in Singapore... 2nd vid is better but it shut off after a big crash

Good use of mirrors etc - only comment I'd make on your driving is your HANDS. Stop shuffling them about. Hold the wheel at 3 / 9 and leave them there for all but the tightest hairpins

Yeah well usually my videos are so quiet you can barely hear anything, and that's on LO with the waterproof seal in. So this time I took the seal out and put it onto HI which in theory should be perfect for in the car. But it's got that interference kinda noise? No windows open so it's not wind noise! It's like it vibrates in the case ever so slightly. I shall have to try it out when it's not 'on the day' as I'm always left wondering if my videos going to come out ok!

Cheers, I love the camera position you don't really see many people do it, and as you say you can see exactly where I'm looking Nice spin out lol

I always get comments about my hand positioning, but it's what I'm comfortable with, when I tried to do it properly I was thinking so much about my hand position I was making sloppy mistakes on corners lol. Did you see my little understeer moment at Quarry near the end of the 2nd vid, tyres really didn't want to grip

That 206 was having you on the twisties, Lucky you have double the power to take it on the straights


I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

Exactly It did handle well tbf.

I just got my coilies. I won't run 888's as they're too expensive but I'll have tyres with more tread next time

You run 18's don't you? £800 for a set of tyres that last maybe 3-4 trackdays

What calipers do they run, single or 2 pots? When I realised I only had single pots I was wondering how they think that's good enough for a 250bhp car but they cope very well with decent pads in, I think 4 pots would be overkill on mine, plus there's the fact I can't stomach the £1400 they want lol
