    no worries, as you see im not sure either. In the brands trackday vid the passenger (pink hat) shows how brutal that car is, thrown around a plenty.

    The video doesnt really give you an idea of what it is like all i can say is i have had to wear lower back support as it feels like you have been for a work out after driving and 15mins is long enough to be driving in one go

    the rules are a bit odd with the 50% capacity multiplier for all sorts of things...

    and also the fact that you were whalloping most other things.

    why did you start at the back? cos it looked like you could have won the race outright with a better grid slot

    I had a problem with my wets hitting my calipers so couldnt do a time in qually,i have no chance of winning overall the 306 that passes me has 450 hp there is a wrc escort a dimma kitted 205 using a touring car engine reputedly 270bhp all very quick cars and then some very quick cossies aswell ,i think everything sort of went my way in that race ,unfortunatly in the 2nd race where i started 4th i got a good start was tight behind the 306 going into paddock where he braked very early locked up ,i then locked up trying to avoid him and ended up in the gravel so that was race 2 over .Apparently he did the same thing in the first race and took the wrc escort out but i was un sighted as i started at the back in the video ,you can see the dust go up that was the incident ,he got called to see the clerk of the course but no action was taken .He had a new brake setup that he was not used to

    Impressive driving and car. I should study the video to get a better idea on lines for corners etc for track days. You seem to whizz through them.
