i think someone needs to invest in a lsd lol, a lot more controlled than the one of the scottish neds. Just need to get mine on track again.

lol, you think?

Its on the shopping list for the new shell mate. Theres more evidence for how good an LSD is when we get round the back of the circuit through bobbies. The amount of ground Dar makes over me is stupendous!

I noticed dar was hammering you on the corners. I really need to get out on track with guys :thumb:

whats yours handle like Phil with all that power through corners? The LSD made a load of difference?

Philsutton

mine handles like a dream, i did fairly well at totb on the handling considering its a lard **** big block with 95% of its weight in front the front wheels. IMO it handles better than my nova did.

Ive never had any smoky exits like BT, but an lsd will make a massive difference to cornering from my experience.

Lee

I dont normally either to be honest, but she was on cold tyres (hense why Dar had trouble stopping and I had trouble exiting) you can see the **** step out on the entry to the esses, but it actually steps out on the exit as well which lifted a lot of weight off the inside wheel.

Worth it though just to make the grannys behind cough a bit lol

an maybe so, but my party trick is smoking the wheels in 4th lol

Shame there isnt any incar footage from that Noble. Be good to see the Novas coming by.

Dar

I would love to see that footage:D
I don't think he was running a camera though. Time to look on the Noble forums just in case.

Nice vid's :)
Shame about the red Nova :(

Lee

Red Nova was Lee He****y's, hes already half way through rebuilding it! top bloke!!

It is a shame theres no footage of us passing the Noble, cos I was tucked into dars slipstream coming up to Avon rise, and he managed to slide through pretty easily. Unfortunately some dude in a Nova Sport didnt see me and shut the door so i ended up passing him and the noble at 130MPH with two wheels on the grass! A bit hairy!!

It happens now and again, unfortunately when your going that speed on that section of the circuit, throwing out the anchor isnt the safest option, especially when your surrounded by cars. Luckily, i had spoken to the guy in the Sport before the session and i could trust that he knew what he was doing, and if anything had gone tits up, all that would have happened is a few pirouetts on the infield lol. If there were any more cars about i would have backed off way before then.
