LOL yeah i know its sh*t... I was going to make a proper exhaust video, then realised I have no way to hold the cam and rev it at the same time, and the fact that I was in the garage.

Thanks for the drive last night Chris. Car feels very tight, suspension is nice for the road, and overall you have a very good platform to work from :)

Still so much room for improvement, this was that quickest lap, pretty messy so I'm hoping to get into 1:18s next time I head out.

If anyone has some tips or see anything I'm doing that's wrong please please please let me know! I wanna go faster! I think the main thing is I need to work harder to hit apexes on the fishhook and turn 2, and maybe turn in later on turn 3, going up the hill.

pretty clean lap there.

im flat out through the kink and prolly 4-5 past there is a fresh black strip there, as soon as i hit that the brakes are on, as for coming in to the fishhook, the right hand sweeper before it, im foot to the floor hugging the apex there. And the right hander before the short straight im flat out through that also
