PIR fun (archive)

great track day! although i was a bit over-enthusiastic on a couple of occasions. how late can i brake for a turn from 130mph? not THIS late (a 1.6M mpeg).

played camera car to D///Mill and RoyL - 11M mpeg here. great save in the chicane, Roy! we ended up with a direct comparison of kumho ecsta 712 (Roy's car) and victoracer V700 (Doug's coupe). the verdict? the 712 might be a good tire for the money, but a track tire it ain't...

also filmed a few friends through the chicane (5.6M file).

next bit of excitement is the arrival of the coupe, hopefully tomorrow :)
