cool! GO PRO in HD is the shit!!!!!

the track just looks wierd or someting? the guy in the Bmw was IMO a bit to close for comfort coming the other way? thats the only dangerous point about it! but other than that looks so sweet! nice and wide and big!

to be fair i looked at the video and thought there was two different layouts that you took depending on lap1 or lap 2, but thats would just be silly :rolleyes:

we had tape there but with the wind and lads hitting the cones
ya would spend more time fixing it than anything so didnt bother
with it once ya done it once ya were grand:D

right so thats the last few posted up there now.

@ will didn't have the toyos on was using the yokohama parada spec 2s and even the slightest bit of wet they didn't work at all........
you can see in the videos at some points where i lost all front end grip, was getting caught on something with the steering. think it was going over center and need a fair auld pull to unstick it, then try to get back into some sort of shape, this all happens in an instance. something i need to look into more and get corrected.

cheers for the comments lads.
