GTR looked and sounded great Christian. Must resist buying another one! Glad you had a good day and the time with malc was useful.

Malc put this up last night, of a couple of my quickest laps - a world first, I've never posted footage of my laps before...

Impressed with his camera gear and datalogging overlay stuff, V Cool

Really nice and smooth mate, looks like she's handling well and showing some good pace on the straights (was that 133mph?)

I think the 'carbon look' aero catches may have cost you a few tenths there though

Thanks Eddy, great to see you and the GTiR there too. Although I drove so much more than usual, and then looked at the logs that I didn't see you again.

I saw safety James breifly too at sign in but don't think he recognised me

I was just sat here with the intention of coming up with a witty sarcastic comeback to the above (something along the lines of 'the additional weight of blue paint to cover up your bad taste in carbon look tat etc') but got distracted by the 'Rant On/Rant Off' smiley'...........and it completely blew my mind.....kinda' like

Out of interest chief have you ever corner weighted your car or determined what it's current all up weight is?

Cheers Ben.

Pez, no I haven't mate, and i've got no idea what it would weight. Obv I've stripped stuff out like interior, air con etc, but then I've put a cage in. Also still running full glass etc so i don't reckon it's that light

You've probably already considered this but just in case.

Re- Driving wobbly.
We still get this when driving on the road after being on track and thats on 205s and what we found was that it is caused (in our case),by bobbling on the tyres from track driving. It stops once the tyres clean up.
