Default Finally got some vids on youtube!

So this is the best I managed this year. Still some traffic issues (bikes!) but otherwise not too bad a run. 9:10 BTG.



Shame I didn't get to do more laps this year (only 3) but with a potential dodgy head gasket it wasn't worth doing more and not getting the car home

edit/ and yes, I know i need a GoPro to take better footage, was recording in lower-resolution as last year Harry's Laptimer screwed up all my HD laps

You certainly had great pace, and good lines when I saw the blue bluurr fly past me

Really good stuff Steve, it looks quite composed, you sweep through some of the twisty sections nicely, must have been the softer damper setting?

I think the HG probably is on the way out as i got bubbling in the expansion tank, even after engine switched off (for a good few minutes). Not the end of the world though, its only an old WRX engine
Thanks for lending me the rad cap btw, will give it back when i next see you

3rd lap of the weekend. Chased a Merc A45 for the whole lap, he had more power but less brakes/grip in the bends but i couldn't get past. Few problems on track with accidents too, and then I had to back off after the Karussell after seeing the water temp was high.

Yeah. But it doesn't matter what I do, when a cars got 70-80bhp more than me and doesn't want to move over, there's bugger all i can do about it (without making a risky outbraking move anyway!)
