This was my fastest lap on Saturday.  2mins10secs, about a second faster than I've been before.  Still learning heaps about this fantastic circuit so there's lots of seconds out there still to find.  I followed Frank through siberia on this lap and omg did I pucker - it doesn't look near as frightening in the video.

You are at minus 3 in the Top Gear Alfa challenge, wait for the concourse.

Here are the results for the day.

Some interesting observations:

Some got 30 or more laps in, which is at least 1 hr of track time, not bad value for money.

Frank Musco broke 2:00min
John Floyd is still close to breaking 2:00min

The wives were (MUCH) faster than the husbands

Cheers
Neil

Think how fast Frank will be when he uses fifth gear and lifts the rev limiter to seven thousand revs. Nice work.

Would anyone have photos of a red car that didn't run at Phillip Island (if you know what I mean)? Wink
Hint - though being red, it didn't crash.  Obviously because it wasn't there. Roll Eyes
If you do, could you please let me know via email: alfagtv100@gmail.com
