Firstly apologies to Paul Gulliver for not posting the video you were probably hanging out for, (we had a really good go together for about 4 laps), in that apparently the camera turned off before that run, which was quite shattering as i was really looking forward to pin-pointing the moment i soiled myself as i dived up the inside on turn one there.

Instead this is from the last run i did for the day, my mate Jimmy in the beamer and i were having a bit of a scrap for s*#$'s and giggles, i got VERY sloppy at some points and was generally just being an idiot for my own amusement, and somewhere in the middle i also managed to post my quickest lap of the day! (a 2:18, which i was extremely pleased with Cheesy)

oh, and the next thing that is getting done is the BMW will be given a baffled sump- if you didn't see why on the day you will now. Enjoy.

Mat,

Another Martin Scorsese Godfather Production. You must of had a good last  couple of session's  as the seconds just peeled off.

Expecting a live feed to Channel 7 @ the next sprint.


Cheers

Loving the sideways action around MG Mat.  Great fun, and you brought it home without any bent panels unlike various other characters  Wink

Bump,

Mat your right about the Beemer. I was a couple of hundred metres behind your mate coming over the top of Lukey Heights. There was that much smoke down in MG corner i thought there must have been a new Pope.

Thanks Paul, channel seven have agreed to broadcast the footage for me during the olympics, seeing as no one will be able to tell the difference when there's that much pollution in the air.
i think the time i was finding was probably just learning the limits of the tires. its taking me quite a while to adapt to them, but as you said the times seem to be improving, so no complaints at all.
