Not meant to time on track days....but I believe a passenger did - 2 min 26 secs I was told was the best when he was in the car.

Having said that, I go harder when not responsible for anyone else but didn't time when alone - despite the car having a stopwatch function! I do know a car with very similar spec to mine (but a better driver!) has a 2.19 recorded!!

Cheers

Ouch.... I managed a lowly 2:43 with a 2:42 optium. I need more go!

An ever so slight difference in power might be the difference...

160mph+ on Hanger Straight helps!

I have some video which I'll probably get on You Tube by the weekend. i'll post a link to it on this thread

Super quick, the GTR, you went past me through the Loop and planted "11's" down as you accelerated off.....awesome. Loved seeing the classics out there mixing it up aswell, the 911 and the Alfa cocking its front wheels out of the corners.

Heres mine. 20 minutes session in my E46 M3 on stock suspension and road tyres playing with my mates Race spec Lotus Exige on semis. Gets interesting around 9 minutes when I let him past on the straight to give chase again

This was by far one of my favourite track days ever. Fantastic track, fantastic weather, brilliant all round really!

What did your passenger say when I passed you? I couldn't catch it on my laptop - heard the word embarrassing??

BTW you seemed to go well - is the MX5 engine standard?

Cars upped to 188 NA bhp from 155-160 stock, running coilovers, XP8 pads and NS2RS. It goes okay providing you can keep up the momentum. They way your car just leaps into the next county when you touch the loud pedal I miss so badly. I used to have a 135i bmw, 420bhp and 530 ftlb that could keep up with a stock GTR, yours must be insane I miss that a lot.

The passenger I quote "Thats embarrassing if you drive a Nissan" lol as we both expected you to destroy the corner and be at the next before Id even got to the apex, but didn't gap me much. We could both see you were holding back from the arse of the caterfield in front, however most on that day would have just launched it round the outside, you were one of the few on the day that left a little room.
