In the 400SE with R888s I managed under 60, but over 59. My friend and co-owner 57 give or take.

Timed from videos.

Lol - it would feel so weird to cycle round there... Every corner I'd be getting worried about seeing the black flag for drifting or making too much tyre noise!

59 seconds, two-up in my 2010 Renaultsport Clio 200 with standard Continental road tyres, timed using my AEE track-day camera. Most difficult corner to get right for me is McLarens the one going into clearways, I never manage the same line twice.

55.2 in my E46 M3 with a passenger. Plenty of room for improvement!

Impressed with that... Always wondered what my e46 would do, probably a lot slower than that!

I'm guessing that's not a standard car??

(My best was 57 seconds and I had upgraded suspension, brakes and track tyres!)

Managed a best of 1.04.11 today in my 550 Boxster on part-worn Pirellis on a mildly moist track. Great fun!

Would be interested to know what tyres and mods have been done to the vx220t.. I nearly bought one a few years ago but couldn't fit my oversized baulk inside with a helmet frown
Great cars!

aprox 300 hp on kumho v70s and nitron race shocks,we did a 53 on a test day befor a time attack event a few months ago,i only managed it once on an empty track,we struggled to get below 55 for the rest of the event.
im 6'3 and the wrong side of 17st and fit fine with the htop on so you must be a big un!!

Nice specsmile guessing standard engine just uprated boost etc to get that power?

Heard a lot of good things about the kuhmo tyres nitron susp also..

I found my head was touching the roof with a helmet - felt a bit claustrophobic!

I'm going to get some s'hand ast race susp for mine and hope it may make it slightly quicker. Fingers crossed it'll make it nicer on the road at least..

Any vids if your laps?? smile
