Gripping on the ragged edge stuff, Tim and Dean. Race two with the (no doubt terrified) backmarkers is unmissable.

Some great racing from you and Dean just gutted i could not get away with you and of tried tagging on behind, very interesting seeing the difference between the two cars the tuscan definitely spinning up through the gears quicker with the box and flat shift especially out of Graham Hill bend but the sag definitely looked more planted and less of a handful through the quick stuff. I was amazed how easy it was for you to downshift two gears going into clearways without it unsettling the car to much!
Once you where both up to speed the cars looked very evenly matched speed wise and it was a great battle!
Some very brave stuff when lapping as well with neither of you wanting to give a quarter clap
I'll try and get mine up later!

Great racing with two drivers who know the circuit and know how to drive these cars.
Interesting to compare the Sagaris (T5, Aero and wide rubber) V Tuscan (sequential, standard rims and no aero).
Dean stays planted to the end in the Sagaris, Tim's Tuscan starts to dance near the end of race two in classic Tuscan style.
The Sagaris probably not getting the best from it's aero on the Indy circuit, but by the same rule the Tuscan developes an exhaust blow around 12 and half minutes into race two, so maybe dropping a few HP.
All good stuff, and it looked like everyone had a great weekend despite the ups/downs and mechanical trauma's.
Forgot just how viciously lovely the AJP8 sounds at full race chat smokin.

I must say having driven The sag at oulton when fred had it that it is so much more planted than a tuscan, and thats clear from the video. I think alot of that is down to the better cage making the whole chassis stiffer. The sequential in the tuscan makes eveything a lot less frantic.. on the gear changes, as said knocking it down 2 on the way in to druids and clearways was epic.

glad your all enjoying the footage, I still have to heel and toe on the way down to match the revs and do get it wrong a couple of times as you can see when the back steps out but generally the gearbox is epic!! its just there for reliability really it doesn't give any advantage laughwinksmokin

Great on the edge driving, glad I wasn't in one of those slower cars as those two missiles came past laugh Tim this short vid will give you a good comparison to your gear box. Mine running fully auto blip on the down shift.

Gopro footage from mine in race one, only 13 mins long im afraid as the go pro cuts out when the cockpit temp gets too high.

Great to see you posting and got to say the S6 sounds fantastic & i love the way it revs up, you can really see the benefits & speed from all the development you guys have put into the car!
Like Tim's video its very interesting seeing the difference the Sequential box makes to the downshift into Clearways and Druids!
With regard to the Go pro i thought they where pretty much bullet proof, did you have the fully enclosed cover on?

That's a phenomenal race you ran there Jason, putting pressure on everybody and picking them off one by one. Well done.
