Just back from FOS . Had a good look at the 2 yellow cars on display and the white car held in reserve in the campsite . Both looked great .
918 buckets have grown on me massively , much deeper than I remembered .
1st time I've heard one ran in anger and sounded great to my ears . No quieter than the GT3 RS that followed it up the hill .
Discussed bucket situation and it is simply the supplier not keeping up . They expect the supply situation to be resolved hopefully before October .
Folding buckets haven't been type approved with cage which is why clubsport cannot be spec'ed with them . Problem is how the air bags would be impacted due to cage .
I've got videos of the GT3RS, Spyder and GT4 from the start line, if I can figure out how I will post them here. They sounded very similar, if anything the GT3RS was the quietest of the 3.
However, the Singer was in a different league for sound and general presence. Chatted with Marino Franchitti before he did his run in the car which he really likes apart from the woven leather interior. We agreed that tartan cloth would have been much nicer.

Where did you find the results?
on test day, as we know most cars show boat, and times are set buy people after times, it's meaning less last year the 918 did a electric only time and when Ferrari turn up none of the big Super cars go for times.
Good wood is about seeing people like this and cars like the Fxx K.
I see PH has now posted the Super car times, but as I said pointless, the LFA did look like and sound like he was on it though.
Overall times, Michelin Supercar Shootout
1. Anthony Reid, Noble M600 - 51.33
2. Chris Ward, Lexus LFA - 52.11
3. Matt Becker, Aston Martin GT12 - 55.06
4. Henry Catchpole, Porsche Cayman GT4 - 56.86
5. Andy Meyrick, Bentley GT3-R - 56.91

Must do better. As PEC lead instructor you would think he would be able to give it some beans.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qo-dCfqQG2Y&fe...
