Heel & toe

[Bugs M400]

All,
Came across this while trying to entertain myself at the weekend - 400 in for its 18k service ;-(
Other than the fact it's an awesome piece of driving, there's not a crash helemt in sight, and he's wearing white socks & slips ons!
Totally un Noble related, but I thought some of you like minded folk would appreciate it.
Cheers,
D.

Oh, it's a standard avi file, so should play in any of the normal players. I'm using Windows Media Player 9.

Right clicked and saved as worked. Nice bit of footwork

i'm pretty amazed how he just gave it death from the onset and never let off once !!

probably never driven it before !!

why was he tapping the accelerator on those tight bends

Oooh I had an NSX with those white wheels too. I think if you read Ayrton Senna's Principles of Race Driving there is a bit about his tapping of the accelerator or if not it's in one of the Senna books. He did it particularly in the wet. I think John Watson commented on how it enabled him to be on the throttle far sooner than other drivers.

Racing God!!

Shoes and socks remind me of Stefan Roser another guy who was awesome in a car around a track. Fazination!

Apparently something he started doing in his karting days to keep it on cam. I've tried it in hire carts and it doesn't work for me
