My buddy working behind me noticed that I was moving around in the chair - he thought that I was having some kind of stomach pain - seems I was inadvertently 'leaning' into the corners. Must have looked like a right plum.

Absolutely fantastic racing.

Wow, that's great. It really shows you how narrow the track is and how tricky to pass it is doesn't it?

Whoever was in the Porsche was a very good driver. The Viper clearly had the grunt, but was outbraked in every corner.

I have seen it many times before but it will never ever get boring. Amazing stuff, especially when they weave through the slower traffic. There was a debate on a recent thread on which car was faster. Have a search

I was surprised the porsche had the grunt to stick with the Viper on the straight.

Its a shame there was no rear cam as I am sure the slip stream would have quite easily dragged the Porsche along.

It seemed to me that the Viper had more grip and was the quicker car but a mix of the traffic and the fact that the Viper had to tippy toe out of some of the smaller corners allowed the Porsche to keep in front.

Expected the viper to lose him on the main drag, but the gt3 was still there, viper was using slipstream i don't think it had much more grunt tbh.

Amazing footage, and not just for the BMW driver using their indicator at 7:18 smile

That Porsche driver really didn't want to be passed!
