Slow Steve - far too slow. very low 2:56 with traffic and carrying 115kg of ballast (passenger, seat, mounts and harnesses) on utterly knackered second hand slicks. Wrong front bumper and so splitter too if that makes a difference. Theoretical best using 5 sectors was 2:50.5 which shows that

My best video'd lap is a 2.56 as well, on worn Cups with a shagged gearbox and a passenger :thumbs: It's the second lap in this vid: http://vimeo.com/2180418

What weight do you reckon the car is now Nathan? I ask because my car stripped out was 1374kg without about 1/2 tank of fuel, but in the video it was just below full, so allowing about an extra 0.76k x 30 litres = 22kg, plus driver & pax = 145kg, so total weight of the car in the vid I estimate to be about 1541kg.

some great pic there, Nathan your car looks really flat in the corners and the colour scheme suits it, I couldnt seem to get my lap timer working!!! but last night on the ferry I checked a few laps on the video - did a low 2.52 with 2 traffic hold ups in the lap. I will give it check tonight and see if I can see any clear laps, Shimmy was going well for a big lad hopefully put some vid up in the next couple of days if wheelsburg can get his finger out :hahaha:

Nice one Curly - and well done Shimmy as well, these are good times (well better than mine :hahaha

What tyres are you running Curly? I'm assuming Shimmy was on Cups? :beer:

Whoever has the red wheels owes me royalties... not that I have a red set on anymore.

:blalalala:

[_Nathan_]

1393kg with 15L of fuel (about 10kg lighter than it was before).

With a full tank + 202kg of people so around 1620 - 1625kg? Gearbox light on too, seemed ok though. Traffic and mistakes were the issues.

ETA: looking at the DL1 data it was a 2:54.9

was on baldies steve but i was running a tankfull of 2star you missed a good un steve

[shimmy]

Now now Curly I distinctly remember paying 30 Euro for your 98 RON fuel and you buying a syringe to fill up every two laps!

I even believe you have a carbon fibre left leg to save weight!
