Here's the fastest lap I could manage, a 2:19.

That's pretty cool, Paul! Looks like a fast, smooth track. Lotsa fun.

You don't have the gear yet, do you? I wouldn't worry about the lap times really until you do. Then they will drop like stones.

Did I hear a bit of "pucker factor" at the top of the hill in the bypass?

Are you running "R" compound tires? I heard a bit of tire wail. I was just wondering.

Keep the vids coming!!!

oh yeah that was pucker factor The top wasn't so bad, but when the car lands it scares the **** out of me However, turn 8, the very fast left hander, my grip on the steering wheel is just about crushing at that point!

Nope, no gears yet, still 4.10s, and no swaybars.

Tires are Toyo RA1s 205/50/15s, unshaved.. Which is probably why I'm squeeling a lot more than you'd expect. Spec tire for NASA PS1, although I'll be moving to shaved 225/50/15s on 7" rims soon.

I get a new vid up today
