I'll strip out a couple of wet/dry laps and put 'em up later.

It was a LOT quicker when it had dried up on the last couple of sessions, Rhys.  I was coming through Avon Rise at around 110mph.

 :cool:  You were still hitting 100mph through there when you took me out  :shocked:

Can't help myself.

Waiting on Youtube to process 12 minutes of the better laps at the moment.  Much more blithering will be included.  :grin:

Yes, she really would like me on the ragged edge.  :grin:

I'd be concerned, but she's sitting in the passenger seat and the track goes clockwise!

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

Not that I'm aware of.  A Golf5 with a stripped interior and cage *should* damned quick!

"Where the f*ck are you going?, sort your lines out",

and

"Someone's being a girl in the corners".

Commentary Murray Walker would be proud of.

I'm with Mrs Hell, 3rd gear and you can go faster :grin:

Watching this makes me miss my ABF even more :cry:

My mk2 is "only" fwd and consistently goes light over the back wheels even when not lifting off in a fast bend.
 Reckon I have to do some tweaking to my setup, keeps you awake though...

Nice video  :cool:.
