Going well Si.

Are you still on the sticky tyres? Lasting well?

Oulton looks good, I will use these vids for my race in June. Doesn't like like it would be fun in the wet though!

Back on the RE050as for now, sticky tyres in the garage awaiting summer.

The first vid is post instruction - note the later turn-in points especially at Old Hall, Cascades and Island, you make better use of the camber that way.

Watch out for the bump on the exit at Druids(you can hear it in the engine note - lethal in the wet I expect.

This video demonstrates that bumpy exit at Druids, along with why one should not try and show off to female passengers, and don't start hand gesturing mid exit!!!
I love the line "This guy's going so slowly, I don't know why he's here!".
Best bit is when that 'pointless' guy then tootles past at 00:42

Not his car either!

You can see him nudge a tiny bit of steering input just before it goes (or it's the camber pulling the front wheels)

Should have been able to keep the car straight when it was going backwards too?
