I've done this one too Dixon, will have a look at my vids in a sec and tell you if they're not too embarrassingly slow

Mark might have some lap times for you as well from the same day.



Edt: First quick look I measured a 1.58 lap, will look later if there are any faster ones.

I got a couple of clear laps under 1:50. Not race pace and tyres totally shot (instructor even commented!) but Dixon would still be quicker car for car even if I was flat out, and that's a very quick time for a car on AD08 and brake mods.

Thanks Mark. When you get a chance to go back there for some proper testing, let me know.

Thanks for posting the vid, nice driving. The murderer gloves are worth at least a second I think!


Looks like she is going well! Did you change your final drive? What springs are you on now? Is that the Ti single exhaust ?

Final drive went back to OEM for silverstone, 4.4 was too short for this track. Spring is on 15KG front and 16KG Rear, feel so much better with stiffer front now.

Ti exhaust still being made.... just been too busy recently, didn't really have time to make an exhaust for myself.

Good vid! Very smooth as usual

I haven't done the GP but I found the 4.4 was perfect for the National.

Nice!

The car sounds like it revs up really fast!

Could the dampers take 16kg on the front?
