Get pictures up lads
Second go on track/brief rally
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dnBZ9ggQ...e=youtu.be
8:42 - Black civic driver being a bellend, had to change my lines to avoid hitting him after that lost Rowell
10:07 - "thought I'd lost a pad" just before then when I tried braking it pulled sharp to the right first thing that went through my mind "oh f*ck one of those many noises must have been a pad coming off" oh well better keep going
10:20 - Coming into the esses and realising oh have like no brakes, so decided to just off road it rather than loose control in a corner(type r), coming off the grass I was pushing the brakes as much as I could but still rolling forward on the tarmac. Video dies just after but managed to limp it back off the track where the brakes had cooled enough to let me stop

Here's my contribution guys.

Car went well and looks like I got a few 1:27 lap times, and that's still with my "Quarry complex" so taking it relatively easy on the approach. Also noticed I'm not using the brakes nearly as well as I could be.
Not especially interesting so I must admit to not having watched it all the way through!

Had a quick watch - looks great man, looks like you had a few clear laps at least!!!
See what you mean about your entrance to Quarry - bugger of a corner

Cheers Ruan. I caught myself stacking it in my old GTI6 on video, and looking at both, im much slower but safer. Was going to do the racing school experience day as apparently it's good
Definitely needs more power though!

It's a wierd one, it definitely seems like the chassis is capable of more, you're using the engine so much, you're barely needing to scrub off speed, but you've been on the power for quite a while!
Shotgun for next time you're at Combe, yeh?!
