A flying lap of the 'Ring

[MrBTG]

Not the fastest Caterham lap around here, but not a bad one considering the 'low' power-to-weight of the CSR175...



You'll have to forgive the dicky speedo needle, I accidentally reset the calibration of it in the video vbox setup. The car's on Avon CR500s, as you can tell from the consistant +1G cornering!

Hi MrBTG, very nice pic and video, I've seen it already on the German 7 Forum.
Seems you live near by the ring? I'm near by Cologne.

cheers Volker

[MrBTG]

Yep, Adenau.

Whats with the flashing brake lights on the Gt ?

They look to be alternating from side to side ?

Awesome. Shows real bravery doing a lap time like that in a Caterham

I would not dare do that in my Westfield that is for sure.

It's just a strobing effect caused by the LED rear lights on the GT3!

Thanks for sharing the video Dale, really enjoyed watching that. As you rightly say, knowledge of the course makes a huge difference!

Another well built car.......

Dale, I can get more air than that over PF1 2 up in my battered SLR!

Hope you are keeping well mate!?

PS Dario's 7.36 BTG lap on your site has some interesting moments in it!

Great circuit knowledge and driving bTW.

Hi Fergus!

I guess there's a bit of droop in the CSR, cos I'm flat out, no lift.

Darius's lap in the CSR is awesome, would love a go in that.

Darius was also the pilot in the GD Lola replica lap here too
