G50Z walks it!! Field annihiliated.

[dandarez]

The second only invitation race for the Barwell G50Z in GT at Rockingham proved a complete annihilation for the rest of the field.

Joe Osborne commented:

"We always knew the start would be critical," he said. "My first three laps were real 'qualifying laps' to pull a good gap of about four or five seconds over Dan Brown's Mosler, and then I settled into a pace I could drive at consistently."

Bet they try and ban it now.

for those who don't think it's much of an achievement - look at the rest of the field! (and well done to Nigel Moore again).

And then compare the relative costs too...

Excellent result carving through field - just watched on Motors. That's the kind of track dominance we were hoping for with my new G33 17yrs ago!

Rather a different scale of operation now, good work by Lawrence to get it all together.

Does the G50 Zytek sound as amazing as the Le Mans Zytek engine. The pops and bangs on over run were like an artillery barrage
