I'd feel safer driving around with a lion on the passenger seat! I needed to change my trousers just watching the video.

Just out of interest when does the power become 'too much' to be fun anymore, I mean I love blast out but it's quite nice to know it's controllable. Having to wrestle with it that much every lap surely gets you thinking ''will I make it round to the next one''?

Perhaps your level of ability behind the wheel gives you the confidence to push that hard. After a full 360 spin in my Elise that caught me totally unawares, perhaps I've just lost the edge to drive like that.

That looked fun, the engine sounds incredible.

Would I be right in presuming it's a Honda?

that track layout looks a bit pony though, then again I'm not that keen on the full F1 'arena' lap anymore either. The old Bridge layout was much better to drive. I miss it, does anyone offer trackdays using that layout?
