Hypothetical 'ring time

[s3am]

Dear all,

In a moment of idleness I was considering what kind of time a 3R and a M400 would put in at the ring
- are we talking sub 8 minutes for the 3R??
I suddenly feel the need for statistics!

Also is anyone taking a Noble up to Beford for the 'howfast' competition at the Autodrome.

Pure, unadulerated speculation welcomed!

Sam

p.s. looking forward to Milbrook this weekend, I'll be in the Azure blue 3R, suppose I will see a few of you there.

Sam, what's on at Milbrook and where is it? Cheers, Martin.

Its a driver development day with Cadence that Owen (Obes) organised, I think about 12-15 Nobles are going, I dont know how many are from this forum though.

I never really knew much about it before, but it looks quite a place.

Martin, it was full the last I heard and cost £500/car.

Looking forward to it myself.

Hadn't realised that Millbrook had such a variety of circuits, and they really do look like the idylic fast, sweeping A-roads that we all love blasting along! They've even got white lines, roundabouts and bus stops, but no traffic coming the other way to worry about!

Roll on Sunday...

Rob, was thinking of a spectating trip...I've got to get the first 1000 miles and service done by about the 25th!. M.

Back on topic:

So what times do you reckon for a hard driven 3R and M400 round the 'green hell' then?

Sam

Take the GT3 RS time and you shouldn't be far out. The M400 is better in the twisties by a long way but the top end of the Porker would shine on the 'Ring.(IMHO)

So about 7.40ish? Someone want to lend their car to these boys www.track-challenge.com and set the definitive answer...?!
