Keevil Trackday

[Damo M]

Did anyone manage to clock any times at Keevil (obviously only by counting in their head of course)?

[Alf Essex]

No sorry, although I know I was not the fastest Tuscan on the day!

SOoo fast - time went backward me thinks.........

[MikeE]

I've got a couple of laps recorded on a digi cam so might be able to get a time of that, having said that I'm not sure it will be that representative as I spent most of my time being held up by Tuscans

[Damo M]

would be interesting to see!!

Damo,

I've looked at it and I reckon about 1:35 for a clear lap.

I've got a good video of me overtaking the Noble but don't have anywhere to host it, anyone offering?

This is what my brother recorded me doing on consecutive laps.

1.22.1
1.21.7
1.21.6
1.25.3 (slight off!)

They were right at the end of the day and the track was very clear.

[MikeE]

Ah well, if you saw the video I based that on you'd know why I had to guestimate the time.

The video starts at the chicane before the top corner (near the pits), I close up behind the Nobel and follow him around, pass him down the straight, go through the left hand 'funnel' corner at 85mph, full throttle around the sweeping right, trail brake into the bottom corner at 120mph, hit the apex and squeeze the throttle only to do a 180 spin on the way out, the video then shows me sitting there in a cload of tyre smoke and you see the Noble coming past me

So I had to add a guestimate for the remaining 3rd of the lap

cheers,
Mike.

sounds like an action-packed lap!!

Thing is they obviously don't like you timing but at the end of the day anyone can look at a watch or count in their head! and the stop watches on Nokia phones these days............!
