andylaurence 0 Posted October 13, 2007 Report Share Posted October 13, 2007 think we are goin to have some great vids from this one too ..... just watch for my top comin off ......I have two camcorders, and a selection of mounts for the car. I'll be welding up a mount for getting video of the occupants, and I'll try to get something rigged up that's not obvious for a bumper cam. I'm also thinking about one of those GPS data loggers, but that depends on whether I can find some software to overlay a rev counter, speedo, G-force meter or whatever from the data. :-d Cheers,Andy Link to post Share on other sites

The lap was about 10:12, which I thought was pretty good going for a 1600cc diesel estate. I reckon I could get the car under 10 minutes, but I reckon a good 'Ring driver would get about 30 seconds quicker than that. As for the BMW, it should be capable of a similar sort of time, but I doubt I'll get below 10 minutes. It's a bitch to drive on the limit, and I'd rather come back with the car (and my wallet) intact than try for a quick lap. I realised last night that the BMW is fast in a straight line, but it's so nervous that I think it's no quicker than the Focus poin to point.Cheers,Andy Link to post Share on other sites
