Frst 20 finishers between low 57. something and a minute, the stragglers (like me) one minute point something, under 1.01.

Difficult to compare directly with track day times tho as (usually :) ) on track days you don't have other drivers trying to push you off line or taking a dive up the inside if you take a wide line into a corner like shaws. Should still give a idea tho. So how did the times compare to the 325?

Cheers
Brian

Hiya Brian,

My fastest lap of the day (well, whilst I had the camcorder in the car) was 1:00:02

I only had the camera in for 5 sessions, here are my lap times, the orange is the best lap of the day (1:00), the yellows are 1:01s and the greens are 1:02s

That wasn't a PBMW car. Best on the day was 57.1s

Remember, we're on sticky tyres, which is worth a few seconds a lap over road tyres.

What circuit do you use there? I race bikes and we use the bus stop and edwina's. My best is a 54 sec lap on a 600.

Although it all changed for this year for bikes. (chicane at gerrards i think)
I'm dropping the hammer!!
