Another top trackday out sharing driving with Maddog in my VVC shed. The man can drive a bit. Lapped Silverstone in 2:20 odd - standard S2 111s. Rather humbling, but to bring him down to size, a few outtakes for your amusement. (Alex McKay must have bricked himself in the pax seat on Copse corner - I would have):
I see that he and I learned at the same school.
Andrew Your spin at becketts still makes me chuckle, I nearly cracked a rib at the time from laughing so much.
seems it is impossible to take Copse at 100mph in your car
Great video.
The armco didn’t look too far away on that last spin
Tim.
It’s actually quite deceptive - it really didn’t come into play with the direction of travel. I was so obsessed with not lifting, I half drove off the track!
There’s tarmac on the outside of Copse, so it must be part of the track right?
A great day on Thursday. Thanks to Maddog for the pax laps and Shangani for trusting us in his car.
WHHHAAAAAATTT?
You mean that was done in my car? You guys took it without supervision? I’ll be having a word then.

Anytime, hope you enjoyed it as much as I did
cool vidz shangani
while i was looking, i saw this: > Clicky Big Big Off >
scary stuff…
Camp corner at Castle Combe strikes again! That really is a dodgy place to sit…
Having said that, I really love Combe for it’s charm and backwardness! It’s just not a good place to have an accident.
that porker moved more earth in one swoop than my mates JCB… and the old duffer taking pics was a bit too slow eh…
Finally got round to sorting out a video lap from Silverstone.
Very tidy driving - looked around 2:18 for the lap. Well quick! Well at least I know why you were monstering past. On that clip you blew past Hans Baumhardt on the long straight (Blue S2 111s) and he was lapping around 2:23 all day.
Note to self - check the piggy bank for progress on the engine upgrade fund. And driving upgrade fund - best I managed was a 2:25 in my laser blue S2 111s. Maddog was 3 seconds faster in my own car.
Only used the camera in one session but got a couple of laps that are a couple of seconds quicker. Used the lap in the video as it had quite few cars in it as I think it looks better than a quieter lap.
