indeed.
but i seem to remember months ago he was already creating a 'better' system. After the sour grapes with JP.
I just assumed (foolishly it would seem) that he would of been well on his way with the new system, seeing as the original Yozza had such a following.
But I dont come on here...
All i can advise is you just take your time, dont go all red mist and hell for leather. The place takes many many laps to remember, let alone learn. And keep an eye on your mirrors, some cars will be travelling far faster, and there is nothing worse than being held up by someone who isnt paying...
Cheers for the comments guys.
It is frustrating that my GoPro is so crap at picking up sound. Seems to have an annoying 'clicking' sound throughout recordings. I really should look into trying to fix it or use an external mic.
As regards to the driving, I try and stay as smooth as I can, as...
One of my laps from my May 2012 trip to the Nurburgring.
Feel free to comment, give tips and advise.... I am always open to learn how to go quicker there!

PS. If you dont like the music, mute it (my GoPro has poor mic pick up, hence the tunes)
BTG for timing all day long!
Thats how i calculate my times, by recording it, watching it back and working it out. Seems safer than the pressure of a stop watch in the car!! lol
cool, not bad at all!
Thats the problem with the busy days (which is most days) is all the traffic and hold ups!
But getting home in one peice is the most important thing!
echo other peoples comments really. good turnout.
I will try keep an eye on the forum for the next meet, as I can must a 200 and possibly 2 x R26's and 1 x R26.r
I think I was there the same weekend. I was in my Storm Grey 200. Was a great weekend!
Different to the Ring for sure, but better..... don't be silly. Once someone has some knowledge of the Ring (ie knows whats coming) its an awesome place to be.
Re: Chris's Black Gold Trophy to be
nice car indeed! And I like your BG trophy take on things!
Shame the yozza exhaust doesnt fit centre of both holes (left one seems to be off a little), otherwise, good work!

Its going to be developed over some time.
Coilovers, gearbox with diff are top of the list.
Then once the handling/chassis is sorted it will no doubt be a quest for a little more power, which will probably lead to the engine being forged.
Otherwise, for the time being, enjoy it as my daily...
Thanks for all the positive comments guys!
front is about 30mm, rear seems to be a little less. Its a more subtle drop than some!
Just make sure you get the later versions of whichever springs you go for, as you probably know, they changed the suspension top mounts etc.
