MarkCup is your man in the know.

When he spots this thread he'll tell you

You need to be aiming for low 1.30's mate. You won't get much quicker than that in a std 1*2 on road tyres.

Best I've managed is a 1:27 on Yokohama A032s...which are worth about 3 seconds a lap so 1:30 on road tyres would be bang on for me.

I know where there's at least another 1 second (and maybe more depending on how brave I feel :evil: ) to be had though.

This is one of my earlier attempts...time approx. 1:29

On a clear run i can run 1.27s on road tyres! group N ecu I.T.G filter & sportlines.

Must be going some, I've seen Paul J in his standard 182 do a 1:28/29ish on R888s and he was absolutely flying. I seem to remember yours being very quick though, black wheels right?

Yes thats the one, gone now, got an R 26 not tracked it yet!!

As above, Low 1.30s on road tyres in a standard 1*2, below this and your proper fast. Havent had many clear runs and dont expect to if you do an action day there.

I forget the corner names or muddle them up but going by this i make good time at Quarry (needs bottle to brake over Avon rise) but deffo need improvement around Camp (turn in is blind at first and tendancy to turn in to an early apex) the rest is pretty straight forward

Havent got a vid of incar but i am in this from the start and we stay in touch so similar times http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=-4795206273302190471
