And a track day vid with me and my car on. This was my first session of the day and my first ever track day so wasn't going to fast untill later on in the day. Wasn't taking the right line either really. It looks like were going really slowly!

nice 1 mate, ahh yes croft is a great track some wonderful fast corners and then that bloody tight hairpin onto the main straight makes it one of my favourite to race at, glad you had a good time, although deep down your never going to give it 110% in your road car are you which i dont blame you for, its a lovely car mate

towards the end of the day i was trying to give 100% but now i feel i could have given more. The hairpin was impossible for me to get right on my first day, although that the only place where the scooby could leave me due to his traction!

yes trying to get over to the right hand side as quickly as possible from the previous corner (which if you are confident with try left foot braking it to hold the nose in, thus helping you get across to the right hand side) and then you want as late turn is as possible, (unless your racing and someone is hustling you lol), and feed the throttle in until you have clipped the apex of the corner and then get hard on the gas and use all the exit curb of the hairpin to gain maximum speed down the long straight :approve:, hope you crack it soon mate

was using every mm of the exit curb onto the home straight
