Looks like you had some fun. Mallory park looks very narrow! Never been there myself.

That beetle is awsome. Did it have a porsche engine, it seems to grip well around corners too.

the beetle uses a space frame chassis single seater VW 1900 cc engine with a fibre glass body. so I thought I did well to keep up.

The Beetle-style bodies sit on a tubular steel chassis powered by an 1800cc, 130bhp VW/Audi engine - mid-mounted for optimum balance. And they're quick too - weighing only 760kg.

ALothough I must warn you it's nearly 8 minutes long but you get to see alot of other cars on track.
