A brief video of one of my fellow competitors making me forget that this was a regularity event... and making me bust my time.....

Was it a regularity for the full 6 hrs? Long time to be on track putting in consistent lap times.

Couldn't face being overtaken huh?

here is the view of the same piece of footage taken from the other drivers car!!

with wath engine is transaxel?

[jimnielsen]

Its a 3.2l 24valve Alfa GTV6 configured as a pure racecar..

[Steve Webb]

Ha ha, love the way the white gtv just gives up and spins mid corner .

Seems like you had a lot more power than him on the straights Jim.

[jimnielsen]

yes.. but its a regularity event - if you can believe that - and he was supposed to be doing 1:41 per lap and I was supposed to be doing 1:46.

I can do about 1:35 on this circuit - but not for 40 laps!!

[Steve Webb]

Blimey Jim, with the fuel you run wouldn't you need a larger fuel tank to make 40 laps?

Lovely sounding car - just perfect. Looks like he got a whack too

[Steve Webb]

In all honesty I hate videos like this, they make my racecar itch even worse.

[jimnielsen]

Steve - to make matters worse, I can assure you that its amazing fun to drive a Q4 on the track configured like mine!

Alfajack - yes - there was a little contact between the two white GTV's - just a little panel damage though!

[Steve Webb]

Hi Jim, I can see from your vids how much fun your Q4 is on track, I've taken mine out a few times.
I've got a hankering for a rwd toy to be honest, and got a few enquiries going on at the moment to put something together. Fingers crossed at the moment.
