Came out quite good, spy camera on front bumper. By no means the fastest but best was a 57.04 (last run)

That made me dizzy just trying to follow that - although it doesn\'t seem as tight as some of Martins (Noyzboy) autosolo circuits.
If I\'d got the brakes bled on Friday, then I\'d have given this a go, oh well - next time.

Nice Shaun, although I think you need to get that gym membership to build up your leg muscles for braking!

Nice video Shaun, thanks for posting that up. I didn\'t go out this year as I thought I\'d let one of the other RPM\'s have a go with Kimi. Will66 got a 63 second lap, in a car he\'d only driven 4 miles before, so I think Kimi is reasonably heathly!
Thanks, the video showed me what I missed this year!

Especially considering I didn\'t go that fast in my RX8. I think it is because I was driving it like a lead footed lummox and trying to slide too much. It certainly wasn\'t down on power.
I\'d be interested to see if there are any photos or video of Kimi on the move.

I think it was definitely designed not to be overly lead footed.
My car was under steering for fun on the previous runs.

He wasn\'t disqualified, it was just going to the fastest Jap car !
I think the next fastest Jap car was one of the Subaru\'s in the morning and then the chap with the supercharged Rx8.
Mark was the fastest by far all day. His car control is awesome and the TT lump in the Lotus looks like it makes an animal of a car !

That would be me :)
Ross, I thought I\'d leave the boost alone since I\'d managed to spin in the morning with it turned right down! Turns out I got to spin a second time anyway. Maybe I should invest in some slicks or at least semi slicks for next year.
Grant, I was aiming for the top 5 this year as I got in the top 10 last year. So over all I\'m really chuffed. Only problem is I\'m gonna have to go all out and try and win it next year now. You\'ve got to set yourself targets!
