Knockhill SIDC vids 19/03/11

Post by David » Mon Mar 21, 2011 5:30 pm

Here are some videos of Knockhill on Saturday. Nothing too exciting but the car was going well. I was out of practice and struggling to stay focused so it was a steady decline as the day went on; the quickest laps are in session 2.

Of interest is the 'brake test' behind the 211 at 7.46 on session 3 - Alan was pax. Session 5 shows Tut wobble at 15.30 - I don’t know it was the start of tuts problem.

Edit: there's a problem with the Video Vbox freezing data :(

:oops: Sorry about the brake test. Had missed the apex on that occasion and had to remove a bit of speed when should have been back on gas. Had not realised you were quite that close, I guess must have been a surprise over crest.
Nice video set up.

Not a problem, it was just that I wasn't expecting it :shock: It's amazing how quickly you form a plan when these things happen and I was heading for the gravel if you hadn't moved on.

I don't know driving in another way which isn't risky. Each one has to improve himself. Each driver has its limit. My limit is a little bit further than other's.

Your car sounds different...what have you been doing to it now?
Are you running out of gears on the straights?

I put the mic in the airbox so it's all induction noise. If I get a good run out of the hairpin, I hit the limiter in fifth gear - but still got sixth :P

my r400 hits the limiter at about 130 in 6th.

it was doing this at the Ring on the start finish straight about 1/2 mile back from the exit road, and then sitting at 125mph for the rest of that section.

Thats why you'll see some great videos of the Ring with GT3 etc dicing with 7s as they destroy them when the road straightens out, only to get stuffed in the twisties.
