What type of camera did you use? Interesting seeing Mass's lines throught the corners compared to yours. I think he's done it before - once or twice!

Was a Go Pro hero 5 wide. Can mount it anywhere on car. Mas might have been doing it for a while but so have I, about 10 years

I think Mass's braking was the biigest difference - what the time he makes at the approach to the hairpin alone, and down the main straight
I've got 2 of those cameras for the racing this year, so will need to bring them on Frolic also

I'm easier on my brakes, not a race just there to enjoy ourselves.

Most people post up laps looking for some constructive criticism to get faster. Fair enough if that's not your bag, but that's why comments such as Andys are posted.

LOL, not when I was out with you
My intention of putting vids up is just to show people what it was like and the fun that was had by all. People can pass comment by all means but I've been doing KH for about 10 years so if I don't know the quickest way round by now I never will

Trackdays are for having fun, if I wanted to race or be concerned about my times then I'd enter the Lotus Cup.

It may seem that way, but I reckon applying hard braking in short distances is easier on the brakes than gently applied braking with longer distances, as less heat is retained in the discs.
Agree that trackdays are all about fun
See you on track soon.
