You were definitely down on power, assuming that Ali had a pax he was pulling away from you on the straights.

i think it might be, i also had a large passanger (i had to use 2nd at clarks
)and my tyres were way below the markers (but it souldn't make that much of a difference)
Its weird as the last time i really drove the car was on frolic and there was no difference in power then.

Re: 211 v 211 @ AMP3
Nice vid. 
Mine is standard other than 2bular cat and back box...never been RR'ed.
I had no pax at that point which makes a massive difference...>10% on power/weight...plus I felt a big difference in corner speeds and braking sans pax.
I think the video seems to show the g/box differences. I can't believe how far up the pit straight you get in 2nd gear? Think I was changing up much sooner and I needed 5th on the straight. Are your Jubu gears 3rd and 4th or 2nd also?
Shame there wasn't really a clear lap to see the times.

You are leading with the chin on this one..........
Ali is racing snake in comparison to your "fuller" figure.
Ali has a virginal car compared the the dogging yours has received over 3 years
Add to the mix a hefty passenger and you might get nearer the answer.
Another consideration is that Ali is a better driver than you

Its make me feel better that I only lost half the straight to Ali in 2 clear laps when I was in it, most of which was at the chicane, as I couldnt see over the steering wheel

Thing is tut passed me on the straight (held me up on the corners) as well and i had Lindsay in the car. the only thing i can think of is the intercooler pipes could be full of leaves and my air filter is exposed = it was pissing done in Aberdeen when we left.

Haha! Scotty's fixed seat is too far back for me. Could you reach 1st gear?
Think I had a pax when you were driving Stu (who kicked the wing mirror so couldn't see much behind).
Yes I'd rather not bang my brand new 'door handles' mate.

Re: 211 v 211 @ AMP3
I remember Scotty thinking his car was down on power last year, when i popped over to a r/r session he was at. At the time I was thinking Racing Driver excuse but pretty clear from the video Something isn't right.

I did have my jacket stuffed down my back, but could have done with about 5 jackets to even get in the seat.
If you look at some of the pictures, (one at the harpin I think) you will see how low I was in the car.

Re: 211 v 211 @ AMP3
I understand the fixed seat mounting lowers it a fair bit. I should get the fixed brackets for mine really...
