Cheeky bugga!
I would say its more like 15!
It is quite simply one of the best experiences of my life!
A must for all enthusiasts!
We timed a run from the wrong place and got a 9.55 or so with one yellow flag. (from the end of the cones) In fact you are supposed to time from the two bridges so i was definently quicker than the tranny van. The trick, i hear, is to learn when to stay flat despite being blind corners but according to Bob van M it takes circa 50 laps to learn properly. Obviously GT4 etc laps before hand helps!

rubbish. If your not near 8 minutes on your first trip then just give up.
As shug says, if you got near an Apex that'd be a start

Those photos were taken during my first couple of laps so there was bound to be mistakes. I also gave up my helmet so people could get pax laps with bob van m so wasnt going at it too hard.
I wouldnt mind if i never get near 8mins.

ALthough to be fair to Ed, he may have been slowed by other adverse conditions such as the beautiful sun or the empty track
