Some videos from Spa trackday

[shiyan]

Best video is probably this one - amazing CLS AMG that threw off a huge amount of sparks, and me almost getting run off the road



Laps in the wet, 3:25ish on the 2nd lap - last time I was at Spa was 3 years ago, back then I couldn't drive, and did a 3:35 with a Z4 3.0i, in the dry.

Fun ding dong with a S4



some dry laps, 3:13ish on the 2nd lap, around 3s slower than the Yozza Clio but this was my first time at Spa with the Clio and there's still quite a lot of places to improve

Just saw that Dale Lomas, who can manage 8 minute bridge to gantry laps in his turbo MX5 (so roughly 40s faster than me at the Ring in the dry), did 3:24 in the wet, which means my 3:25 was pretty good :lolup:

Jesus that first video with the AMG in it, The chap in the Gold Seat (I Think) needs to use his Mirrors a little more!

Looks like it should be possible to take Eau Rouge and Blanchimont flat, or nearly flat. So will be trying to work up to that next time if the track is dry.

Didn't dare push harder on those corners this time as the curbs remained wet and could have caused some problems had I attempted to use them too much.
