The videos look awesome Nick! Were you able to get one of you, Erik, and I running together?

Just uploaded it yesterday. You can see me turning my microphone on during turn 1b lol. I'm surprised I remembered it was off.

^^^

Those were slow laps because I was following a couple of my friend's. If you watch my other street tire video you can see I am pushing it a lot harder.

Savage217: That was actually me driving the MINI Cooper, that was in front of you, in that one Video. (Sorry for being....Slow lol)

Here's my NHMS-4 Video Clip, from Oct 10th (Practice Session #1). I mounted the GO PRO Camera on the Center of the Cowl, near the Windshield.

For Best Quality, go to 720p or 1080p and I suggest that you DO NOT turn your speakers volume too high, due to the loud supercharger whine.

Sounds very much like the Quaife gearset in my Miata,which are an almost straight cut gear design.Nice job on the 116! :wink:

thanks, as i said before we were just having fun, the lap time somehow was a secondary thing since all i was trying to do is to stay ahead of Bert, nice surprise at the end though, i do believe my car has a 1:15's in it, the driver on the other hand.............. :shock:

yep, i seem to go the fastest when chasing or being chased, i remember in WG i was lapping in the 2:16's for a complete stint & clicked a 2:12 while chasing Greg & Paul on the very next one, funny how the mind works! :roll:
