Video 2, the position may not have been so effective (too far forward) and will need some time to join this with some of the static videos..

In 5th Sam :grin: things happen so fast I did not feel I could go up another gear
Next time :grin: :thumb:
I had the same feeling on the Nordschleife on the back straight, must be something to do with logic and living that kicks in. It's as if there's an invisible force stopping you going any faster.
Maybe you've just got to think "OK, if I die, I'll be doing something I enjoy, so let's go it to 6th."
(Only joking CAT team....)
How light was the front end at that speed?
It just got heavy in a progressive manor and Colin commented on the amount of extra downforce he could feel compared to the other 2 993s in our gang ,for me it was all I could do to just keep my focus
I might have to do it again sometime soon 8)
I managed to roughly match Clinchy's speed on the bowl, I thought my OEM car was fairly stable to a point but appreciate how much more stable his car would have been.
I need a time machine to fast forward me to the 5th or 6th May.
How much 'truffle hunting' is going on at 147 on the high speed bowl?
RobIpswichUK said:To be honest almost none. Little bit of fidgeting due to component movement but the car just gets more stable the faster you go. Worst point is probably around 120 when the aero hasn't really kicked in. So keep your foot in and get up to 140 and feel the difference! I was only in early 130's but confidence in it's stability was building as speed increased.
