Cool vid!
Though your hand position for any left handers did annoy me. Ha.
Hands should never be away from a little above 3 and 9. You had your left hand at 11/12 a lot.

Still, it's something you never notice until you video it, and you then see where you should be taking your lines etc after the fact.

I'm sure your aware that broken down gt86 is why the first session was ended early and you didn't get the full time. Grrrrr.

Yeah i understand the red card for the first one. Just a shame we wasnt put back on track after as hadnt been out for long though they were running behind.

One reason i video is to see where im going wrong. Thanks for pointing that out.

Watching it, there is definitely a lot to improve on including my lines and putting the power down sooner.

That just comes with pratice. More laps you do more confident you get. Though they don't give you much!!

I had the same, when I was there couple of years back, i watched my vids and realised I took a couple of corners at the wrong line.

Surprisingly bumpy track!

Great to see though car behaved itself.

I assume the skyline was pulled from the track? Clearly had a screamer pipe we he overtook you.

Not sure bout the skyline.
The car performed great and now its got your old hybrid you can feel it keeps pulling where the power used to drop before. Also the decat and chargecooler is now on there so that can only help.

I noticed a blowing on the way home from the exhaust so it seems the manifold needs tightening up again or my helicoil may have come loose.

On holiday in a few weeks so may sort after.

Also need to sort my pp spat i damaged he day before where i reversed into an axel stand i left out :(
