KenEvans Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 In the interest of the Caterhams putting on a good show..... List 1A tyres, 32.81 seconds. 0.6 secs off the record - it should have been a little quicker but for the tardy 2nd to 3rd gearchange and the moment under braking into the bottom S that spoiled my line. The fast left hander is called Crossing and it's not anywhere near as bad as it looks when walking. Carry as much speed through here as possible to maximise your Bottom S approach. You can brake much later than expected into the Bottom S due to the steep gradient. My Bottom S approach speed is 90mph. here It might take me a minute or two to get the link right!!

Silver 21 Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Ken Good run, I can vouch for Ken's comments having driven it a few times, the bends look quite scary when you walk the hill but are not as bad when you drive it however don't be too cocky it bites back. Ken is right about the braking as well everyone tends to brake too earlier for bottom S (90 degree left) but the fact you are on a very steep hill (wait till you walk it in the morning) slows you down anyway. Its over very quickly but good fun, see you all in the morning, I may even make it for the walk up the hill 😬 😬 😬 Graham Lotus 7 Club General Secretary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Plato Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Ken is right about the braking as well everyone tends to brake too earlier for bottom S I find its the 6 foot stack of railway sleepers in front of you on approach at 90+ mph, and the 12 " strip of gravel trap in front of them - that makes me brake early 😬 😬 😬 😬 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrian Williams Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Many thanks Ken, good looking run and much more use than the one I found. I had found this one http://videos.streetfire.net/player.aspx?fileid=00403595-00C0-44FF-95D8-CED551A51858 But there isn't too much that's relevant to my car Adrian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
