Below are two of them, my quickest (9.34) is hopefully coming online tonight.(12.30ish) but there was absolutely no grip! Like driving on ice and the back end was a bit of a handful! Tedious lap, had to be very gentle and careful but worth the challenge. Love the wipers coming on part way through. 'burg! 
No idea why it only happened for that corner!....(genuinely impressed with these in the dry, very twitchy in the wet). How did you brakes hold up. Mine got so hot, when i got home the rubber tyre valve failed. ? Also like to get some better wheel control by getting it polybushed. Should be fun, hopefully finish in time for next year's ring trip! Nice driving.

Hoping to get an engine from work which would be good although not likely to happen for about 6 months.John145 wrote:don't like the idea of all that power coming suddenly!
Very smooth. Your car seems to understeer quite a lot though. Thought it was most likely due to you carrying too much speed in and perhaps not adjusting the balance of the car to bring the rear end in to play. - Circuit Pack 
Spent a lot of time playing it on Forza though! Also I was trying to carry as much speed as possible, in it's current setup it's easy to scrub the speed off with understeer making it quite an easy car to drive on the limit. It looks like I will have to dial in additional static camber. Although I would like to adjust the suspension hardpoints slightly to try and get a bit of neg camber gain through kinematics...
As I said before hoping to get one from work which would be a 2 litre supercharged engine... Although this isn't likely for atleast 6 months! 
I really need to build up experience in driving mine (still learning the dramatic shift in driving style from a FWD MK5 GTI where the power is early and the servo-braking makes it sharper).- we had issues too which is why we ended up hand held. Might save up and try to source a go pro at some point though, as your footage was impressive for the quality as much as for the good driving.

(IIRC) that made 250bhp. No intercooler just driven straight through the SC and into the inlet. Malcolm had a ride in it, he reckoned it went very well. If you're coming to JAE, make sure you come and have a chat, reckon I can put you in touch with the guy with the '3SGZE' if you're interested. I think as the pics show, camber tends to lessen under compression. Could be bushings etc, but for a near standard car it looks pretty composed on track. Think your driving was nice and smooth too. I love the second half, from the Karussel through Wipperman and to Brunchen. I love the Ring and hope to get there again one day with some new wheels I have planned.- Circuit Pack
