That's the best in car video track day I've seen....clear view of the track, the cabin, instruments, your hairy arms and gauntlets etc....great work. And that track looks epic! Nicely driven of course. Was there any "heel n toeing" going on?

Agreed, I'd be interested to know what equipment was used, its really good quality!

As for "heel n toeing"....yes! Plenty of that going on now. I'm able to do it pretty much without thinking now, the only time I really struggle is if the pedal goes long on the brakes and therefore I can't get over to blip the throttle. There's still plenty of room for improvement, but it's very satisfying when you nail it!

##Agreed....my right ankle isn't that flexible (old football injury, strained all the ligaments), so I was taught to "toe n toe" it, rolling from brake to accelerator...as you say, takes practice, but immensely satisfying when you get it right!

Just back from a trip to Spa and the Ring. 

 

I'll put a more detailed post up about the trip, but Spa is EPIC. Enjoy!

 

 

That does look EPIC! 

 

love the whole ‘squirmy’ moment right at the end of the video as you come out of the corner at the end of the paddock straight - conveniently the video ends then... 🤪😉😁

 

(Hope you recovered it though 🥺👍🏻)

Don't worry, I wrestled the Croc straight again! I got carried away by the run to the line and left myself a lot to do. 🤪
