Agreed some of those M235i race cars had very iffy drivers. The grey tuned UK 1M was also surprisingly a mobile chicance. Same driver who blew up the mega-tuned GTR last year after a few laps.

That's Tin, a very quiet chap, it was a 135 with mods. slightly work in progress i think, sounded very odd.

My language is rather colourful, to say the least!

Nice vid Alex,
From the few vids I saw , It seams that the sessions are not categorised, as very fast , fast , novice drivers ,
Not enough entries I suppose , was it ok ....

Yeah most uk organised days a "open pitlane" and "overtake by consent". This was a fully booked out day. Big name places like Spa and Silverstone can attract some extreme cars and sometime people basically bring full race teams for testing. The speed differential can be massive, but so long as everyone is respectful there's no drama.

Yeah there is only overtaking on the straights, so you pull offline and lift off to allow people to pass safely.
