In the beginning of the video while still showing an exterior view, the car goes around what looks to be about a 180 degree left turn with a bank. Mid-way through the turn, as the boost starts to come back in, I think I see a quick flame exit from the wastegate side of the exhaust. Other than a flame coming out of the exhaust side on lift off, I have not seen this before. Are my eyes deceiving me? If not, what causes this?
What could thay have done to the car ,to get those flames from the WG?

Good point, probably not stock.
Remember this guy who was really fast, I asked him about his car, -"it's stock", he said. After a few minutes it turned out to be 2.200 lbs, race suspension, bigger brakes, a custom chip, race cams and the list went on...
It's allways "stock" isn't it? :-)
Anyway, it's still impressive driving, just a few seconds slower than Porsche factory driver with a 996 GT3 Mk1.

Ya...flames can be thrown from the waist gate pipe. On my car it happens most when coming back up on boost from a (slow) shift. There is enough fuel that loads up it's thrown out from the exhaust and waste gate. Gotta love CIS :-)

"Bridge to Gantry", a way of time a "tourist lap" since you can't make a full lap.
