Boring you to tears surely
Here are some fmore FLATOUT video's from last weekend

In the dark 1
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6wsNnZ5L58

In the dark 2
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nID_AWL1Yg4
Track out of T1, Apex of T12, bishop bend and braking point T17 were hard to find...

Very weird and busy session (Side by side practice??) + crash 5 seconds before end.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4q4-sOAZOUc

Grab over sideways T7 look at 3:10
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N6H6b...eature=related

My biggest screwup till date; Driving hard to stay with Gavin and could do so because of traffic only, but soft brakes into T17, almost hitting Gavin with his super duper sequential shfter in his '07RS (RalleySport). Look at 9:30

That 07 RS in front of you have a serious re-geared transmission, he upshifted 4 times when you shifted just 2, and your RS already has a short R&P.

Yeah, sequential shifters feel like cheating. The guy with the Viper ACR last month said he could not gain on me on the straights, and asked me if I had any modifications done to the car (power wise).

Gavin Riches GT3 needs to be compared to a cup in lieu of a standard GT3

I belive he is running 4.0 rear and re geared transmission. He is at the top of sixth entering T17 (I have been in his car before at Sebring). Complete interior strip, soild mount suspension, I think Motons, cup exhaust. It is the car he races in Targa New Zealand.

Here is an old video of it

Yes it is a ralley car, Gavin participated twice in the New Zealand ralley with that car, so he has re-geared the gear box, not only R&P!

Nice driving Peter! Love the night part. You should put half a kilowatt rallye lamps. The difference is "night and day" : )

Speaking about rallye the Izzone video is fantastic. This guy has big ***** or small brain or both. Love it!

That's Gavin and that's the same car, I think he is 6'5" or 6'6".
Now I understand the full cage at least he did not have to worry about anyone rear ending him ;-)

He has taken me out on Sebring with him

There is no ideal line for Gavin......he just points, shoots and turns.....constantly sawing at the wheel looking for traction

Nice driving as always Peter. I have plenty to look at before I come down in a couple months. I know that night driving is something else

I posted this in the racing forum. For a short while, you can see Peter rapidly fading in the distance:

Peter,

I have been having fun with your Sebring Traqmate data. I can't wait to get to Sebring again with the Fiat.

From all your sessions, the GT3 RS topped at 148.03 mph before Turn 17, the Fiat 155.39 mph. Funny fact is that I have to start braking earlier, but by the time you hit the brakes for 17, I'm doing 148mph.

Comparing no traffic laps, I pull more g's in all turns except 7 and 17 (go figure). You go flat-out from turn 7 to 10, and I coast. At turn 17 you're on average 5mph faster.

Funny fact, the entire turn 16, you enter fast and exit slow (83mph 86 mph), I enter slow and exit fast (79 mph 91mph), on this small turn you pull more g's (1.38g vs my 1.19g), but I beat your segment time by 0.3 secs (too much for a 6.6 secs section).
