Default Looking for a MSR Cresson 1.7 CW video and Pointers
Hello Gents,

I haven't been to MSR Cresson CW in years and am going back next wknd in my .1RS. I am struggling to find a video of GT3 or RS doing 1.7 CW.

Any videos of track notes would be greatly appreciated. I'm new to the RS so I need to do some homework.

Cw doesnt get raced as much I don't think so there tends to be less useful video. I have one but it's a few years ago and my driving has improved and it was wet. I'm probably 4 seconds slow at least. But it's a 65% rear weight car so its vaguely useful.

I'll be out there this weekend too in the black exige. Bring your wets!

Ritesh, I have one or two videos of the 1.7CW in my 996GT3 from like 2012 or so on youtube. Not current, but should still be a little helpful. Best bet is to run the track on a sim. [I have piles more on my local drive if you want anything else, but they are all pretty stale]. Also, looks like rain this weekend - doh!

There's a couple of good video's on YouTube featuring Jason Hart that are good to watch as prep. It's a fun track that allows you to push the limits with minimal consequences unlike other tracks I race on. Grip is very poor in wet and cold, pretty worn track surface. Have fun!

THX!! Your video was the only one I have found so far. Found some BMW videos etc but none that show trail braking in a 911. Great driving! Thx again.

RAIN?!! ------NOOOOOOOOOO

Thanks for the video. I was the second orange GT3 you passed. Lol. I passed the RS and then you passed us both. Thanks for the look.
