Hey, that was me (in the yellow GT3) and Jim (MacGT3) going by right after the spin. That video looks like it has a date stamp of 12/07. I probably have a video of it from my car. If you want a chase aspect let me know and I will look for it.

His entry is actually rather late for that turn and he never gets down to apex. You can enter that turn a lot faster.

Hmmm...

We here can only speculate about throttle application, and the track conditions (anecdotes notwithstanding). Two things I do know;

1) The more power you have (and/or the less grip) the straighter the wheel needs to be there.
2) .................



Same old story.....

I was going to say that it had the wrong driver in it.
