How about; all leave the pits in a line, fastest to slowest, spend the first lap warming up and then a semi rolling start in a line (not a full on one). Means the slowest are not miles behind giving more laps to the fastest before encountering traffic and then they might only see three or four. Me for eg, at 124 ish, if I am on the same straight as a 116 at the start - 8 secs a lap, might see me after 8 laps? Personally I find it quite OK both navigating traffic and being passed. I know who I'm moving over for pronto and who can follow me for a while without me worrying about holding them up. We can never expect a full set of lovely laps.

Smart move getting a cage, as it allows you to have passengers aka informal tuition. As I found out today, an instructor in a non caged car needs to have an instruction certificate.

Might get more excited when I see it. 3 months, exchange rate shifting, freight cost more than expected. Would probably change my mind if I could now. It will be good when fitted though. Will complete the seat / harness / cage set.

Looks like my old Boxster is sold. Will be nice to get the other half of the garage back. Still a slight sniff of sadness. Not looking forward to handing the keys over.

Matt Have you tried the multi cam function in HLT? This allows you to sync with your GoPro and have both a front mounted cam and a secondary one, some people are mounting the secondary similar to yours, or at the footwell to see heel and toe etc.

I was thinking about the other option, which is to treat it more like a handicap race -- i.e. the slowest car goes out first, and then in increasing order of speed, with the fastest leaving as the slowest car is finishing its first lap. It means the fastest cars are on track for a minute less, but everyone probably does the same number of laps. The problem with this is that everyone will be bunched at the end of the session though, so I guess you can't win! It's a tough one.

How about Fastest cars first - then everyone has a clean run and when the slowest get lapped it's an easy pass (would this ever happen in our 13min ish runs??)
Is it possible to merge goPro and Driftbox/performance box data?

Not brave or crazy............just stupid............it is the wild west, that's why I enjoy it.........!
Mind you, I met Phil there, not sure what his excuse is?
The cars are much closer together so more overtaking options. I find circulating with no one to chase a bit boring.
You guys are starting an arms race with faster cars and I'm being left behind (sob-sob). John's even removing passenger seats to go faster now. In 12 months he'll have a GT3..........

Dropped the car in to Peter Alder to have the RSS toe steer arms fitted.
