As achieved on this evenings Brands Hatch Indy Circuit.

Although part of the factor was the heavy foot of the driver

The science, I filled up before the start of the event and refilled at the end back at the same Petrol pump to the same point.

still a fun track day :thumb:
 
the 'best' i could achieve in the turbo was c.11.5 / 12 at Brands - but then again i drive like a vicar.
 
:idea:

THAT explains why you weren't at The Fairmile.

What sort of turnout was there at Brands? Any interesting cars?
 
Hang on, I'm confused - I thought SD had a stripped out 964 :dont know:

Whose is the 993 beauty pictured above?
 
His 993 is for playtime in the meantime.



It wasn't always quite so beautiful. :grin:

Someone bought him a duffle cost for Christmas and he felt the need to swap :nooo:
 
That's what happens when you don't get out of second gear!

a very good turn out of only 30 or so cars, almost all 911's

Indy circuit does give you a chance to hang onto the back of GT cars, since it's not a complete power circuit

although duck tail is staving the engine of enough air for the track, which means I might run it without the engine grill next time


I always did wonder about the fuel economy on very hard driving, Brands Indy was perfect as the speeds weren't so crazy as it was 3rd gear for most of the circuit with spots of 2nd and 4th...
