At first I thought it was Mart up front and I thought "Blurry hell this man is fast to close on Mart like that" then Mart came past
well you answer your own question when you realised quarry was a touch early and the only cars that can take that line are ones with huge power and they dive straight to the apex under braking and then turn immediately accelerating away.
Looks like a lot of fun was had and I hope the 12th is fun too.
Well........ Mart has about 50 more horses than me and not much more weight. Plus years and years more experience at Coombe, which is his "home circuit".
As that was only my third visit in 20 something years (first was pre-chicanes) I am not upset by being passed by him, just wish he'd slow down a tad so I can follow him and learn his lines and braking points!
I'm not normally that messy at Quarry and have it fairly well most of the time, its the corner into the pit straight (can't remember it's name) which is bugging me, I seem unable to carry as much speed through it as other drivers and it's costing me. At the very end of the clip you can see both Mart and the 2k leave me for dead on the pit straight. I must be braking too early and/or too much, must work on my commitment!
