Alfa Romeo Club track day at PIR!

It was a great day. Perfect weather, beautiful cars and very good and respectful drivers. I was one of the few who had an off (and yes, it was embarrassing). Thankfully there was no one around when it happened, so it wasn't a danger to anyone.

Put together a vid of my fastest lap using a GoPro with the M Lap Timer telemetry info. Enjoy!

Nice! Once, while waiting to come on (I was a passenger), i watched a viper goose it a little too much out of turn 12 and lost the back end. smacked back-end first into concrete barrier -- not pretty.

got to get down there with the M3 one day......

Yeah, I didn't dare turn off the MDM. It was a relatively chilly day, and all it would've taken is a slightly heavy foot to bury you, especially on a warm up lap. I came into turn 10 just a little hot and rather than overcook the brakes, just decided to roll into the grass. It was very undramatic, but I still got a stern word from the organizers.

Nice video. Nice lap. Thanks for sharing!

Nice job. Are you on stock tires?

Yep I was on stock everything. After I messed up my brakes though I'm thinking I'll probably go at least change pads and use better brake fluid next time round
