Some lovely track snaps, looks superb on track. CW 3door with Xenons is my soft spot :laugh: :wink: :evilgrin:
Dump these in the track photo thread @Shoduchi :happy2: That's a thread I want to keep running for sure, one of my faves on the forum. Try and keep it topped up where I can...

Short clips from a dash cam from a diesel Ibiza better track prepared than mine, at least it had much better tyres.
The 1st video happened after the lunch break, in the 3rd round, so we all started slowly to warm up the engines, tyres and brakes. At some point I saw that I had another car near mine so I accelerated to move away from him. After a yellow flag he was too near so I let him go, as I always did when I saw someone too close to me. :smiley:
The 2nd video I'm not sure when it was, most likely during the 2nd round. You can see a white dot in the start of the corner in the beginning, then they catch up when I was at the slowest corner of the circuit. The GTR only caught up almost at the end of the straight of the start line. I had a blue flag so I braked pretty soon to let him do the corner without any trouble. The Ibiza took the chance to pass as well.

Inboard video from the last session of the day:
Still needed to practice more. Not really pushing the tyres at the maximum, they were showing some not nice wear marks...
Shoduchi:
Today I had the chance to set my rear sway bar to the stiffer position and took a couple of pictures of my tyres.
Both my rears look like this:
They weren't that bad before the last session... :laugh:
The front left isn't that bad but has some good wear marks and lack of some bits too.
