Thanks for a top day (and evening beforehand) everyone, also great to put more faces to forum names!

 

No vids, pics or anything from me sadly, trying to keep the day as low-stress as possible...

Terrible news, no video from me, the GoPro crapped its pants. :( 

 

Sorry @maurici, I guess you’ll just have to have another go!

First vid from me.

Jeff and Stoney using me as the warm up guy. 🙂

Jeff got black flagged for exceeding track limits twice in one lap. 😆

Second one..

 

First part behind @Michael Whitworth, and then @AdamR on his trailer tyres. 🙂  The Lobster was lifting its inside wheel accelerating out of Cascades a la Lotus Cortina! Superb! ..cant see it on the vid unfortunately, as he's just a bit far off.

I've had a go at freezing the lobster three wheeling vid.. I reckon if you zoom in a bit it's visible? 

 

So.. he only needs three trailer tyres to spank me. 😉

Is it as loud when you're driving, or is the noise being transmitted through the chassis to the camera?

 

Going well there Benjamin! 🙂

I'm very surprised at how well the car goes. The gearbox isnt that loud I think it's being transmitted through the car but I do wear ear plugs

Wasn't there a sign saying 'Lights On' as you went onto the track? I got asked if I had any lights (duuuhhh) in a way that insinuated I should have them on...

 

Thanks for the link too, finally a 'tog caught me in the Lobster's natural habitat!
