Yes you're all right. You all drive like gods on your third lap of a new circuit. You all know the lines to every track immediately. You've not had an instructor telling you to take it easy while he talks you through each bend (the other guy was on his own). My lap time shows I took it in and applied it.
As for this forum, it's my choice to use it, it's your choice to be complete *****. It's my choice to stop using it. The tipping point between banter and plain nastiness has been reached.
Bye.

Kin 'ell....
I know (and he knows) that Matt can be a **** at times, but I think some of you are being a bit harsh on this.
At least he's been on track, unlike many with decent 'track' cars. ( I include myself )

He dishes it out but can't take it himself, he shouldn't take things so seriously or so personally, you can clearly see it's all just humorous banter (albeit at his expense ) and nothing vindictive. He'll be back in a month or so, he usually is and perhaps he'd have grown a thicker skin.
ps. I have been to the Bedford track and is great beginners track, flat with big safe runoffs, cones mark off the apexes and braking points, you should give it ago, doesn't cost much.

I'd love give that a go in my 13 y/o vts, it's worth a grand tops
Don't think I'd risk 35k worth , unless I was on 100k a year
( like every body else on this thread )

This one?? It's still on YouTube??
On the face of it, part of me agrees with this...
...but having been a spectator to his tantrums and hissy fits on here for a longgggg time, all of me agrees with this.
The guy needs to wipe his vagina, change his tampon and accept that if you put yourself out there as an authority on X, Y or Z then you are inviting people who are far more experienced in X, Y or Z to call you out occasionally and you need to be able to handle that without throwing your toys out of the pram.
Cheers,

Matt,
You really are a tool sometimes and you wonder why you get occasional jibes made.
You come on here and tend to wind some up, we all laugh and move on. However, we give you some gentle pokes (which you do tend to line yourself up for) and you chuck your toys out of the pram.
Relax. It's all banter.

I was going to agree with this until I saw the vid. F*ck me those lines are terrible
(and yes, I've been on track - in both road and purpose built slick shod sprint/racing cars)
BUT!
If its Matt's first time on track and he's only done a few laps then you can't expect them to be perfect. If there's anyone to have a pop at its the "instructor" who should have been coaching all through he lap, with braking points, turn in points, etc.

Lol my 84 year old nan in her nissan micra drives better lines than that and takes bends faster than you and you're in your super brilliant BMW.
