My Nurburging and Spa trip
 

Just back from the Ring and Spa last night, awesome trip! I should be back to the ring very soon! After 3 days in the Ring, Spa became pretty boring as the track is so wide so I ended up drifting at most of the corner in Spa. http://www.itr-dc2.com/forum/images/smiles/icon_lol.gif

So here is my first ever lap at the Nurburging, did 8mins 40ish. Did much faster in the afternoon but always got block with accident or traffic.

Spa video will be up tonight!

9:23 BTG according to your video....

8min 40 would be a hell of a lap for your first trip

Lap time start counting from the old pit and end by the bridge.

Even 9:23 is pretty exceptional for a first trip!!!!

yeah, afternoon was much faster but too many bike accidents so didnt time any of them. I think I got about 10-15secs off in the afternoon.

Spa video will be up soon, contain loads of Silding!:)

Here is the video from Spa

First Lap ever in Spa - YouTube - Spa Francorchamps 1st Lap

Me got bored and start power silding - YouTube - Spa Francorchamps Subaru

Tried to do a Feint drift round the bus stop but failed.... - YouTube - Spa Francorchamps Subaru

Things got better when I clicked on the links at the end of the "power sliding" video........

Everyone else in the world uses the Bridge on the main straight just after you exit the toll booth, to the gantry after the last corner exit onto the main straight as the timing points for public days. Hence BTG (Bridge To Gantry).

Lap times are irrelevant but I've watched the vid and if that was your first time round it's very neat and tidy. Seem to know where you're going just a few confidence lifts in the faster stuff. Great driving. :luxhello:

yeah, PS2 helps abit so I kind of know whats coming up next:)
