That was after I was bollocked at lunch for taking piss big time with my lines, . I think it was because whilst driving off the track I passed 3 cars who stuck to the track. Oops I think I nearly touched the wall on the left. Frustrating thing is I tried to record about 5 sessions but I think I fooked up as I only got 2 on the camera.

It made me about 7mph faster down the back straight if you straight lined the fooker. Just shy of 160 was my fastest down the back straight.

he was using the Shimmy line thru Eau Rouge though - accelerating all the way from the bottom via a new striaght line

just checking me top GPS speeds (year/MinERspeed/Maxspeed)

2008/94/135
2009/98/138
2010/96/141

only got two laps this year anywhere near decent thru ER and still way off what is possible

good news about above is that the car is pulling better than previously (lower ER speed but higher top speed uphill!!), also on this lap this year i braked 70m early due to traffic so another 3/4 mph likely

anybody know what the speedo reading would be from 141 or 144 GPS?

They all vary slightly, but I would say 146-150, My csl reads high compared to gps but the porsche was more accurate.

I cant wait to do spa now in the csl, see how it is
