More Mazda Speed Cup Trial Footage


I finally pulled my lap times out of my lap timer. No segment times unfortunately. Pretty happy with the times though. I got 5 x 1'09 times and 5 x 1'10 times with a mix of other laps in between. I'm pretty sure I should have got a 1'08 on the second lap in this video as I had to slow down going through Dunlop and just after it as another car was in my line. Oh well. that happens :-) Next time I'll try leave a little more space to play with. The lap times shown in this video are 1'09.425, 1'09.96 and 1'10.46.

Looking forward to seeing your driving at Eightlien-cup Race next year.

Tom:
Hello--Jeffrey, again. I just watched the non-spin-out clip you posted to the RX8Club thread. Followed it here. I actually enjoyed this clip most of the three I have viewed. Gave a more comprehensive glimpse of the T2000 track.

After growing up on the Hollywood movie, herky-jerky & frantic (but false) depiction of the race experience, I continue to be amazed at how smooth and relaxed real racing looks from the cockpit. (Remember, I have never raced or even tracked, so I have no firsthand experience of this.) But of course, it would have to be so, wouldn't it? Otherwise, you might end up chucking it into the hay bales more often than not!

Thanks again,
Jeffrey
