    i know youve been a few times, would he not have been doing close to or over 100mph?

    scary how quick it happens, should have bought a rear arb lol

    Not on the Nurburgring though :p

    Asked on the FSTOC to see if it was anyone on there, nasty enough crash, looked like a standard one too and they are skittish without some springs and a rear strut brace

    Springs and a strut brace aren't gonna help there much... to much Forza tuning for you Marc(k)

    Duratec must have kicked in. Yo.

    I'm not so sure that'll T-Cut out, either...

    In that part my M3 hits just over 150 mph, the Clio Cups we had where doing 120 ish.....!

    It is a fast part of the circuit, indeed....

    He was carrying to much speed into the bend.....

    You need to brake hard just after the peak of the hill, and get the speed off, before you turn into the left hand bend....!!

    I'm not seeing his brake lights until he is 1/4 of the way into the bend, then it is to late with all that speed.....!

    Aye I seen that one at Kirky too. Nasty.

    Was that an Astra GSi following it? Thought the Fiesta would have kicked its ass :confused:

    Holy moly, that was nasty.. very fast section there as Amos says.

    Can't believe some of the comments on YouTube, keyboard warriers at their best! Wonder how many of them have actually been to the Ring or a track at all...

    Thats one corner i treated with mucho caution, looks nice and open but requires a good deal of balancing to get right imo.
