My first time at Combe I missed the chicane and went off across the grass too.

Fortunately I was in my diesel Yeti so hardly noticed...

Probably smoother than the track

I seem to remember using a bit of grass here and there.  It was all about the same smoothness.

Love it. How to get it so wrong but yet so right all in one go. Epic !

[benjen]

was too late to make it right so just went for the grass  :peek:

Did you not notice the corner till it was too late?

Did you not notice the corner till it was too late?

nope hence my swift exit across the grass, trying to save it would have been a bad idea as Taylor already had the correct position on track

Nice driving Simon, as always.

You always seem to get a good camera angle too.

Thanks Richard, the heavy old girl needs some more power, but it goes well for a standard car. I just wish it was raining

 

Good old piece of wood with two holes drilled for the headrest posts to slot through works rather well, and for free!

I enjoyed following you briefly in session 2 until the mongrel threw a wobbly.  I just kept laughing at the way it was going through the corners,.

What was my car doing at 9.30 odd to make your passenger swear? :P Can't quite see on a laptop screen.

Rolls a bit more than I thought it did tbh. Might need to get the RARB setting changed.
