The d/l links seem to be bandwidth capped now. Any way to release them?

Nice vids - enjoyed watching those.
Out of interest, what's the vibration that was going through the car - doesn't seem to be when he's on the brakes?

The vibration is just the camera vibrating in the mount. The car is silky smooth

I'll get the vids back up, seems my ISP deleted them from the site, along with everything else I had there. Nice

In the mean time anybody who downloaded it care to host them back up?

Was he letting the gearbox do all the changes for him? I presume as it was a CSL with the SMG box you can do that or do you have to operate the paddles?
I wonder, just out of interest, how much a lap that would be worth in terms of not having to take your hands off the wheel, change gear etc....

Was it on the original Cup tyres?

Rosco was changing himself using the paddles. The tyres were 18" x 10" slicks on lightweight BBS alloys.

Was it just a standard CSL ( apart from the slicks ) ? They do seem a pretty good track car considering you can get hold of them for under 45k now
What sort of video camera was it andhow was it mounted into the car?
Anyone tried filming using one of those bullet cams mounted in the front bumper?

Anyone know what spec the burgundy 5-door Sierra (G xxx AHK ) was in video 3?

Standard engine, upgraded suspension and brakes.

The camera was a Canon digital camcorder mounted on a camera mount attached to the rear screen.

Although this car has suspension mods, you don't really need to change it. The only part that needs changing is the brakes to AP 6 pots(just doing the fronts with RS19s all round will suffice). Standard cars (with brake upgrade) are stella on track.

If you can wait a week I'll try and burn them onto a CD for you? My CD burner doesn't come till next week.

Not a great offer I know ....

I knew it wouldn't be any faster overall around the circuit as I used to have a 530bhp Evo VI RS as well. I sold it because I got fed up with noise problems at most circuits in the south, got through a pair of worn slicks every track day (if I completed it) and although it accelerated a lot faster, it couldn't corner or stop as quick as the CSL and my Evo had just about everything done to it!

Good thing about the beemer, if it breaks down at a circuit, just phone BMW and they'll fix it or give you another car while it's being repaired even if you are using it on the circuit!
