Have done Goodwood many, many times including Saturday just gone, but got taken out in a radical S3 today, unbelievable.

The large amount of downforce and a 1500 hayabusan Suzuki engine just allowed ridiculous speeds, amazing.

Annoyingly I hadn't signed in as a driver else could have driven it as well.

Not get a ride in the RXC Martin?

[MartinS]

Sadly not but would have just been even more of the what the S3 did, seriously mind blowing.

Been out in one of the earlier 1300cc ones, pretty amazing stuff. On the subject of pax rides, I got a go out in a Mclaren 570s at Knockhill, what a peice of kit. Carbon Ceramic brakes are just immense.

i got within 0.2 seconds of one of them on a sprint course

 

the 570s was his track car

 

 

i would love to have a go in a radical, i bet they get extremely fed up of cars on track tho as nothing would keep up

I was quicker over a lap at Knockhill but any circuit with decent size I wouldn't have stood a chance. He was fairly committed and I thoroughly enjoyed the ride.

Rapid! I've never done knockhill just watched and had a couple pax laps. I'm crap at sprints, I go out expected it to grip on cold tyres ans brakes Still was a good giggle

I recon I should be on for a 58 second lap with a dry day under my belt. Such a great track, looking forward to next time. I've never done a sprint but I doubt id be any good, my speed comes from practice and familiarity which are two things you don't get a lot of on a sprint.

Get tyres that grip from cold and dont use the brakes!
