Apart from the obvious aggressive self-important driving, I dont think the Lambo guy is bad. Seems either struggling for turn-in / mid-corner grip, or lacking in confidence in the grip that is actually there in some of the bends. (Or maybe spooked by the wriggly front end under braking).
What is certain is that he has more right to be there than anyone else. OUT OF MY WAY!
Bloody Hell, someone bought a Lambo...

In the repaired GT4 Pete?
Any footage? (GT4 or otherwise).

GT4 is back! With strut tower reinforcement top mount hingmys. There’s loads of footage. My mate with the yutoob channel insisting on documenting the whole thing with a target time of 8 mins bridge to gantry. It will be posted in a week or two.
Spoiler - best lap 8:01.5 but with some traffic, I’ll call it a moral victory

Yep, like for like the fast tractor is 90kg lighter than the 911Coaster1 wrote: ↑Wed Apr 24, 2019 10:18 amYeah, just looked into it, 1470 is ‘DIN’ so all the fluids, ‘EU’ adds 75kg accounted for the driver.NotoriousREV wrote: ↑Wed Apr 24, 2019 10:04 am1545 is the "EU unladen" weight quoted on the Porsche website. No idea what that actually means, though
Lambo figure 1376kg is DIN.
A chap on PH had his 996.2 GT3 weighted (with the heavy comfy ‘chairs’ rather than buckets, and IIRC 1/3 tank of fuel, 21L) and it came out 1380kg, which matched the official Porsche figure.
The Lambo weights the same but with 200+bhp more

Re: Bloody Hell, someone bought a Lambo...
I don’t think anyone died though thankfully, god only knows how. Another notable crash was a british plate gtr near the end of the lap. The whole left side and front left corner were mangled and one of the front wheels was about 30m from the car. I’d been chatting with him that morning at a petrol station in Adenau (v close to the track). He also had his wife and young son in the car, all without helmets. Utter madness. Not sure if any of them were badly hurt but they were all out of the car when I passed by
