Niko Posted 3February, 2021 Report Share Posted 3February, 2021 Got an invited from TEAM BLANCHARD, COOLDRIVE super cars today to go for a couple of laps around the Island in a Mustang with Tim Slade. The team only established in November last year. The attached clip is going past the pits and heading into turn one. Apparently the speed down the straight before entering turn one is 250 to 270K. Last time I did this circuit was in an MX5 in 2004, was a slight difference I have to say These cars are awesome, and I have much more respect for the blokes that drive them... Great experience..

I bet you enjoyed the experience It was a fantastic experience. I realise the drivers were obviously not going as quick as "normal" with passengers on board, but just watching Tim Slade operate that "Mustang" and the confidence and competence he possess was eye opening. Going past the pits heading to Turn one, the speed was phenomenal... Just trying to imagine driving one of these things with twenty other monsters all around you defies the imagination. wilson59, P-Kay and luzzo 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luzzo Posted 3February, 2021 Report Share Posted 3February, 2021 Great day out @Niko, awesome to see the team putting themselves out to entertain people. Turn one always sorts out the men from the boys. It's eyewatering. But I think you know that now 😜 Niko 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
