A Lap Of Lakeside

[hrd-hr30]

from last weekend's Street Sprints. new PB for the car 1:00.79. I think the lap in the video is a 1:00.89 if I got the right lap from the right session. Might inspire some of you southerners to come up here for a drive of the fastest track in the country.

Nice one Harry.

Whats with all the dirt on the left before Hungry? Had rain washed it there?

[Roy]

LEGEND! Love watching rwd cars being punted hard. Top shelf control...but fark me that track looks scary

[Gts-t]

Nice work harry, i was out there a few weeks ago on sunday having a bit of a look. i think im going to need a fair bit of practice at qr before lakeside

[Marlin]

Gee come on you soft cokks, it's not that scary!

[hrd-hr30]

Ben, appaently it flooded down there with all that rain we had on Easter Monday.

Thanks Roy. The walls are a bit close in places, but it really is a great fun track to drive with the elevation changes, camber crests on corner exits and the high average speed.

Mick, it was actualy the first track I ever drove on. you'll be alright if you treat the place with respect and learn the track before pushing too hard. It scarred the crap out of me first time I drove there...

[Marlin]

Come to think of it, my first ever track too Harry

[Roy]

I find when you look at footage of tracks its very different to when you are driving. I bet you dont even notice the walls etc when you are driving or the bumps. I know as a passenger you notice it all...but driving... you seem to zone out.

Will make it to Lakesie one day, Mallala is going to happen before that though

[Marlin]

July 19 is the next one I think, so hopefully then. You gonna come out Mick? .... in your car, not the closet.

Ah, Lakeside one of my all time favourite tracks. The last time I raced there was 1981, the trophy is still on the shelf, needs polishing though. Shoot, I feel old just thinking about how long ago that was. Gotta get back there next year, it's on the list.

Cheers

mad vid man, nice work. def one of the ballsiest videos of lakeside i found while you tube surfing (other than the full race videos). thats some mean wrestling. cant wait to get out there and have a go myself, maybe a bit tamer than that on my first run out though.

so whens the next track day out there, when any idiot and his car can come out and play?

[hrd-hr30]

[Gts-t]

Marling, it will be a month or two before my shitbox is out there. When are you heading out for a race next , id love to see you car in action

[Marlin]
