Now I don't feel so guilty for cancelling my allocation as result of getting the CGT.

Great write up and amazing images. Thanks for taking the time for the enjoyable read and sharing your experiences with us!

On Board Video

Thanks for all the nice comments . I was able to get this video from a passenger lap I gave . My friend who was kind enough to put his camera in the car has just sent this to me . Hope you enjoy ( sorry I only know how to put the link ) :

Looking at the vid now ( ok so im not driving particularly smoothly ) but its amazing how interactive the CGT is . Pity for cars to loose this , a great pity indeed ...

YOU ARE A VERY BRAVE MAN!! And you have very quick hands with great driving skills.

BTW - Thanks for posting a nice review on the Supersports. The tires sound very very impressive.

I watch a lot of racing and been to a lot of race tracks. No other series of corners can get me as worked up as Eau Rouge.

Absolutely great write up! Finally the Carrera GT has some NEW tires that fit instead of ones from 2003. You should really consider getting Walter Roehrl to take your car around the 'Ring, video confirmation and all. I bet he could pull off a 7:20 with these tires...

ur da man!! Love to see u taking the CGT to do things i will never dare!

switched to pzeros a year back when they have our sizes and they too are much better than stock PS2s, so will wait for my pzeros to wear out and try urs.

but its amazing to see what u are doing with urs, i only drive mine on mountain backroads and sad to say its the slowest of all my cars, 'cause im too chicken sh!t and i cant drive.
