R32 - Kyalami video
Hi All
I finally edited my track day vid , and rather poorly I might add lol.
It was my first time out on track with my car and I loved every second. The R32 is so composed and so grounded out on the track that it made for a really great experience.
My lines weren't great , I am no track day expert , and the second lasxt right hander had me every time. Apart from that the only other corner that I wasn't getting right was the final left hander onto the main straight , only because I was purposely trying to get as close to the wall on every lap to blast the spectators with the aural pleasure that is R32.
Here is a map of the track :
And the video , I hope you enjoy it :
Any criticism welcomed

Re: R32 - Kyalami video
Awesome sounding car is sounding awesome
Looking at the clip, I think you should try turning in a bit later, so that you almost late apex the corner. Also with the 4wd and understeer you need to really man handle the car into the corner. Apexing early, I think makes the understeer worse. But I am talking for racing a fwd car, so I could be a bit off.
Most important thing is that you enjoy yourself
