I think this is the 1st time i've ever uploaded anything to YouTube.

Thought i'd post a link to some of my Spa laps as well as a flyer round Nordschleife:

Updated with better quality video. Stupid YouTube

So much traffic at Spa!!

Love the way you just leave it in 'D' and blast round - God the way that thing picks up speed is bonkers!

Will experiment more next year with T/C & paddles & beat the 3 min mark. Was mindful of my front tyres which were taking quite a beating so didn't want to be a hero & come a cropper. TBH only a very slight advantage in using the paddles as the M-DCT in its quickest setting is lightning quick, but are a few sections where manual mode would shave off a couple of seconds.

Chomping already to get back.

Yeah you are clearly leaving a safety margin up Eau Rouge [with the front tyres], but the way that thing accelerates when you jump back on the gas is nuts! Is pulling some proper mph into Les Combes. Must be addictive!

Very addictive. It's the car so far i've been the most impressed with as an overall package.
