Thanks, I enjoyed that. He was certainly going for it!

Mischa took my Alfa 147 JTDm around a few years ago, but the video was removed as Porsche complained that it made their GT3s look slow

Great looking carbon black 'Alpina'. Amazing driving skills on display. He drove that car like a casual sunday outing

Love a bit of mischa . His youtube channel is defo one of the best

I love how at the end he asks "is there an M version" and the owner says "yes but you'll never drive one"

I've already booked a 'ring trip in May.....

Can't say I'm a huge fan of his content but no doubt he knows his way around there. I'd expect someone like him would take a good 30s off my 8min wobble round there (i'm pretty much a novice there with <20 laps I think), but no, I wouldn't lend him my car for the 'likes' to find out!

Enjoyed that. Happily let him take round the ring!

A good demonstration of left foot braking...

A good demonstration of left foot braking...

You reckon? I always look at his pedal cam and think 'if there's that much time off the throttle you don't need to be left foot braking there"

I was always under the impression left foot braking was only advantageous to use when you were braking hard for a corner you don't need to change gear for, or in situations where you'd want to trail up to the apex with a little throttle in to get the nose in or to get the car starting to rotate. Or more in FWD Cars with a diff, riding the brakes with a bit of throttle as well to get the diff hooked up from turn in through the apex.

Feel free to correct me there, it's honestly not a skill I've mastered!

I'd say a low 8 is a respectable time Tom, particularly so considering the number of laps you've done!

I haven't done a trackday there, only just the one TF weekend last year. I didn't get a clear lap of the 6 I did over the weekend (mostly traffic/yellow flags, and of course my self-induced pirouette at youtube corner on the last lap ) but my rough theoretical was looking at about 8m4Xsecs-ish on road tyres (MPSS). Now I know the rear tyres were 8 years old and had done a handful trackdays in that time, I think with the new AD09s on it should be a) easier to pedal, and b) a chunk quicker!

I'm not going there for laptimes (particularly on TF days that's just a bad idea), but I'll be curious to see how the old nail goes this year

By the way, I'm looking at another Donny evening session 29th April by the way if you're knocking about Also hoping to get Anglesey in this year (finally!) but dates tbc on that one.

That was a good watch.

Yep, enjoyed that. Certainly had the weather for it. Roll on the summer
