They'll do waaaay quicker than you'd think, the lads at RSR who hire them out to punters and use them for instruction pedal those things around B-G on road tyres in mid 8s easily.
I'll also add, just because the Pros can do it and the car can do it - it doesn't mean you, me or anyone else should go there and try. It really isn't the place to get it wrong.

Nice, if your gonna crash do it well.
First trip, first lap. Upon arriving back, he said, and I quote:
"I tried doing the jump at the top of Foxhole"
"What jump?"
"Well, there's a jump on the Playstation...."
Hit the L/H kerb at the top and landed a long, long way down the hill after.

i did a 10min dead lap in my standard civic at the time. wanted to take it back after been lowered and remapped but changed to get clio. i am hoping for around the 9 / 9.30 time like.
only managed a 9.56 on the motorbike but was first ever for track experience so i didnt think it was to bad lol

Depends on traffic and weather, early Sunday will be best if there is a sporting event on the afternoon then late afternoon will be pretty quite. Decent BTG should be around the 9mins to 915mins in the clio mate.
Do you live in Sunderland? My mate keeps banging on about a red 200 he sees?

My Twingo goes well round there, so the r27 should be excellent. Aye I ve been trying to convince her to come with me at some point but it is a no no. I am thinking of going on the bike next year but will have to do some uk tracks first on a bike.
