Turns out they actually film you and provide the footage free of charge! who knew? Not like they advertise or anything...

Here it is for anyone interested:

Yep Played to death in GT5, found it helpful when doing that with the ring but not sure how much difference it'll make when doing such a short circuit. Going to bring the helmet cam just in case though and if i can get something i'll post it here

Hi Guys,

I mainly lurk on here but my lovely wife has recently got me this for my birthday...

(https://topgeartrackexperience.com/product/1)

I cant find any kind of serious review or video of the experience anywhere online and was wondering...

A) If anyone has done it and has any tips or advice? I do quite a bit of karting and the odd track day so am hoping to be somewhere near the front but you only get two real laps so you need to get up to speed sharpish.

B) If anyone knows if you're allowed a helmet cam in the car? I've got my own lid with a go-pro setup but due to the absolute lack of any footage i can see on youtube i would suspect you arent allowed to use it?

Any help appreciated. Gunning for Mr LeBlanc

If we're posting Karting vids thought this might be interesting. The track was still damp offline from rain the night before...

Qual will start either when the grid is full or when the admin starts the game (if it's a private game)

Things Jonathan Legard should be slapped for saying

#1 "He knows the time to beat...."

#2 "Is it going to be good enough?" and "(name here) isn't good enough"

Feel free to add

Ok firstly it's Morocco.

Yes in theory you could, it would be flat of course. However the WTCC never runs on oval tracks so i am not sure what would race on it.

Cant do it by yourself you need to steer using the lights of the car in front.

I used to do it on the back roads with my friends but have never tried racing under those conditions

Quote from Intrepid :On a side note does anyone think Legard isn't a great choice. He sounds like Brundle in tone on occasions, and seems to think he's on the radio. Hates me to say this, it really does, but at least James Allen gave Brundle some breathing space and voice was different than Brundle.

Bring back Walker ffs!

I totally agree, he doesn't seem to really flow correctly. Kept cutting across martin and then seemed to forget his point a few times. Also totally agree with what you said about him still commentating like he is on the radio.

Having said that though i imagine that this is the first time they have ever done commentary together (do they do "practice" commentary?) Hopefully it will get better fast.

Slightly off the current discussion line but i wonder if the Brawn will run that livery at the first race or if they will unveil some kind of sponsors. From what i understand they already have a full budget for 2009 so i guess they dont really need any.

Dont really like the current colours though.

Looks Reasonably certain.... wonder if they have all the funding agreed yet?

Nice helmet!
Reminds me of Nvidia.

I like it too, its nice to see something different to the red/black/silver combination that seems to be so widely used

not sure if anyone has mentioned this....

I am running Z5 and this seems to happen to me all the time. In single player i have been doing qualifying. When i start the session the first time all is fine and the game runs as normal.

When i end it though and try to restart after changing my car the game seems to crash every time. (lfs.exe has stopped working. Close program?)

Is anyone else getting this?

wow..... any secondary source?

Possibly slightly off topic but does anyone know what is happening to the GP2 coverage? Does the Beeb get that as well or will it remain with ITV2?

Personally i would prefer to see it back with eurosport

I wouldn't have thought that Ecclestone would have sold them the rights if he thought it was going to be substantially worse than the ITV coverage.
