My Ride: 535D Sport Auto

Great vid Steve, brings it all back, will be there on 15th Jul for a few laps. On the vid with the Seat Leon could you have passed him/her or was his/her car quicker? Its just that with your expertise on the Ring I thought you would have easily passed him/her or was he/she a very experienced driver?

Absolutely stunning
Few questions:
1. How is this done - presumably you have some diagnistic kit attached to your car - graphics for acceleration/ braking / left / right are brilliant as is the ring diagram - looks like playstation
2. Presume the numbers on the right are miles per hour - think I saw 133 plus at one point.
3. What does the number on the left (500) mean ?
4. Who was driving the M6? - it clearly had the edge when accelerating out of corners, but you kept catching him on the bends - is that just cause you are a better driver or know the circuit better ?
Fabulous stuff - really great

2. MPH
3. 500 is a fixed field being sent by DL1 because I don't have a RPM feed - working on that.
4. M6 driver is a friend from Finland who I met last year at the ring - hard to compare our experience but I don't think he's been on a training course at the ring (which I have) but as you know the only fair way to compare something is to have the same driver. We were just both out there having fun

Great Steve! Good run, but let's be honest the guy in the M6 either didn't want to push it that much, or didn't know the track that well or lacked skill or smth...Either way good run...and another proof that the diesel doesn't sound as diesel anymore.

Great Vid!
I am appreciating the 535d more and more, the longer I have it the less bored I am getting with it which is unusal for me. Watching your vid makes me want to get some proper suspension put on and a better ARB.
