Roger Norman doesn't seem like a very good driver out there. Looks like he almost went off the side in the beginging lol.

too much hesitation, braking on all the curves and might have some brake fade on an uphill climb.

was this serious? he can't consider himself a trained racing driver.

the pics that were posted on here looked cool until i found out where his front end damage came from. good to know there are so called professionals out there that drive worse than me.

First I thought he was a crappy driver and was going slow as hell. Then I went under the You-tube link and read the comments. He said the hay bales busted his I/C Pipe and he was N/A for the whole run.

He still lost it a few times with less power.

How much HP would our engine make N/A??? like 200HP?

He looked slow, but still busted it sideways. could he do that without Turbo? Or is that just his speed on loose surface?

I have never got to track a car
Is it normal for the brakes to be that loud? uphill?

well, without any further comment,
Try to take off you iC hose and drive the car. You will be surprised how is your engine will run/ or rather not run/
Now with higher HP i would pull a side if my IC house is got damaged...

Wow, I couldn't watch more than like 5 minutes of it. It was almost like when I let my dad drive my car through the local reservoir and he wouldn't push it at all and was constantly braking at the wrong times and constantly out of boost or in the wrong gear. Not really sure if that was supposed to be a warm-up/ get used to the course run or what, but that was very boring.
