Popular Post Brookes9 Posted June 29, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 Hi guys, I did my first ever track day which was at Silverstone this week in my 3 eleven and had an instructor with me the whole day (Dave Pitttard) who did an amazing job of putting my nerves at rest and teaching me the lines etc while getting me quicker throughout the day. Im curious what is considered a good lap time around the GP circuit? My times were obviously very average but Dave did 2 laps in the car himself which were obviously considerably quicker than mine and so i was wondering what was considered a good benchmark. Its the first 3 Eleven in the UK to have the Hangar 111 470 Upgrade and the increased torque in the car, along with the extra power feels insane to someone with very little experience like myself. Ive put a copy of the rolling road below with the pre and post upgrade figures. My best time of the day was 2:36 and Daves was 2:21 with me in the car (6 foot 4, 15.5 stone passenger). He only did 2 flying laps so i would be curious how much quicker he could of gone if he was on his own and had a proper run of it. Happy for you comments positive and negative. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevsked Posted June 29, 2018 Report Share Posted June 29, 2018 Fantastic car you have there, congratulations, I’d love one. I was over 2.38 all day a few weeks ago in my GT430, couldn’t chip anything off it. Having a geo as that should help and keen to try again soon. Trevor. Quote I'll get around to it at some point.

550superfast Posted July 1, 2018 Report Share Posted July 1, 2018 I got some laps on video from a few weeks ago. Was 2.25 in the morning on the one I have uploaded. Need to check afternoon sessions to see if I improved. Quote https://www.youtube.com/user/400superamerica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
