From Scott:
"It’s a favourite among many drivers and in our opinion one of the best circuits in the UK. I have to admit I have a soft spot for this track as it’s my home circuit and I also held the outline lap record here before the layout changes in 2010.
We’re going to use some onboard footage from a race I competed in earlier in the year in a Radical sports car. This offers a great view of the circuit and with the data logging system we use you can also view throttle and brake position in the car, allowing a real insight inside the driving technique.
So without further ado let’s begin by taking a look at a complete lap before we dive into more details and break down each corner individually."
