Thought i'd share this on here, not one of my usual close racing or 'incident' vidoes but it was a VERY IMPORTANT lap as it won this years Time Attack Championship for the driver ...

This is onboard with Jimmy White as he sets a laptime 3 secs quicker than his Championship rival and pre-race Championship leader, in an 600bhp RX7. This nets Jimmy the 2011 Title.

Had a few comments on this video that the car sounds more like a 'sewing machine' LOL so have posted a video from the training day before which is what it REALLY sounds like inside the car (was using my Video system).

That sounds awesome! Do you know how much power it has?

mighty impressive bit of driving if true.

Yes, just got a reply from Jimmy saying the same thing. Thats at the flywheel. ALso, the RX7 he beat was running 700bhp!! talk about giant killing

That VBox overlay on the original video is appalling, MaxxUK's is much better!

265bhp

That thing must handle like an f1 car

Nice whine from the supercharger!

This only increases my need to have a supercharged vx220 on my drive next

Looks like a quality drive - is it me or is his shifting quite slow?
