Mk2 Golf GTI 8v / XR2 / GT5 Turbo - Onboard Anglesey Circuit Trackday

Описание: Some onboard footage from a great session at Anglesey with some added drift footage ;)

Had a great day, with the car running faultlessly all day. Every session I was trying to catch the red XR2 with little success, he was flying! and I was about the same pace as the GT5 Turbo. I'd been setting up the suspension all day, tweaking it after every session, after not being too happy at Cadwell.

I'd also changed my tyre pressures, I usually run 30psi hot all round, but upped that to 32 hot all round, which made a drastic difference!! Much less tyre squeal, better turn in and overall faster.

This footage is from the final session of the day where I was finally very happy with the set up of the car. I managed to pass both the GT5 turbo and the Xr2. Great to meet both the drivers also!
