A Few More Laps of Knockhill

Post by evilally »

I've had this car since new and have been ragging it round tracks ever since. Nothing has fallen off (yet). Superb Renault build quality?

Good work. It looks like there's one set of bends that makes you a bit nervous about getting it dead right - is that the case?

Which ones mate? First time I'd done this track in reverse, which more or less means it might as well be a completely new track altogether. Lots to tighten up, lots more speed to be found!

I've driven Knockhill in my old MX5. That's really weird going round it backwards though. I think addo is referring to the section from Brabham through the Chicane and the drop down to Butchers and McinTyre that you're being a bit cautious. I don't blame you really, IIRC it might be a litle off-camber there in place
