Nice video but pity we don't get to see more of the road...

I am surprised you leave the box in auto mode and it looks like you leave all the electronics ASR/ESP on. Have you tried to drive with left foot braking? I drive this way each time I blow the cobwebs out of the engine and road permitting

I would love to be in the heads of those BMW M3 drivers when all of a sudden a W202 Mercedes with fender flares was right on their backside. You know you're booking it around there when you don't get passed even once over an entire lap. It seems like even when I see some really fast cars do laps around there on video, there is always someone faster. Thank you for sharing and allowing us to live vicariously through you

Now that's soooo much better! The vehicle is much more planted than before, with very little roll on the front.
Good job indeed.
