This is in car footage of Rafal's E55 driving around a road circuit. I'm in the passenger seat with the camera.
There are 4 consecutive videos because putfile.com wont host files greater than 10MB. Enjoy!!

Max G-force on the Contis at full side drift was 1.0 G.
Max speed down the straight (fairly short) before the hair-pin left hander: 185kph / 115mph.
As the attached pictures show, these two E55's are well matched and changed the lead several times. The silver one (mine) was a fraction faster down the straight, maybe due to my top-end advantage with the K & N filters?
Next time we will both wear decent race tires, the Contis are totally shot!
