Great day, seems like a lot of fun and the Exige is just an mazing track toy (I have one). Check your over reving and oversteering, looks you can be faster without over-using the car components (too hard on Revs, Gears and somewhat the steering), but love your pasion for racing!
Thanks ;) It's way faster in some cases to hit the rev limiter a short time (which is not overrevving) than making an upshift followed immediately by a downshift. Especially with the Exige engine (2ZZ-GE NA) which have a very narrow powerband. My hitting of the rev limiter is totally intentional.
That looks like the perfect track for your car. The speed differential between you and most of the other cars is pretty ridiculous. Well done although I would have been a little more cautious on some of those passes. I got a little nervous on a couple of them because it seemed like the other drivers didn't see you back there. :)
The S2K driver certainly didn't saw me but I expected that ;) I suppose I'm accustomed to high overtaking speeds with the hundreds of laps of the Nürburgring I've done.
Taurim Oh I know you're completely competent at overtaking folks at high speed, I've seen you do it for years! I was speaking of my own comfort level. The way we do driving events in Texas is a little different so we usually don't have big speed variance between cars in our timed sessions.
Dave Russell In some events cars are dispatched in 3 groups (power, driver experience...). In some others we don't have the right to overtake during braking or into corners. But this one was quite liberal : 24 cars on track at the same time and no other restriction.
C'est moi dans l Integra noire que tu suis. Désolé sur la fin, j'essayais de passer la Nissan blanche et voulait pas te gêner. J'ai essayé de te voir après coup, mais il y avait toujours beaucoup de monde autour de toi et ton Exige ;)

Jolie poursuite, dommage que je n'avais que mon mulet (la Legend Car), ce qui ne retire rien a notre battle. A bientot pour de nouveau fight ;)
C'était bien sympa, à bientôt ;)
yodalain77 Merci, superbe vidéo ;)

Effectivement, je ne t'avais pas vu ^^'
Nimo Racing Je m'y attendais un peu ;)
I have to say that you are a good driver, and as a fellow track day veteran I would just like to point out that you are over-revving quite a bit.
It's true, but it's the only way to make this little very peaky engine go ;)

Pas de problème, c'est aussi à celui qui veut doubler de se débrouiller pour le faire sans problèmes ;)
