    Bro, I agree that the Euro car looks better and they are in original factory spec which should drive better and hold better value.

    My cousin told me that the Countach is currently undergoing restoration again as the previous workshop he used before opening Exquisite Marques did not do a good job. However, they have been really busy with customers cars lately so his car is delayed! Customer cars get the priority! As for his BB512, I think his doing up the clutch or something.

    The Cayenne with the Magnum badge is modified by Techart. My cousin told me that there are quite a number of Cayenne owners in KL who upgraded their cars with Techart parts but are not happy. So they end up keeping the Techart body kit but changing 'performance' components with Exquisite Marques.

    You guys must had a great track day!

    What happen to those tyres? Punished from aggesive driving?

    I also see the Exquisite Marques boys at work!

    Jon, they make a good pit stop crew clearing all to stones out from your car!

    Yeah bro, those belong to Kin, they basically blew on him from excessive punishment. Lucky he had his road tires and wheels there, and even if not.... Exquisite could help out...

    Exquisite thought well ahead. Pat even brought a single spare set of rear and front wheels and tires in case of any tire failures. And they fixed a mates GT3CS on the spot. Now thats what I call a fantastically organised track day....

    put aside the lines for a moment, just remember the threshold of each turn and the aggression. that’s how hard you could push once you understand the principles. as for the lines, mine and yours would be pretty similar except for t2 into t3 and t9 into t10. and… like i said bud, track days are the only truth; everything else, in the context of driving, is bovine crap :)

    Mate! You are right... just watched my vid.... I go to 2nd around turn 14 as well.... sheesh good to know I am getting the right gears at least hahaha.... whats funnier is that I didn't even remember I was using second until I reviewed the video footage.... man I love my little Hero HD camera.... been watching the video non stop. Ron came over today and reviewed the footage as well... good fun!!! Very clearly braking way too early still and not flooring hard enough hence giving away tons of wasted tarmac (something to do with m slightly fragile state and errr lack of sleep from the night before).... will show you vids over coffee...

    and yes the PBox tell even more.... but having difficulty dowloading the darn data to my mac.... arghhh

    yeah mate.... loved the ride in your car.... the way you seemed to have utter clarity of exactly what was going on and what lines were best for your car...loved turn 9... "patience, patience, NOW" and even when you decided to try something a little nasty on 12 and 13 on the second lap and the car got hairy you just caught it easy.... thats what I want... to be able to push the limits and be able to catch it.... still driving way too within my limits but gradually bumping myself...

    The problem with the TT is that on turn 9...there is tremendous lag... at times I may even t go down to 1st to power out. In this corner, I manually shift down and change up.

    The Lambo manual is probably the easiest to use. Clack clack! Very smooth never jams! Unlike the Testas and the 355s where 3rd to 2nd was always suspect.
