Silverstone organised trackday on the GP circuit configuration, fantastic weather for October, great selection of cars and a very well run day, albeit very expensive.
This is my quickest lap of the earlier in the day before lunch with a passenger, my lines improved later but I never really got a full lap without traffic later in the day. Highlight of the day as always was taking people for passenger laps, if you ever see an Atom/Nomad on track and have a full face helmet, ask for some laps.
A better driver with more confidence will be much quicker, at a guess a sub 2:20 ?
No problems with noise trackside with the normal exhaust, there is no static noise test at Silverstone, marshalls were very good and advised that if the noise camera was tripped they would have a discussion and figure out possible mitigation.
Laps timed via Race Chrono Pro on IOS using iPhone GPS, GoPro Hero 8 Black, apologies for no image stabilisation and yet again forgetting a wind sock and yes I need a better microphone solution. Guages added via dashware.
GoPro harwdare is great, GoPro software is awful.
Now I need a better GPS logger and an OBD dongle for accelerator and brake, also a fool proof way to combine them all in a video, frankly GoPro Quik is a terrible product ..
