maybe I should start another thread as this one has gone into the engine deconstruction, but my data engineer just told me he got a decent lap from our rear facing camera of Andrew. He's loading it to youtube now. Its not the best lap for either of us. He hadn't turned up the boost yet, and I wasn't pushing on the banking or the infield. So its not exactly a "battle", but it atleast shows some of how well Andrew can throw the car around...

I'll post it as soon as I'm given the link...

As I said, this was practice. His car accelerates harder than the vid shows, nad mine corners and breaks harder than demonstrated. My guy labeled it as a battle when he posted it, which isn't really the case, but whatever. Enjoy...

lol I'll look for it. Coming December when I finish up the semester I am re-turboing my car if you want to pop by. Definitely need to do some show-and-tell with our toys.

Savington has a bunch of good youtube videos of him lapping.

The throttle on oversteer in Matt's car is insane.

I wonder if he was taping when he was chasing down the SC'd red NB at LS, were you Sav? That thing was dancing all over the track in front of you, should be some good footage if you have it.
