I'm with Ben, I'd be getting your wheel alignment front and rear checked before going to the track again, if you have just a fraction of toe out on the back it will have a tendency to spin u, trust me I know :lol:

Ideal seems to be about a mm toe in either side on the rear, and a mm toe out either side on the front. I've found the FTO is naturally a bit taily in the rear though, I run the rear springs 5mm lower which helps a bit as well.

Looks like u were having fun out there, but yeah I wouldn't worry too much about that porsche, if he was on the money he'd be lapping u every 4 or 5 laps :lol:

Just watched u're vids and not a bad effort for first time at the track. U need to work on turn 7 and the left onto the back straight. Otherwise not too bad ;)

yeah those tight ones were a pain but i did 4 sessions and they were my first 2 on video but i got the hang of the tighter corners, i think im a bit too agressive sometimes and i need to do a lot cleaner laps
