Default Passing everything on track - a quick "how to"

Dutch Supercar Challenge. Mixed bag of cars - and a BMW Touring car on what looks to be near enough to be the back row.

Watch it go! (and almost into the back of a Marcos @ 6:49!).

Also the bloke on the RHS, just wandering off the track as the lights go!

Nice grab of opposite at 4:37.



Hoping it's not a repost!

I`m guessing he`s normally a front runner, and was at the back of the grid for some infraction/technical issue in qualifying...

Too many open doors, and let-throughs, for it to be skill alone. The Marcos at 4:30 is the first to give him any `trouble`.

Still impressive commitment though, to give it full attack, as if there`s no-one else there!

What the hell was going on with some of the spoilers though? Particularly on the 3-series Compacts and Z-coupes...

And that`s one hell of a noisy gearbox, even for a straight-cut sequential!

He's definitely a front runner, isn't he. I hope he's got earplugs in - Ouch!

Sounds awesome!

Exactly the same as the 96 BTCC BMW's of Winklehock & Ravaglia

Ah, how could you have avoided this: ?

Sounds like the same box to me!

Interestingly, that's a 6m 50s lap of the 'Ring....
