Yeah that was pretty funny watching how bad the drivers were. Though I think I'd have some trouble the first few times...then again, hopefully this is their first time

That would be an example the exact OPPOSITE lines you should drive on the track. Actually...near the end, that grey WRX had decent lines...which is why the GT-R couldnt pass it in the turns, he could only make a pass when his HP came into play....ridiculous!!

yeah, the WRX drivers were bad, but the driver of the camera car (an R33 Skyline GTR) wasnt exactly skilled [/understatement].

He drove a SKYLINE???? Holy begeezes....

Wut's that going on when he shifts? It's like the car is shaking during each shifts.... and when he gets near a corner to slow down and down shifts.. the rear tires slow down and even chirps....

God.. how can a Skyline driver be so bad..... hahaha.. really.. someone hand me some tissues now....

In a few laps, that is the most off road excursion I have seen in my whole year of track days.

I think the WRX guys just needed to stay in the grass.

Didn't I say Aussie drivers sux? Now that they think that they have some 200hp powered car, they head for the tracks trying to be some race driver or think they can be and shit happens ... Hmm, this is practically going on at every race track in Australia with such idiotic behaviors.

Watch it Takashi. I'll take you on any day

Remember, I can equal your Wakefield time for an S2000 on 540S in my stock WRX on RE010s Just wait until I get into the 1:11s on 540S, still stock

I think the standard of track driving at club level in Australia is particularly high in general.

Maybe it was raining? There can't be any other explanation for the ease at which AWD vehicles were unable to stay on the track at low speeds.

Really...OMG...maybe I'll get a junker to track after watching this video!
