I don't want to be rude Stuart but sub 10 mins with 200bhp should be a piece of cake. I can't prove it or anything but I timed my friend Dave(92 civic 140bhp) while sat at the start and he was back around 9 mins or just over. he knows the track like the back of his hand all be it vurtually. Brembo four pots will make a big difference to the first half of your lap and of course a clear run which im yet to have too.
I think i would have needed a change of underwear too at brunnchen too,
@Heatofthedragon This was my 2nd lap EVER around there, the car is carrying a 14st driver and 17st passenger. My mx6 is 18 years old, theres no way it has 200bhp. With a clear run and the car slightly better prepared i'm sure I could do 9 minutes vaguely like Daves Civic. Tyres are my main problem, theyre crap.
Nice one Stu !! Hope you had a good day, Car sounds nice, just like mine! We are gonna have to meet up for a track day soon................ Bet your arse was shitting it on that spin!
hell yeah, me and paul did a proper ploppy pants! Definately got to get together chap. My new mx6 ZE is getting a full rebuild at the moment then i'm going megasquirt plus I'm hoping to fit coilovers and Brembo 4 pot calipers in the next couple of weeks. Shout me up on mazdamad and have a look at the pics
Thanks Paula, it was an amazing experience and we cant wait til next year. If you look in the distance just before the spin I had kept up with the Aston and Audi S4 all the way round so next year i'm aiming for sub 10 minutes, Clarkson style!
My new favorite video on youtube. Glad to see another Mazda MX6 owner and wow it sounds fantastic!

Hey, it's me, A Simple Mx6 off of the forums. I must say, I envy you for being able to drive that. What other courses have you drove prior to this..?
