GT40 racing at Phillip Island

Not sure of the owner or any history about the car, but I thought I would share. Best part is right at the end.

YouTube - GT40 racing at Phillip Island

Anyone know of who this is?

If you like a bit of humour how come you don't laugh at the KIWI jokes I send you?

Re: GT40 racing at Phillip Island

Notice the two hands tugging down one side of the steering wheel on bends. It certainly appears to have heavy steering, or very strong self-centering.

Smile Re: GT40 racing at Phillip Island

Pete - I don't laugh at the kiwi jokes coz they're not funny.
Dalton - Yes the 2 handed technique was due to heavy steering.I have reduced the scrub radius and this has lightened the steering considerably.Next time I'm back at the Island I'll video again to show a much better hand position on the steering wheel.
