Lotus Exige S 'Ring Lap
 
Spotted this and thought it was a pretty good onboard:

Some great reactions from the driver in the latter half of the lap.

Wow very fast, looks like a lot of fun and he's a very good driver. I think he's done that once or twice before you know :whistle:

Superb lap. Clearly a very good driver and the car has a massive amount of lateral grip, very impressive.

7:53 for a full lap, is probably about 7:30 BTG :o

:10:

Comments on youtube, mixed opinions on his ability. Guess the negative ones have never driven the Ring?

Theres a few bad downshifts and a couple of places where he's on the wrong line but can't really criticise when none of us could do any better!

Just the usual youtube trolls i expect ;)

He doesn't make full use of his gearbox, shifting looks to be cumbersome at points, perhaps the cars box is a bit of a dog! (no pun intended) At some points during the video he clearly finds an extra use for the shift leaver as a brace for his leg due to the insane lateral G! ;) and the fact he is quite a tall fella for a little lotus.
