Gavan Kershaw takes us on a hot lap of Hethel

Good one!

Those guys that drive Hethel must be something else in the rain. I've never seen a vid with the course dry.
The 2-11 going sideways under control is indeed a thing of beauty, not to mention a seriously high chuckle factor.
Thanks for posting.

Always neat to see lotus vids - thanks.

Since I'm such a geek, did anyone else notice that Gavin's(?) helmet has "Meaden" on the side? Is the driver actually Kershaw or is it Richard Meaden the automotive journalist?

I must have been the fortunate then, my laps around Hethel last summer during the Lotus 7 50th were on a very hot dry day. The stock Elise around that track is just awesome.

Yup. I think you're right - the "2008 Fahrer" sticker on the side of the helmet is probably from his racing the AM at the 24 of the 'Ring.

Another geek moment but I think that number plate and colour scheme is the N/A 211 press car.

That vid brings back some memories.

Thanks!
