really interesting to see the apex speed comparison between the touring car and the bike..

only one or two corners were the touring car significantly quicker. I guess on a longer more open track the bike would be even further ahead as it's was only the low speed corners where the outright grip of the touring car made it faster..

We'll just ignore the fat bloke in the McLaren at the back..   :rofl:

I was genuinely surprised by the outcome of this - it pissed off my sports car driving mates when I posted it on Facebook!

Agreed, I guessed BTCC car by a whisker over the McLaren then the BSB a second or so off the pace.

In my defense I thought the Rockingham infield would be a bit more naggery than it was which would have put the BTCC car closer to the bike but still way off in my guestimate!
