Spot on 65 Mat
Callum is a very good racer and of course was in compelte control of the car, but it was a track day where you can find all sorts of ability and equipment sharing the same bit of tarmac (not a test or race day) and i think he may have missed the Goltrack driver briefing!!!

I think his driving was relatively unusual for a track day, but fine. From the posts I thought I was going to see racing driver style passes on the inside under braking. He was massively restrained on that side and only took people on the left. Complete absence of mirror usage, esp from Mr Fezza and slow into corners make it look all a bit cosy.
This is why I like Paddock club days with RMA or test days. You pass either side like in normal racing and overtaking car uses common sense, other car sticks to its lines. Fair enough though, not the place for a complete novice. The cars in this video seemed better than novices, even if they appeared a bit slow; there again many people look slow compared to Callum who is a bit handy.

You can do most things on Paddock club days, but not on other RMA days I believe; this was the case in prior years at least. The idea is same as a test day (loosely) in that the responsibility is on the overtaking car to make a move that will stick without grossly hindering the car being overtaken. The car being overtaken should stick to lines and not try to do anything clever or unexpected.

If this is 9M's most recent creation, my understanding is that it is a RHD 993 RS shell that has had RSR/GT2 wheel extensions put on.
There is an article in Total 911, issue 46, about the build of a black RSR replica by 9M for a customer called "Capes". It's based on Turbo shell with a 438 bhp 9M motor with TBs. The reg is E3 RSR, I think it was at Oulton the other day. Callum is mentioned as Capes's driving mentor in the article. Capes is listed as having a CT, GT3 RS etc.

Does it matter what it is, not really,its a nice car and clearly what the owner wanted.The owner has a few toys and loves his porsches.
Alot of the parts are from a certain 993rs,but thats it.
Quite a few people think my rsr is a GT2 ,which is fine,because most dont know what it is,or that they even exist.The rsr as rsr says is built on a narrow body cup chassis,the arches are 25mm per side narrower and only runs 11 and 9 1/2 inch wheels etc
