Hi,

As a few here may already know we run a successful Time Attack car here in the UK, currently we are documenting our progress on our blog at www.team-zen.co.uk and have started to get some more pics and videos online.

Here is some in-car footage of Matt Allison driving, from Sunday's round at Silverstone on the National Circuit.
Team ZEN Time Attack, Silverstone Round 3, 31st May 2009
It starts off on warmup lap(s), but you'll notice the change when Matt starts pushing!

Enjoy.

sweet video...

car looks really pushy on entry and mid corner.

I wish the us teams would post more incar stuff like this.

Bah, I didn't managed to get any decent pics of the Zen car from that event; granted I was mainly trying to snap a shot of the Clark Impreza all day (and only got 2 decent shots)

Anyway, awesome in-car video :)

If you're referring the odd line through the complex before opening it up on the curve that leads to the start/finish straight, it's deliberate. Although later in the video the tyres are past there best, due to the R888s and the warm weather (ambient 26ºC, track temp 38ºC) so we find that in such cases you need to cool it down for a few laps then put another hot lap in.

Copse corner (fast 90 right at end of start/finish straight) has an entry speed of about 96mph.
