      Pure automotive goodness. A quick calculation with the track length of 6.2km done in 1m48s gives an average speed of over 206km/h.

        Was even better to see (and hear!) in person Absolutely awesome to see the speed it could do down Conrod and hold through the Chase, made the V8 Supercar look like a slow road car!

          Hi That is fantastic. It would have been even better if the speed and gear number were shown. Still great though. Michael

                  Obviously Button was driving conservatively.

                  From ABC News: "It's always been a circuit I've wanted to drive and I wish I had more laps - I'd love to really find the limit of this place," Button said.

                  Can only wonder what times would be clocked once he'd found the limit...

                    Awesome.
                    If it was geared properly for the track and there was more time for set up and practice, I reckon 5 to 10 seconds more could be taken off that time.

                    He was on the rev limiter 1/3 of the way down conrod.

                      The australian GP should be held at Bathurst, it is the best we have in Australia and to see them at The mountain would be a spectical indeed to see.

                        I agree,
                        :mrgreen: :mrgreen: but perhaps its a little narrow to pass.
