My Brands DD PB went from 1.02.469secs to 58.673secs, so who knows may get into the 1.01's
Optimistic when the lap record is just under 1m03s.

With these tyres I reckon the lap record will go.... I may be optimistic with timings by the sound of it but hey......Positive thinking this year and sure I will beat my PB by at least 1.5secs so perhaps 1.03's then

I thought Brands would have gone (we did get very close), but I would be quite surprised if Mallory goes. Brands has quite a few high load corners where grip counts. Where as Mallory, apart from gerrards, has corners that are quite short and swift where any extra grip might not make a massive difference. I suppose it depends on the weather and the new surface. My prediction would be 1m03s.

checked my times today from 2008 - 1'10 was the quickest with 1'12 kind of average. If I can get into1'06s I'll be delighted, regardless where that leaves me!

Agree with Mark - some optimistic views on laptimes

Sam West time was super quick and on old Diablos which seem to give simiar performance to these new ones (if you look at Brands) and it will take a fair effort to beat it.

1.02.825 2nd Race and 1.03.057 first so predictions not too far adrift
1.02.819 for Phil so both of us within 1/10 of the record I think.

It could have gone Ron.

It could have... But unfortunately I couldn't get out there
