Jense screams around Bathurst

A view from his nosecone. At ~1:14 you can hear a chirping. I presume this is his inside tire lifting off the pavement.

Check it out:

With that thread title, and the fact that today is April 1st, I was expecting something just a bit different.

Glad it wasn't though, that was a great video. Hearing tires chirping is a lot more interesting than when birds do it.

I got promoted.

Anyway, back on topic. What an awesome video. I read that Button only did a couple of laps and said that if he got more familiar with the track, he could probably do a 1:30. They don't make race courses like that anymore.
