i8 goodwood track drive
I had an invite to a track day at Goodwood. My i man at Broadoak BMW Adam doubted an i8 would be available for track work
But On the tarmac was all the M models and an i8 I had 9 laps of the circuit in the i8 (3 laps x 4 available in any model, missing out other models on purpose) and finished with 3 laps in a M6, I am seriously impressed with the i8. It is an amazing machine. It apexed corners and allowed me to power on instantly. The flat attitude of the car left it planted to the tarmac with NO issues. If anyone doubts this cars ability to grip When I switched to the M6 it was like turning in on a soggy pudding!!!!!! Not only did it roll a heap more. The lag in putting the power back on was very evident. Of note it never showed any charge. Obviously when being hammered the "kers" is being used completely. The hill climb in the 2 series was also great fun too. Great day. As an even bigger bonus we did 120 miles on £18 of fuel to get home |
