    That was cool, but after watching the MINI WRC clip, that Steve posted yesterday, with the front wheels brushing the edge of a cliff, everything else seems a bit tame to me now. :lol:

    Not sure but that may have been his record breaking run (unofficial) on Bathurst. Like the planned Hamilton/Stewart F1/NASCAR car swap (don't know where or when that will happen), this was during the Button/Lowndes F1/V8 Supercar swap. If I remember right, the official lap record Button beat was Lowndes'...

    Button enjoys historic Bathurst run (crash.net)

    Great videos, thanks for sharing them guys. I'd love to see an F1 race on that track! It would be spectacular. :D

    That long uphill would certainly test the engine. Even more so then Interlagos. And I am sure that downhill wouldn't be to gentle on the brakes, either.
