GT MK IV posts the first sub-2:00 GT car lap of COTA

[treynor]

I just got back from the Multimatic MK IV delivery / track day at COTA and I'm still grinning from ear to ear. Driving the MK IV for my first time today, I set - shattered, really - the COTA GT car lap record by 1.5 2 seconds! The MK IV is superlative - friendly, communicative, and absolutely absurdly fast. I can't say enough good things about it.

High quality onboard video here

VBOX with telemetry.

Enjoy!

Multimatic had to love that they had a buyer capable and willing to put the car thru its paces. Great job.

Is that the speedometer on the top left of the dash screen? Is it in metric…? All that gear whine is intoxicating.

Has to be. Saw about 180mph on the straight if I'm not mistaken since 300kph is 186.

I will have a video with telemetry presently once the Multimatic engineers send it my way. Enjoy a crappy gopro video in the meantime!

You'll need to do it again next week... haha

Holy crap that's quick... I think the first and last turns cost you a 1:58 though.

I freak myself out in the big rig sometimes when I’m going 120 in Canada and forget it’s in km.

That's just driving fast. The car let me know what's going on with plenty of warning.

Right, I was just saying how fast the lap was even with the slide.

Ben - could we get some pics or videos outside of the car please?

Also, do you need a lifestyle manager? A 50 year old son? BFF?

Are you ready to get a good weinering by Ben in your own car?

Literally what I messaged him yesterday haha I told him that my ego was saying not to let him drive my car...but my brain was telling me it would only help me get faster haha

I'll never forget the ride you gave me in the Mk II. How many seconds faster at COTA is the Mk IV than the Mk II?

Is this the same kind of car as the one at MM that was just posted a short time ago. It was a interview of one guy explaining the car.
