This is probably the only video around showing how to shift in a Skip Barber Formula. I wasn't able to find any information whether this car has paddle shifters, H-pattern or sequential shifter. It looks like sequential, with manually actuated clutch ;pedal.
T16 is a tricky one, quite hard to get right. I wasn't the best guy there, but for the exit curb of 16, if you are going to use any of it, just use all of it. That curb is less bouncy on the outer edge than in the middle. Hope this helps!
nice driving! Just quick question does gearbox allow clutchless down shift? And car is on road tyres? how do you like the car compare to other formula cars? Thanks!
No, for these cars, a heel&toe downshift is necessary, with just a lift on upshift. The car is on street tires, so it does slide around to teach you the basics of car control. Obviously, other formula cars may be faster but skip barber is not simply any easier. Slower speed is more reaction time, but get it wrong and it will punish you.
I agree it would be good to see you in F1
Haha, thanks for the kind words! I will be @ Sebring in about a month, trying my hardest to get another win!

great lap,this is legendary circiut .would be good to see sebring in f1 calendar.
I hope so too, but it's probably too bumpy and not enough safety run-off for something that fast... Like you said, legendary circuit nonetheless!

The fastest time from qualifying was actually set by me, a 2:27.752
