The man who made the Aston Martin Valkyrie a record breaker #248

Dan Prosser and Andrew Frankel are joined by professional racing driver Darren Turner. A three-time Le Mans class winner with Aston Martin, Darren recently broke the production car lap record at Silverstone in a Valkyrie hypercar, lowering the bar by 10 whole seconds. Darren explains how the attempt compared to a GT3 qualifying lap, reveals how much quicker the track-only Valkyrie AMR Pro would be and talks about F1 star Nico Hulkenberg's remarkable day in that car. Darren also reflects on a long and very successful professional racing career that probably should never have happened.
