he might have been indicating because the evo was on his right hand side and he indicates right as to say'' im going there'' and boots it, but when hes had enough he indicates left.

If you indicate to the right on track it means im pulling over to let you past. doing it and booting is is just a waste of time

brakes no set up

Its quite obvious by the vid that the yellow evo is faster lap for lap. It doesnt take great skill to drive flat out straight.

Are you confuzzled with your lefts and rights?

The pit entry/track exit is on the left after the hairpin.

You let faster cars pass you on the left, after signalling over to the right. He was indicating to let the evo by then just racing her up the straight. Not a nice thing to be doing on trackdays.

Whats the brake setup on it

Only braking one side, at those speeds, will spin the car round in a flash.
