    Mad respect for that save at 06.00! Fantastic battle between you and #87

    Someone linked this in a forum thread and it is hands-down the most exciting bit of in-car footage I've seen in a while.
    Great driving, great circuit, great battle, would "OH YEAH! OH NO!" again. 10/10

    I thought it was all over at 6:08 this is excellent driving. Mastering that line with finesse

    Great fun and great driving. Lovely engine tone and noise of the straight gears in the ‘box. Shame the imp driver in front held you up.

    Enjoyed this so much I had to watch it again. - I've been to Cadwell a number of times over the years, although that was for the bikes!

    All I was thinking all through that race was, did you build both these engines? as you could not get a closer race if you tried! It was interesting to see the slight difference in driving styles where you caught up on both the down hill and uphill sections and he had the slightest of advantage on the flat!

    That thermometer was reading hotter, and hotter, and hotter, as the race went on. Another few minutes and that imp would have been toast.

    6.04 in the video was a bit of a late braking pass immediately followed by brown trousers...

    bluey focused his attention on his rear hence the increasing gap between them and that cortina

    Jeez, you two were really having at it! Thoight you got by twice only for the other imp to fly back into shot. Engine sounds horny, but should those downshifts sound so harsh?

    hi andy im running a ginetta g15 in the u s a with a so called c r gearbox ,but i noticed that you when shifting lost between 1500 and 2000between shift are you using a dog box , i loose nearly 3 k so the motor bogs in top , just trying to get some info , cheers

    • @betacam235
      @betacam235 ปีที่แล้ว

    • @johnmoncrieff3034
      @johnmoncrieff3034 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It is called taking the racing line which he is fully entitled to do as he is clearly in front!

    • @alancollard8939
      @alancollard8939 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@johnmoncrieff3034 its called defensive driving , blocking , the second could catch the first every time even when the mustamg got by, and you cant call moving across the track on corner entry the racing line , imps are tail happy , by the way i have raced at cadwell since 1966 up to 2003 , i woul still be racing there if i hadnt made a stupid move to the u s a

    Thos Imps need a little more horsepower and probably weight over the drive wheels. Add bigger brakes and they would catch those Mustangs!

    The downchanges are painful. Practice braking and blipping the throttle with the outside of your foot on a piece of quiet road - please.
