Thanks Adam for doing this video , it was special when Karl looked at the car for the first time , We have become great mates and buying the car was as much for him as it was for me . i cant wait to see him race it again , and to share the drive with him will be special for me . and thanks as always to everyone for there very kind comments, they are very much appreciated.
Great to see your enthusiasm come over on the film Paul. I believe that if Karl had had a more competitive and funded car, he would have dominated the class. Having said that, there is always something magical about being the underdog who fights for their place.
th-cam.com/video/SYT7GGwAxB8/w-d-xo.html&feature=share&si=EMSIkaIECMiOmarE6JChQQ Paul, i thought you, Adam and Karl might be interested in this, from about 10.30 onwards
Karl was some driver in this. I had no idea watching back then as a kid that he was so hampered by budget constraints and had those limitations in the build. You'd never have known sometimes watching him. Always had a soft spot for that livery too, was just a bit different.
Genuinely feel emotional for the fella we all no that love for something that gives u so much car, dog, ect not always positive at the time but with hindsight it's the one we all say "what a thing" thank u fellas appreciate it... 👍👊✌
Touring cars were so exciting back then and incredible to watch. It was more about driver talent than electronics / aerodynamics and flappy paddle gear shifts.
What a video , I love these kind with all the history and old stories , the best era off touring cars definitely, black lines everywhere over steer heaven 👍
Karl 'Rally Suspension' Jones take a bow a brilliant video Adam a real insight into a proper racer who loves it up the inside in the wet I would love to see these two race competitively with Grp A suspension, Paul is the time keeper of The BTCC Cosworth history for sure love his knowledge and Passion.
Adam i tell you this content has me absolutly hooked from start to finish pal, i watch and like all your uploads but especialy lately some absolute class material buddy, spot on mate keep up the good the work 👌🏾👊🏾
One of your best videos Adam. You did exactly the right thing, set the camera rolling and stand back, to let the memories and stories come flooding back. #manandmachine
I'd be pretty sure that this video explains why the value of the road cars has increased so much and is most likely to have added another £50k to current prices. These cars are epic and the history phenomenal.
Brilliant video Adam, you can see Karl's mind working overtime with all the memories flooding back, and Paul looks really chuffed with Karl's reaction to seeing his old car. Can't wait to see it on track with the pair of them. Keep up the great work, well done.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I could watch these vids of Paul talking all day long. Great to see Karl talking about his old car and will look forward to him getting back behind the wheel. Keep up with the good work Adam 👍🏻
Great video Adam.What I really liked was you just filmed Karl and Paul chatting away,which was very interesting to listen too.Then right at the end of the video you pop back in to thank the 2 lads.At this point,I'd actually forgotten it was your video in the 1st place!!! Keep up the great work!!
Adam mate this is fxxxxxg gold to me my first touring car race was aged 8 in 1980 watching John Cleland in an escort at ingleston in Scotland then got hooked and followed the 90s and 00s at knockhill
I like all of your videos you put out,but the ones that feature Paul with his cars,motorcycles,bmx's & the stories that go with them are definetly my favorites.Great video as usual & to see the expression on Karl's face when he sat in the car.You can see the memories flooding back.Thanks for sharing.
12:25 it’s because you then turn from your elbows instead of your shoulders. If your too far back you can only get 1/2 a turn either way before your forearms touch each other, when your closer in you can get nearly 3/4 of a turn each way without taking your hands off the 3&9 positions on the wheel
Adam these videos you do with Paul are 100% awesome.. they really are insightful and bordering on documentary level. I can't wait for the next fact filled episode featuring Paul and his car collection.
Hi Adam, Paul & Karl, What a brilliant video guy's, could have listened for hour's literally.!! Car actually looks in brilliant condition for its age, you could see Karl look at something and the memories flood back. The car has so much history it's great viewing, thank you all for 100% viewing pleasure. Alex.
Once again top content lad. I’m sure you know how lucky you are to be mr 500’s mate. You jammie sod ha! Im sure I speak for every true fan of yours and Paul’s when I say thanks for getting us access to mr big fin himself. I also need to say your none mr Paul 500 big fin linfoot videos are top notch as well lad. Keep up the good work mate. Your smashing it as far as I’m concerned 👍👍👍
Wiked video Adam. Being Welsh im a massive fan of karl Jones's .Hearing him talk about the car and remembering his most special moments init was epic!! These cars are so special. It must have bean unforgettable racing them back in the day . Thanks to Paul Adam and karl for taking the time to make this video 👍👍👍
Brilliant vid again mate. Paul is unreal like. I'd love to see you do a Paul biography video, like 45 minutes of how he got started and run through what he was doing over the last few decades. Dude probably doesn't want to come across as billy big bollocks but I reckon wed all love to see it.
You can see that in his flash backs he was there in the moment remembering exactly how it was,class.I wonder what he drives as a daily and if he gave it some beans on his way home thinking about it 🤣🤣
what an absolute great great youtube video. seeing the emotion and enthusiasm in a typical group of people hanging out and talking cars and memories, much better than any tv programme. well done ADAM ! and thank you
I was thinking of Pauls mind working overtime gaining an insight how to approach the project and how much of a treasure chest of a drivers inside information and memories will add to the end result. Really interesting combination, thanks Adam. 🤔👍👌
Brilliant as always paul and Adam such decent and respectful gentlemen love these vids thanks so much for sharing and making the effort for us all to enjoy
💯💯 What a brilliant video guy's could have listened for hour's literally, lovely hearing the stories from a genuine bloke Paul is a top bloke and Karl is a hero Thanks Adam
I had two Merkur XR4ti's back in the 90's and would love to have one again and build it up for a weekend and track day car. It was difficult getting racing coverage of RS500's back in the 80's here in the USA. I am so thankful for youtube and you guys revisiting these amazing vehicles.
How did Paul linford end up doing what he does. Remember as a teen reading fast Ford and performance Ford and the word btcc spec engine Rs 50p was the words of dreams for me..
For me when u u fellas do these videos together genuinely can't stop smiling and seeing this gives the history of the cars I love and still at 45 years old still day dream about. Thank u all genuinely for this coz at mo like many I am struggling, so thank u for my buzz today. 1 question did all the Rs500 run dog box's? Keep up good work. ✌& respect frm the South. Sid
Let's be honest. I would imagine this guy can drive a car. All the new cars anyone can get in and go fast. Try it with one of these and you will come unstuck very quickly.

Paul, i thought you, Adam and Karl might be interested in this, from about 10.30 onwards
I've chistened you RS Paul you a legend of my generation go on pal
Karl was some driver in this. I had no idea watching back then as a kid that he was so hampered by budget constraints and had those limitations in the build. You'd never have known sometimes watching him. Always had a soft spot for that livery too, was just a bit different.
Paul should do an audiobook on this very subject (I’d buy it) what a personable & knowledgeable gent he is.
Great video Adam 👍
"the older I get the faster I was". Cracking piece Adam
Genuinely feel emotional for the fella we all no that love for something that gives u so much car, dog, ect not always positive at the time but with hindsight it's the one we all say "what a thing" thank u fellas appreciate it... 👍👊✌
Touring cars were so exciting back then and incredible to watch. It was more about driver talent than electronics / aerodynamics and flappy paddle gear shifts.
Utter pleasure. And Karl uses my kinda language 😂
Great that you melted into the background and left them to chat Shows the respect you have for them
Nice sit down and enjoy another good video 👍
Best video by far Adam. Would be good in the future to get some of the old drivers on to share their stories of the best era of Touring Cars. Cheers.
Fantastic story! Love the history on this Cosworth! Great reunion!! Fantastic!!
What a video , I love these kind with all the history and old stories , the best era off touring cars definitely, black lines everywhere over steer heaven 👍

One of your best videos Adam. You did exactly the right thing, set the camera rolling and stand back, to let the memories and stories come flooding back. #manandmachine
Loved this, looking forward to seeing it done and Karl taking it out on track 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 thanks Adam

Thats the best one so far for me (from pauls garage) To see man and machine re united and the emotions that came, absolutely fantastic 👍👍
Wow 👏 what a fantastic video Loved it Adam. Amazing stories!! Can't believe Karl had rear brakes on the front 😳 but was so competitive!!!
Great video Adam.What I really liked was you just filmed Karl and Paul chatting away,which was very interesting to listen too.Then right at the end of the video you pop back in to thank the 2 lads.At this point,I'd actually forgotten it was your video in the 1st place!!! Keep up the great work!!
If Paul's in the video you just know its gonna be a belter... CheeRS Adam !!!
This is amazing Adam, Paul & Karl forgot they were even on camera genuine nice guys just talking cars what more could you want perfection 🙌👌
Adam mate this is fxxxxxg gold to me my first touring car race was aged 8 in 1980 watching John Cleland in an escort at ingleston in Scotland then got hooked and followed the 90s and 00s at knockhill
Karl is proper buzzing Adam big respect to Paul and yourself for sharing this amazing
Another cracking video here and very decent of Karl to agree to appear on camera to share his memories.

I smiled the hole way through this. Real men raced in this era. Wicked video Adam.
I remember watching these races with my grandad wheres time gone. Nice video Adam
12:25 it’s because you then turn from your elbows instead of your shoulders. If your too far back you can only get 1/2 a turn either way before your forearms touch each other, when your closer in you can get nearly 3/4 of a turn each way without taking your hands off the 3&9 positions on the wheel

Racing in those slippery conditions is like trying to drive on a Butcher's Block as Dick Johnson used to say..
Brilliant vid again mate.

I have thought of something similar Steve.
You can see that in his flash backs he was there in the moment remembering exactly how it was,class.I wonder what he drives as a daily and if he gave it some beans on his way home thinking about it 🤣🤣
