    Good luck mate. I'll finally be joining you for the first round with @peakperformancereviews. Sadly I haven't been able to make any of the testing sessions but looking forward to the season ahead!

    Love these types of films Pete 👍 you looked very smooth and fast even in the rain.

      Cheers Ian. They never do that well in terms of views but are great fun to make 😜

    Cripes Pete!! How did I miss this video?
    I looked at the lap times for this Ka and then compared them to when you had the Clio 182. You're running about 18 or 19 seconds slower in the Ka. But then the Clio was a more powerful beast. And... The Clio lap times were in a race and not in "practice".
    But I've checked my diary... And guess what? I'm free that Saturday so will see you at Donington.
    Oh! The weather looks good for Saturday too :-))...

      That would be great. Look forward to buying you a coffee. We are in Garage 12 👍

    Been waiting for this one! You`ve said it all.. smooth consistent and carry your speed thro` the corners, and you`ll be biting the heels of those pesky Porsches. Nice lines, bet you could drive Doni blindfolded by now???!!! Hope to come and watch on the 6th. Will say hi if I find your garage. Testing today at Castle Combe, my favourite circuit, in a Caterham

    More and more mini journeys to follow you on.. can’t wait to see the 5 hour race (live stream?...)
    Then all the other content with the building up to the GP3 build and collect. Exciting as any motor vlog channel :-)

    • @PeakPerformanceReviews
      @PeakPerformanceReviews 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      99crossy I think there will be a live stream, I’ll make sure I give Pete the details 👌👍

    Very cool video. Those Miata's were moving!

      They were quick 👍

    It makes sense that driving a small car like this teaches you to be more precise and consistent when you don't have the power to cover for any mistakes. I take it that this series is going to be single make or all cars from the same small class? Looking forward to the big day. April 6th is marked on my calendar!
    I could see (and hear) why you were only getting 17 mpg on the drive ... ;D
    Cheers, and stay well!

    • @PeakPerformanceReviews
      @PeakPerformanceReviews 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Frank McGorman yep all the same cars only, only difference is driver skill 👍 should be cracking fun :-) glad you’ll be watching on the 6th 😎

    Very well done. You kicked the rain top notch. Looked a great day. A little more forgiving than the Clio? Like ya said, smooth equated to speed. Nice one.

    • @PetrolPed
      @PetrolPed  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The Clio had more power to get you out of trouble but was much faster 😂

    We wish you the best of luck with the race, is their any website etc where we can watch the endurance race from. Have a fantastic race, drive hard, drive fast, but above all you drive safe.

    • @PetrolPed
      @PetrolPed  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      For video coverage I don't think so, but there will be a TSL timing screen you can watch 😬

    • @chantelleherne925
      @chantelleherne925 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hopefully @PeakPerformanceReviews crew will stream some social media live action during the day so keep an eye out for #enduroka 👌

  • @gavinivers8941
    @gavinivers8941 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great video.
    Car looks to have a bit of turn in under-steer. The answer maybe at the back....if you can get it to rotate a little on turn in it will give to some speed through the corner.

    • @PetrolPed
      @PetrolPed  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for the tip Gavin. We still have a little work to do on setup too. Really looking forward to race day 👍

  • @mattylf1

    Good luck with the racing and that trusty Ka!! I was interested in your comments on the Alfa on the way up to the circuit. I have to change my Discovery Sport after some problems and saw a Stelvio on Friday and thought it looked rather nice...but then found it was £79,000 which is a very bad thing for any Alfa!!...maybe when it is £29,000 it might be a good but brave choice perhaps!!!😀😀😀😀

    • @PetrolPed
      @PetrolPed  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Honestly one of the best all round cars I have driven so far. Mightly impressive performance. HUGELY fast off the line and brilliant round the bends. I had a little dice with a Lotus Elise this week...and won even through the twisty bits !

    • @HQBProductions
      @HQBProductions 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Petrol Ped That explains why the 19 plate one I saw was already covered in road spray and the wheels black with brake dust....clearly a lot of fast miles being covered and enjoyed! It was a dark grey one so not yours..I did wonder for a moment! Happy driving on this sunny day!! Richard😀😀😀😀

      Great intro to the series, looks like fun!
      The soundtrack from the Alfa is addictive, no wonder you were only getting 17mpg
