shout out to the guys who brought the super sized cardboard cutout of Gordie's head and the regular sized one of Jimmy's
Gordie is an absolute unit. That Jimmy is anywhere near him is a testament to how talented he is too. Congrats boys!
He’s doing great. Having a fast am driver is a blessing to a pro. Very impressed with how little time he’s had👍
@@gordiemutchmotorsport105 Solid stance, "Two men on a ladder, one hanging from the 6th rung and the other from the 4th, who is higher? Most would answer the one on the 6th rung, but it's more a question of in which direction they are moving and how quickly"
Keep climbing that ladder Jimmy!
@@ericmullen14 you both said it so well! This single video is all you need as proof. How far has Jimmy come since last year?! The confidence (Q1 being the 2nd fastest am qualifier, when the rain came down he knew what to do) is the big one, and this paring brings that out in both of them. With that confidence and experience comes maturity, and all of this seems to bring out a real hunger to win. It’s amazing to watch!
Gordie is so talented. I get the feeling that he’s going to grow out of this series, probably by next year.
Just out of curiosity, where do you think he could go? F3? GT4?
edit: assuming sponsorship isn't a massive problem
@@basilavenue7719 I think with a Fanatec sponsorship it wouldn't be unreasonable to see him in the British GT Championship or even the IGTC. GT4 would be a bit of a sidegrade when the Praga Cup cars are already GT3 speeds.
@@basilavenue7719 No idea. I think the most important thing is a series with larger grids and more depth of talent, even if that means not necessarily getting into a faster car. GT3 cars are a little faster than the Praga, depending on the track, but it may be difficult for him to get a GT3 seat right away
Thanks dude, can confirm next year will be big for me. Can’t share any more than that. ;)
@@gordiemutchmotorsport105 open wheel, single seater or sports car? 😯 Wouldn't going to a heavier car with ABS be a bit of a downgrade? (In terms of driving, not pay. ) Grats either way mate, you deserve it.
People in the stream were saying "Jimmy's slow", but we then found out that you'd been stroking it home.
anyone not trolling knew it was either car issues or eaking the time out. The stream is just full of trolls.
Trolls be trolls. Jimmy is always stressing that he is the celeb/amateur driver paired with a pro driver by the Praga team and that he is still learning every day. That he actually has the pace he has with such little real life racing experience is pretty amazing.
I don't think anyone with half a brain actually thought he was slow
I mean, he was increasing the gap for the first few laps
@@Madagon367 He's doing so well.
Stroking to Jimmy's skillz
This video shows how much faster Jimmy has gotten irl (constant challenging for wins), and also how he's still got to take some lumps in his early racing career (DQ's, the rough start and the rain in race 2). That's all experience.
Gordie has been doing this long enough to have got those lumps out of the way, and boy does it show. That guy is *fast* and consistent as hell - and he also is a good road map for Jimmy's future. Both of them on their way up!
Gordies aggression while being in control is impressive. Cant wait to watch his career over the next decade or two
Imagine outclassing an experienced pro driver in a span of two races.
He was meant to be a marketing gimmick that would provide exposure to a person looking to make it big.
Ironically, that person became a gimmick sidekick for Jimmy who then quickly moved on to a teammate that can push him to reach his potential.
It's been a pleasure watching these two perform so well.
Gordie is an absolute demon, what a great reference and teammate to have and learn from.
I remember watching your early irl racing videos and you seem so much more confident now. Good to see you enjoying, Jim.
Okay honestly that P2 finish in oulton with a broken turbo is really REALLY impressive!
Good job both of you for that and also for the win this round!
Can seriously see Gordie going through Blancpain GT and possibly even ELMS if the funding is there, the boy’s mega!
An LMP3 seat in ELMS seems like a good first step, though I hope he tries for LMP2 initially.
It's actually Fanatec GTWC Europe 😅
It was such a pain after watching you win live, thankfully the second race win stayed :)
Really enjoying the IRL content Jimmy. Congratulations to you and the entire team on the win!! Keep pushing 😀😀👍👍
Thank you mate, very kind of you
I can’t imagine going from my sim rig to setting a purple S2 and having the stig check out my times…
Absolutely legendary
NOOOOO I'M SORRY I DIDN'T MEANT TO DOOM YOU ALL
It was all your fault 😂
@@k-mc94 I'm SORRY ok? :c
5 second time penalty for you.
1 race ban mate and a buck fifty fine
Oh no, this poor chap became the scapegoat
Jimmy really living the dream so much of us want right now
Gordie overtaking The Stig just like that is more than impressive.
I’m glad you’re keeping up the tradition of playing “1 2 3 Funk” for a racewin! Congrats!
Need that song deets on repeat
Missed R1 live but watched R2 cheering you on with my daughter (who mentions her birthday shoutout from you everytime your on❤)
You have a big bright future Jimmer, thank you for taking us along for the ride
I'm so surprised no channel yet has picked up Jimmy as a commentator, he's really informative and knowledgeable.
Great in-car camera view, thanks for the effort!
Also don't give up Jimmy, your racing carrier has barely just begun!
He’s actually been doing commentary for the Super GT Esports series for a few years now
Gordie's first race progress was amazing on the livestream and timing!
19:35 so what I got from this, 1st place (#87) got DQ'd for over-boosting and 2nd place (#4) got DQ'd for ride height...damn seems like Pragas just don't have good luck in Snettaton
Fantastic seeing your confidence grow this season
What an absolute rollercoaster of a weekend. Yall are absolute speed demons!
Congrats on the win Jimmy. You've worked hard for that. And well done for keeping a cool head after a bad start and especially when conditions change. Overcoming big steps and becoming a better racing driver everytime you step out the car. And gordie is an alien I'm convinced. He's gonna have an amazing career. Will be following him and supporting him for sure.
Gordie was absolutely flying out there, so proud of you guys for the win! Watching that fight for p4 live was so exciting too. Amazing weekend for racing!
Quote: As Jimmy said, "at no point in the weekend did Gordie ask".
And that man just shrugs. Love Gordie, clear number 2 for me. Jimmy always #1
DUDE! The cloud at 3:54 literally looks like jimmer in the shed on the sim rig. You can even see the headphones. It's nuts. Super poetic that that appears while you're IRL racing.
This was a fantastic vlog. With the ups and downs. I'm loving this series. Looking forward to the next episode. Keep up the good work.
It's fun watching you grow as a REAL driver. Thanks for letting all of us living through you vicariously Jimmy. Keep living the dream!
I bet that low helped make the high that much more satisfying. Thanks for sharing your passion with us. Really cool to see it translate into something real with real stakes at play.
Can you show championship standings after every race
This!
This has got to be the most realistic Assetto Corsa gameplay you've ever uploaded Jimbles! Incredibly immersive stuff, really feels like a real race weekend :p
Thanks! It's your fault I've spent too much on sim gear, so here's 10 bucks to soften that "loss"... Love ya bro!
Thank you mate!
Well done Jimmer Bombimmer, and nice to see the 2nd win did held up, although the 1st should have been yours too!
9:13 "Gordie is not gonna get a green flag lap..." Im a marshal from germany and I always found you brits using green flags at the posts for the formationlap a bit off. In my mind a green flag starts the race. I find the white flag to be more fitting. All cars are slow (white) and the race is not being started or continued (green flag).
I was quite bewildered when Bob (a british marshal who visited for a historic GP, extremely nice and professional chap) told me you use green flags during formation laps :D
EDIT: Bad luck day one, but you two really rocked the second race! Great driving in difficult conditions and a show of your mental strength putting Silverstone behind you. Keep on doing what you're doing, its much appreciated :D
Watched the race live, was so chuffed for you and Gordie, was gutted to find out the next day about the DQ. You guys are a great team and you are really great ambassadors for Praga racing. You'll get there Jimmy! Keep it up!
Dude! You guys beat The Stig! TWICE! Absolutely cracking runs.
Man the DQ hurts to watch especially when it's an equipment fault!! But I'm proud of the win mate, you learnt a lot from that race and all the races before! Your pretty damn quick too! And then of course I can't not give Gordie props, the mans a weapon confirmed!!!
Congrats Jimmer and Gordie! Absolutely awesome result! Gutted about the 1st day, but like you say, 2nd day was proof it wasn't just the car! Well done the whole team!
Been so looking forward to this video! When there's no issues Gorgie is unstoppable i swear, the gap in rave 2 he pulled out was simply incredible.
You did an awesome job as always Jimmer, improving every round
Gordie is an incredible driver, the lad got a bright future in motorsport if everything goes right.
Hey Jimmer, the look in your eyes at 18:13 just after you said "hopefully we can do it again." is to me, the look of someone who is VERY determined to put a wrong right. It's like your face smiles but your eyes don't....I love it!!!
Tremendous win on the Sunday. Was great to be there to see you win and meet you in person. Keep smashing it
I fucking lost it at the "Checking out my new suit".
Official pole to get that in the intro!!
the drip dont stop for jimmy

Way to go Jimmy!!!
Living my dreams vicariously through you!
So much fun watching this!
To the front boys!
Jeemlad! What a mega drive from the both of you. Well deserved win in the end. It's amazing to see how you continually improve race after race.
Gordie is a mf cheat code. Excellent driving jimbo, you’re seriously improving in this series. Love to see it
Jimmy please remember that although you have the highs and the lows now, you have earned your spot where you are. You have worked so hard to get there, and want to carry on up. There are speedbumps, and thats fine, its how you deal with and learn from them that makes you a better racer. Stay safe, have fun, and fulfill your potential!
Oh man. Those turbos work hard. First on track is still a win in my heart and shows massive improvement.
Bad luck Jimmy.. don't stress mate.. just keep doing what ya doing..crushing it brother. Congratulations on the win in race two... down on power purposely in race one.. doing the right thing.. think you guys got ripped off..
As a cycling road racer, this weekend was probably my worst yet. Fell off my bike on an oil slick, getting cut and bruised up commuting home on Thursday night. Then I picked the wrong glasses on Friday night's race and when the sun came out after a thunderstorm I couldn't see anything with or without glasses on because of water spray. Then I got a puncture on lap 2/12 on Sunday's race when I was feeling really strong. Shit happens sometimes, you just have to leave it behind you and look ahead! I hope that's my bad luck over for the year...
That David Morales guy, I don’t know if he was the same, but the last time I played ACC we raced and had a fantastic battle. Really enjoyed that. Who knows, maybe it’s the same one!!
congrats..great driving both of you..well earned..awesome watching you Jimmy doing a bang up job mate keep it up..glad you get to learn from Gordie and man it shows your doing great...now we just gots to get you used to that rain..it's a mental game but one you can and will overtake...cheers mate.
This is epic, havent seen your videos for a while, didnt realise you where racing actual cars now too!! Awesome!!
congratulations! May the remainder of the season be smooth and full of victories.
Was a pleasure meeting you that weekend, congrats on the win!
Glorious battle would be Collins vs Kapadia vs Mutch. The fast trio.
The form of those videos is absolutely joyous to watch. Can't wait to see another one! Oh and congrats too!
Imagine losing a race because you didn't gain an advantage but because a part was slightly singed.
He gained a MASSIVE advantage.. how can you not see that?
@@darkarchitect491 how do you prove, that he gaind the advantage from that?
@@darkarchitect491 You mean other than the race stewards themselves telling them they actually gained no advantage? It was a justified penalty, tech regs are tech regs...but the second win proves the first win wasn't some advantage gained from a turbo. Gordie and Jimmy just had the pace.
@@emmata98 He was a second an d half faster than the other cars out there in qually, and was disqualified.. they came from the pits and still was so far ahead.. with extra boost.. so yes they gained, and rightly disqualified.. cheats
@@pdxholmes You don't know that.. you're just going on them telling you the stewards said that.. LOL...
Getting yanked out of a car like they do is a weird feeling lol
Jimmer likes it that way! 🤣🤣🤣
@@mikehipperson I got yanked out of my car at Daytona by our other driver who’s half my size I was speechless
Bummer on that DQ. But the win on the 2nd go-around had to feel good. Congrats!
The video quality is so much more professional that it just doesn't compare! It was fun waking up early to catch your race live
i went to school with gordie and went to watch him karting a few times, got sent this video and honestly it’s crazy to see how well he’s doing!
it was awesome to meet you and Gordie, congrats to you both super deserved
Well done lads! This was an emotional roller coaster to watch! Vindication in the end! On to the next one!
Full credit and more to Jimmy and Gordie. I made my protests clear about the Saturday, and I thought it was all a bit suss, but ever the sportsman, Jimmy said that it's best put behind, and to move on, which for someone who is supposed to be an 'amateur' driver, I'd say that's about as professional as you can get 👏 Vindication on the Sunday, from raw pace, and I just hope that Team 87 can get the car hooked up as well as it was at Snetterton for the rest of the season, to at least give them a fighting chance. On this weekend's showing, I wouldn't rule them out. Congratulations on back to back 1st places 🏆🏆, though half of them didn't count. To finish first, you first must finish, and Broadbent/Mutch are a great combo. (Edit: Team 87 are just 8pts behind. 2nd in the standings as of 15/05/22)
I still think it's amazing he made it from simracer to real racer :)
Massive shame.
It could have been the double win that weekend.
🙁
Thanks Jimmy for letting us come on the ride!
An emotional rollercoaster for sure, but I think all it shows is how incredibly strong you guys are.
Never Give up! Fight on!
edit: just wanted to add I hope some day you can come across the pond and race in the USA, I would be there in a heartbeat as in sure many others would
Man meets trophy, man loses trophy, man fights through adversity to win trophy. Man and trophy live happily ever after. 🏆
Love your videos Jimmy! I’m so happy to see you improve as a racing driver. Keep on chasing your dreams !!!
I am really Happy for you Jimmy, and great racing Gordie.
Well done, Jimmer 👏
The birb music at the end....made my bloody day!
This has a better plot than most movies. Congratulations team 👍
I don't ever comment on youtube, but this has been my favorite journey to follow on TH-cam. Keep slaying Jimmy!
Anyone who spent time watching the BTCC support races know just how rapid Gordie was in Ginettas - it's absolutely zero surprise just how quick he is in a Praga.
what a emotional rollercoster ride that weekend must have been, Congrats on the trophy in the end!
Gordie's charge was so good to watch. Dashcam + TV announcer 👍
Damn shame about the first race Jimmer, you can't blame anything but the car for that. It does seem that the Praga has a penchant for buggering up for someone in each race. Must be down to quality control on bought in parts? As for the second, your analysis was right but don't blame yourself Jimmer! You have had to learn a lot very quickly and it's showing in your speed and attitude. Considering it was wet(ish) you stayed calm and brought the car in to give the Munch a good chance and the win! Plus only one spinnerado in qually, and no punterinos! You're getting there Jimmer!
Talking its easy, doing it its hard, this guy is doing the best he can, jimmy im with you smash the concorrency
Yay! Wuhoo! Well done guys and well done for not panicking in the rain Jimmy. Win or learn!
Watched that race live on the stream, properly proud of your result!
Love hearing 1 2 3 Funk at the end of a IRL race. 🍾
Hey jimmy, as a suggestion, put a couple of results/classification chart towards the end of the video, so we can easily have an idea about how's the championship going!
Anyway keep pushing and a lot of love from italy!
Gutted for you for that first race, I've been there. I started to kart at Buckmore in the 90's, my first meeting in the final I was taken out when the leader spun in front of me under pressure, win was definitely on the crds there. 2nd meeting I blew my engine in warmup, blew the spare in heat 2, and borrowed an engine and won in the final. Problem was the Rotax engine I'd had on the kart originall was heavier than the Arrows I had on in the final, and I hadn't weighed the kart after switching, at the weigh in I found I was 1/5kg underweight and got a DSQ. I should've had a burger.
Sadly those engines going pop were the bullet in my fledgling race career, as I couldn't afford to get them fixed.
Jimmy "Y are you running" .Congrats Jimmy keep positive and keep moving forward and reap the benefits. Gords is a 100
Congrats on your win :), sorry about the first race. Good luck to you for next time.
Your living a dream man
Absolutely
What a drama, Jimmy! So happy for you that you got the remedy in the 2nd race!
When the victory music started playing on the podium I teared up
Crazy talent from jimmy crazy to see him evolve 🎉
Gordie is such a talented beast! Insane how fast he is
So happy I got to meet you there. Just a shame I was there on the Saturday when we were stripped away
Congrats Jimmy & Gordie .... This video is a brilliant production all except that kiss @9sec in lol
Was great to meet you and geordie and watch you race, told you that you should have ran off with the trophy
WOW What was a good job by all the team. you did it.
Seeing your growth as a driver makes me so happy! Wouldnt mind seeing you in the skysports booth sometime too 👀
You deserve it Jimmy. We all are incredibly proud of you
Jimmy actually looks so swag a race car driver,
Also, unlucky about the weekend but keep strong!!!! Lmao i only watched half the video when i did this LETS GO JIMMER AND GORDIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Shame about what happened but we'll get it next time
