And a full day's testing on Friday. Needed it to knock 4 sec off my lap time.

The 1st race was fun after the spin, and the 2nd, had a great battle with Mark in his massively WIDE jap thingy, only problem, it let Ian get out of reach, but I did the move of the day, overtook Mark at the bottom of mountain, and that's only just wide enough for one car

 

[Jamie86]

Look forward to your video's then! I love Cadwell but like you have said it seems too narrow to race!

 

[Wick]

Great driving Tony! WTF was the smoky thing up front?

 

[Tony Hunter]

Some V6 twin turbo four wheel drive thing. The noise on the start line is something else!!

 

[SharkyUK]

Nicely done, Tony - some great driving as usual!

 

[sonny172cup]

Well done Tony, great driving there. Cadwell is my fav circuit, love the place, how do you rate it?

It was not how I remembered it, (only drove it once on a trackday) the speed difference is what does it.

It took me the morning to get through the oh sh1t barrier, thought I was doing well, but 1.49's again and again, then suddenly 1.46 pops up, then a 1.45, but I'm stuck on that now.

Coming through it unscathed (well minor door damage) it's easy to say it's great, and deep down I suppose I do like it, but as Helen said when we walked it on Sat eve, " there's no gravel traps!!!".

I know most places are scarey if you get it wrong, but you've got no chance there, and you have to bully your way pass people, then hope they are compliant.

I love it.

I hate it.

I don't know:S

 

[Chi]

Great work Mr H

 

[sonny172cup]

Think you hit the nail on the head, Iv only done Cadwell 3 times, can only imagine what its like in race conditions, I will get to find out next year.

 

[Tony Hunter]

Well, don't get in my way, or else,

 

[msa197]

Mallory park races on motors tv now!

 

[2Damnsly Andy]

Your sentiments about Cadwell are the same as mine Tony, Love the place but it scares the s**t out of me, if you get it wrong it's not going to end well.

Love the race footage, the small Clio lighs a blaze giving it loads and these massive Jap fire breathing monsters getting passed like they are stationary.

 

[MG cup]

Waiting on this weekends footage patiently....

Just watched the Mallory coverage, very poor for the French Trophy?!? At least you got the best of the weekends racing weather wise, Sunday afternoon was moist.

 

[Jay Payne]

As soon as the post man drops the SD cards through my letter box I'll get the vids up (if there is any footage on them).

 

[msa197]

Postman been yet?

 

[Jay Payne]

Day off I think

 

[Jay Payne]

So the SD cards have arrived, there aint a lot on them. Would of been good if the cameras were on

 

[Tony Hunter]

Not guilty. (for once)

 

[BIGASH]

So the SD cards have arrived, there aint a lot on them. Would of been good if the cameras were on

Camera worked faultlessly all day on the testday so not sure why it hasn't worked on the day So the Go-Pro hasn't recorded any of raceday?

 

[Tony Hunter]

We charged Fri night didn't we, I remember plugging it in.

 

[BIGASH]

Yes mate fully charged, cleared the card the lot! The camera showed exactly the same as it did on Friday and all sessions recorded perfectly

 

[Jay Payne]

No rear footage at all, race 1 Go-Pro ok (and uploading now) Race 2 cuts off half way

 

[BIGASH]

Was the Go pro card full mate? The camera still had battery as it was on when Tony looked at it so I guess the card must of filled up

The rear one did seem to be playing up yes sorry

 

[Jay Payne]

Nope, still 9GB free on the GoPro card (its a 16GB) No idea what happened. What footage there is tho is great watching

 

[Tony Hunter]

No rear footage at all, race 1 Go-Pro ok (and uploading now) Race 2 cuts off half way

B0LLOCKS, Big ones!!

 

[Jay Payne]

Didnt tell me about your little off track trip late in race 1

 

[Jamie86]

Have you seen you can hardwire them still in the case by "modifying" the cable..

[Jay Payne]

Its not a Hero 3.

We will probably just drill a hole in the case if its a problem. The car is wired for power near there for that anyway

 

[Jay Payne]

Race 2 cuts off half way

at 11 Mins and 30 seconds ish

 

[BIGASH]

That must be about 30 seconds before the overtake

 

[Jay Payne]

He was behind a big smokey jap thing when it goes

 

[msa197]

He was behind a big smokey jap thing when it goes

That's the car that hit him at the start in race 1!

 

[BIGASH]

He was behind a big smokey jap thing when it goes

That narrows it down.......

 

[Tony Hunter]

Didnt tell me about your little off track trip late in race 1

​I'd practiced that about 4 times in testing!! lol

 

[Jay Payne]

Before anyone asks that is the roof scoop inlet you can see above Tony. its normally not seen as I put the rear footage there
