Burpspeed Version 2: Race Car Build



  182cup & 172 racecar
Looked like fun Mr Hunter!

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 ;)

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

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

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.

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.

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).
 
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 :(

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