In car from my recent race at Cadwell

thegingerninja · 20-09-2010, 06:36 PM

In car footage from a rather damp couple of races at Cadwell in the Golf Mk2 GTi Championship. Watch the idiot in 3rd place come past me on the grass to take out the leader (no I didn't pay him to do that either)

and he is an instructor at this circuit! Trying to overtake there - numpty!

one way to take the lead

your brakes are a bit temperamental, seem to lock up very easy

drying track - it pissed it down about 15 mins before the race start, also nearly everything on these cars is standard (to keep costs down), but everyone is in the same boat so it doesn't matter. It actually quite good since it stops the people with deeper pockets getting an advantage. When all the cars are the same, it comes down to the donkey behind the wheel and car set-up.

Interesting place to attempt an overtake!

He got 4 points on his race license and excluded from the results - which is no "real" punishment as he still completed the race out of the points and who gives a toss about points on a race license? The only effective punishment is a race ban - that would really hurt.

At least it was the same colour car.

Looks like you had another good result, Who say's you need luck !

Noticed thats a Saxon Motorsport car, what's your involvement with them?, I keep looking at the arrive and drive option on their site for the Golf Championship, really fancy a full season of racing next year and it looks like I can do a whole season of the GTI championship for the cost of one Britcar race!
