That looks like fun, although the track is really not adapted to karts. I would prefer a twistier track myself with less straights for a kart.

i know what you mean... he's scratching his nose going up the hill lol... still, he's not wanting for gears...


here's a little something special for deadcat...

Yeah our cats do that sometimes. Too funny!!!

Larry throwing his car around in Adelaide. I was there that day!

These guys are insane.

great clips Play

i remember watching that perkins/bowe finish on tv

Hadn't seen the Transit Supervan before - so that's where Renault got their idea for the Espace F1!

i drove this track - Dundrod - quite a bit in GPL... absolutely fantastic stuff!

WARNING: hold on to your balls if you got 'em... mine disappeared moments after the start, and still havent come back out.

Cheers Revs - even I enjoyed that...!

Yeah, those guys are completely nuts! I got to know John McGuinness a few year's back at a BSB race at Cadwell Park. Nice calm family guy, who you would never imagine is such a complete nutter on these road races.

cheers Gel!

cool, Hen... you definitely get around!!... i've done alot of laps at cadwell park in GPL too... great track!

turn it up load... and if youre at work, turn it up even more... better still, get one of those projector thingys cranked ^up if youve got one lying around...

The return of "Load Music"...!

Awesome - the sound bouncing off the hillsides...!

I was a bit disappointed to start with, in all honesty.
Apart from the sound, the actually camera coverage was less-than joined-up. I couldn't get any feel for the "circuit / track / stage".
Fortunately, we then get the stage from on-board, and...
...bugger - the outside view is washed-out by the camera being set for the low-light of the cockpit.

BUT - you can see the driver's actions.
No left-foot braking (perhaps it isn't a necessary discipline in this genre?).
So, some great heel-&-toe action instead.

At the risk of sounding ungrateful Revs, as a visual experience, it's not stellar.
However, as a "Load Music" track, it's a winner.

lol yeah i thought you'd like that one

When drivers were fat and tyres were skinny...

What's with those gear shifts...? Two-ratio box perhaps, something like a heavy truck - s'trewth.

THIS.

Too funny!!

That's fantastic...!!!!

Monaco in the rain with KERS and wheel-spin would be a challenge...

bites knuckle ...

Those are some fine cars...

drifting a v8supercar

fwiw last night i raced door to door and more with Shane, Owen Kelly and Scott McLachlan on Iracing (these guys are current V8supercars drivers)... they rocked up with 5mins to go in qualifying and Shane pipped my time for pole, and Scott and Owen lined up right behind me... Shane ended up taking me out grievously, the lot of them are as ruff as guts ontrack, but it was briliant racing) with a love tap into the inside grass as i tried to pass him (for the 4th time, and again) and my front end finally gave up... was absolutely awesome fun racing though... but the boy has skills!

EDIT - lol, at one stage in the middle of the race he says, "if dont have room, you've gotta make room, don'ya?" as opposed to being gently introduced to the verge of the grass under braking! lol - bloody awesome fun! seriously!
