Afternoon all,

Spent a few hours putting together a short highlights reel from my DC2 on track at Croft on Friday!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONNHb41Eegc

Be greatful for some feedback, and if you think the added clips are funny or not. I wanted to try and make it more entertaining than a normal dare I say boring trackday vid..

Cheers
Dan!


Oh and a few pics

I did like your 'moments' interspersed with the most boring looking man ever (initial D I presume?) also - without sound (at work on lunch) I presume the Dragonball Z bit was referencing Vtec (i.e. it's over 9000!!!!!11!)

Very fun to watch smile

I liked the video mate, like me you don't take yourself too seriously and seem to enjoy sliding around rather than chasing the perfect lap time.

Girlfriend's nan bought it her when she passed her test - she sent me a picture laughing at it saying it was going in the bin. No way was I losing free JDM points.

The steering wheel is much too far away from you, I can't understand why you make the same mistake in the same place lap after lap and I couldn't understand what you said when you followed it up with 'Why did I say that?", but apart from that I enjoyed it - enough to watch the whole clip to the end and there isn't much makes me laugh at this time on a grey Winters morning. laugh

Hats off to you for driving hard in the wet too, I hate it!
