Thought this might be a bit of fun since quite a lot of us race on here going on previous threads so hows about a thread for our race videos.

Now, I'm not a moderator so people can tell me to GTF, but was thinking only post your videos as they happen, not your entire back catalogue!


Scottish Mini Cooper Cup - Round 5 Race 1
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCUsEkej3sw

Howler of a start leaving me chasing Craig Noble and Chris Reid for the first few laps. (slight push to get Chris going along railway on one occasion!). Got past them, then chased down Guy Johnston. Good battle with him before catching Hamish Brandon and Steven Clarke fighting on the last lap. They had a coming together coming out the last corner gifting me a couple of places on the run to the line!


Scottish Mini Cooper Cup - Round 5 Race 2
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMoVmw0FFk8

Another poor start with Steven Clarke drawing along side but held the line in to turn one and left him to battle Hamish Brandon. Then it was a dog fight with David Sleigh and Stefan Di Resta for the rest of the race, just pipped to the line by Stefan, 7 thousandths of a second!

Subsequently given a 5sec penalty dropping me a place after the race for going 4 wheels over the white lines 3 times. Just for fun, count how many times the red car in my rear facing camera goes 4 wheels over...


Scottish Mini Cooper Cup - Round 5 Race 3
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1MzR0CJ9RPE

Yeah yeah, need to work on my starts! Guy Johnston slips past and I'm left defending against Chris Reid. First lap fracas at Clarks leaves nowhere to go along railway and Chris slips by on the run up the straight. Got him back with minimal elbows out and chased down Steven Brewster and Kyle Reid fighting hard for 5th. Good race but nowhere to get them and after Kyle missed 3rd on the home straight for the last time, my car needs a nose job!

RAFMSA race at Rockingham this year filmed with my old Nokia looking backwards from my Peugeot 205 GTi6.
I was up to third at the beginning, cracking race My racing drivers excuse is that I kept selecting 5th instead of third. Changed all the linkages and made a baulking device to stop me selecting 5th looking forward to next race
Check out the variety of cars in our series.

PS the Blue Radical was not lapping us that was just him catching up
No really, I love wet qualifying lol

Good idea for a thread hopefully people will not fill it up with hundreds of entries like the club pictures thread

Here's my in-car from Silverstone today. Second race of the weekend, round 6 of the Logson Group BRSCC Porsche Championship on the National circuit. The race slightly is more interesting to watch than Saturday's, although I was last in class yet again!

Great video Chris (though I'm biased as I'm in it at the end...) Good race, I enjoyed the scrap, your grunt v's my grip made for a fun battle.

Hi Skylinecrazy,
Yes right car, well spotted!

http://www.racecarsdirect.com/listing/39782/pilbea...

Not sure what we'll do next, we're expecting our second child any day now so are thinking of getting something that we can drive to events or at the very least something that doesn't mean tyre scrubbing every 5 minutes! I'm looking at my wife's MX5 and wondering whether that might be a good option!

Haha, there's certainly plenty of MX5s that enter, and seem to be competitive! Best of luck for the rest of the season anyway! Hopefully I'll be competing soon, but for now i'll stick to the other side and take some rather poor photographs!
