lol your front tyres must be absoutely u/s after all that understeer. Is there no way to tame your front end down? you're brave and it looks like your car could be so much faster. great vid, my heart was pounding just watching it .. shame you didn't get that pesky Pug at the end but boy! what a race. Great rear shots of that fiesta sideways too hehe more more more!

Great racing, shame about all of the understeer. If you set the back of the car up to be stiffer you could use that to help turn into the corners allowing you to use the power more effectively instead of that horrid understeer. Or it may be that you are just trying to turn in whilst carrying a bit too much speed.

How did you NOT manage to get down the inside of the white Peugoet going into Brooklands, he missed the apex many times.

Shots of the Fiesta show that they are still probably the best handling car in that series smile

agree about the understeer. far too harsh with the sterring inputs in some places.
a stiffer rear end would help with cornering, and some toe out would help with turn in.

but some good racing though smile

cheers for the comments, i only put it for a laugh..

anyway the car has no toe out at the rear,and was running maximum stiff, however agreed that the driver could be a little more smooth... but i did have a few other things on my mind at the time... biggrin

Haha! Love the wave at the Peugeot!

There are quite a few similar videos in youtube for the Locost championship (sorry for blatant thunder stealing) a lot of which are taken from Ali Garretts car at various circuits this year. Well worth taking a look for similarly close racing! A search for Locost Racing usually brings most of them up.
