So in another thread (tyre stretching). A PHer outed themselves as being the driver in this video, as i'm sure you'll agree the standard of driving is not only poor it's outright bloody dangerous.
So in the spirit of public safety, here's the video:
In car footage - Hot Hatch day Knockhill
This is the 'member' driving it:
honda01

Should it get taken down, i have a copy i can re-upload.

No video at work, but this wouldn't be the infamous 'Team Gimp' video...?

If it is, I agree. ery of the highest order.

Knockhill hot hatch days are closer to banger racing then a trackday

I ended up actually hoping he'd have a huge off and hurt himself! What a knob.

I'd be interested to know what engine the Morris Minor van at 2:30 has.

Yes, slightly rapid for a Minor, I found myself thinking that, a brief interlude in the thoughts of:

For the benefit of people who don't have access to video at work, and for the blind, can you describe what the guy does?

Put simply everything you shouldn't on a track day. So far we have seen in a number of videos, bumping and barging a-la BTCC. Purposefully destabilising the car to produce a 360 degree + spin. Driving with a watch which wieghs more than the fking car!

He is a menace!

You can add overtaking in corners, swerving all over the track and intentionally hitting the rear bumper of another car, obviously his mate's... Utter tt.

Oversteers, understeers and generally hacks his way round the track, storming through cones setup to protect his sorry self, tries to ram others off the track, yelling expletives and gesturing at other drivers for displaying a modicum of cluefulness, and while his passenger sts himself in the left seat, he's totally owned by an orange Morris Minor Van, who passes like he's sat in the pits.

This isnt quite a trackday event though is it? I mean, I have done a few and if any driver had done just one of the things on that video, they would have been black flagged, booted off the course and told never to come back!

Is it that Knockhill has different standards or that this "hot hatch day" thing is setup differently?

Oh and yes, utter cock.
