Racing

[Willbee]

Did my first race in the Radical Club Cup not long back. Nightmare in quali, as the car had the wrong oil in, and so cut out after only a handful of laps. Didn't get any decent times on the board, therefore lined up on the grid in 30th out of 31 cars! lol Anyway, race was better and managed to work my way up to finish 15th. Fairly pleased with that and managed the fastest lap on lap 15 :D

Onboard video of the first lap here:

Impressive start and a decent result there then 8) where & when is your next race?

[Willbee]

Cheers mate. Yeah the start once I'd hooked it up was ok, but I delayed the release for a fair while because I was pretty nervous and wanted to see what the other cars were going to do. It's a pretty tough championship with some seriously competitive racers. Next time I'll nail it as soon as the red lights go out.

Next race is on the 23rd of June I think in the 750 Motor Club Bikesports Championship. It's at Donington just a few days after the Renault Car meet there and I'll do the RMA trackday a couple of days before to get some testing in :)

[16v_paddy]

I'll try & pop over for that as Donington is pretty local and I know I'm off work on the 23rd (so far anyway :roll: )

Great stuff mate :) I'll try and get you a paddock pass so you can get in FOC.

Paddy,
Managed to get you a ticket for free if you are still coming down. Not sure what the arrangements will be giving it to you but I can probably out you on a guest list with the gate monkey or similar.

Cheers,
Will

Nice :D

[16v_paddy]

Funny thing is, work have actually asked me to come in, no prizes for guessing what my reply is gonna be now :lol:

I just need to steal a car for the day now :???:

[Willbee]

Well up to you mate. If you have to work, then no probs.

PM your mobile number sometime, and I'll make arrangements for your ticket etc.

[16v_paddy]

Already PM'd you my number mate, no chance am I going into work now, it was more of a case of they asked if I wanted to work an extra shift, plus I've managed to find a car I can borrow for the day :-D

[Coops]

105mph round the tight left at craners = WIN :-) I want a radical!

[Willbee]

Think it's about 120mph once the slicks get some heat in them. Flat throttle all the way from Redgate to the old hairpin :)

Come out in a two seater sometime, but remember to bring a change of undies..

[Willbee]

I can now confirm it's 142mph :D

[16v_paddy]

:shock: **** a duck that's bonkers!!

Gutted I never made it now, had to go pick my car up from milton keynes & had a nightmare just getting there :headbutt:

[Willbee]

No problem mate,

I recorded the race on my inboard camera. Search Bikesports Donington on youbend.

I qualified 9th out of 22 and finished 6th. Those guys at the front are rapiiiiid! They are 1.5 seconds a lap quicker than me :(
