lol am in need off a nice LE let me know haha

am not starting any thing just the truth and only the truth p.s. do you think that you mite off bin faster in your van?

It took almost 24 hours to upload, but here's 4 videos of the day;

Session 1, early in the morning, greasy track, with Fishy Dave as passenger;
Donny Session 1

Session 2, just before lunch, track drying out. This is the session with Chrissy mate in the supercharged DC2;
Donny Session 2

Session 3, just after lunch, first time out on my near slick Pirelli P Zero Competition Dry tyres;
Donny Session 3

And session 4, later on in the afternoon, with Mr Tickle as passenger;
Donny Session 4


Phew, this uploading lark is hard work

No sound on any of those for me, Dan Is it just my PC?

Bloody hell

Sound is fine on my laptop pre uploading. 24 hours later and it's dropped it. Will try reuploading

I reckon I need to review the way I upload from my new digital SD camcorder.

At the moment, it downloads to my pc in VLC media format (.mts). Then I converted it to mpeg2 format using the software with the camcorder.

Got to be a better way, but what? Any ideas?!?

mate,that van is bloody quick.

Uploaded session 3 again, albeit a different method.

Sound works!!

So here is Session 3, just after lunch, first time out on my near slick Pirelli P Zero Competition Dry tyres. Crazylegs and another red 16vt feature

Donny session 3

Sessions 1,2 and 4 to follow later...

Great run! Who was in the red coop with the black wheel? It sounds insane

Wasn't Mario as he only had 3 wheels for most of the day - maybe we should christen his car "trotters independent traders" or tit for short (and boy is he short)

How is the tripod getting on?

Homodan,you took an interesting line around Donny.
Typical accountant.The easiest and shortest route.
Less fuel

Unlike you I take the tarmaced lines, not the grass and muddy ones
Fast and smooth John, fast and smooth

I think that was Delta Sports 16vt with the new FK coilovers. Sounds bonkers, and I believe runs around 400 horses. My 350 obviously are harder workers

BORING!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did I ever tell anyone my middle name is Jenson?

And who was still going at the death?

Right, now I've cracked the uploads. Some 5 days later

So to repeat my earlier post, with properly working links and vids with sound

It took almost 24 hours to upload, but here's 4 videos of the day;

Session 1, early in the morning, greasy track, with Fishy Dave as passenger;
Donny Session 1

Session 2, just before lunch, track drying out. I was running around 320bhp in this session with Chrissy's mate in the supercharged DC2;
Donny Session 2

Session 3, just after lunch, first time out on my near slick Pirelli P Zero Competition Dry tyres. Having a dice with the insane sounding 400 brake 16vt and later Crazylegs 20vt;
Donny Session 3

And session 4, later on in the afternoon, with Mr Tickle as passenger;
Donny Session 4

Uploads; done!

Me and you both, Dan

Tony got about half a warm up lap as a passenger, then that red flag turned into the chequered flag

I was too in the sprintey coupe.

Hi guys i just logged on to say hello after seeing some of your cars at donington, i was just a passenger in one at my first trackday, but to see so many on track at once was great!

Hello!
What car where you in??

a red 16vt m8

The one that was trailered? Looked a bit "used" ?

Certainly went well on track

and abused

we do fast and fun - don't diss the street sleeper/rat look!

I remember that, it's on my 3rd vid. Apologies for the comments suggesting you "put your foot down" a little before I passed you

Sounded bonkers anyway that car!

and hopefully it will go a bit better now we've sorted out the odd hiccup or two, we only finnished it the day before

apparently there was too much overlap on the cams which meant very little vaccuum for the brake servo so you had to stand on them as hard as you could to make them work.
it didn't do much for the power output either

in your vid a customer was driving, we are doing some engine work for a 750bhp monster he is building and have just finished the head, we asked him to come along just for some fun but he kept having to back off to avoid being black flagged for noise

we were more amused by

the 16vt bit was correct

Haha yep I've been corrected since.

It was a classic case of chinese whispers. Wish I'd just come over and introduced myself in the pits

Well hopefully there will be another time.

Hi Hovendan,

Yes sorry about that, I've looked at the video, the car came up on boost even though I was only half throttling it and then I was only using around 6000rpm's max, power was like a switch that day, and then trying to keep the revs down for the noise control didn't leave much rev room to work with. Maybe I can came and have another play with you chaps when one of my Toad cars are finished, do a bit of testing at the same time maybe.

FWD is not my thing I'm afraid so sorry to everyone if I got in the way, Toad will be a much more controlled drive.

Regards

The Customer

P.s I was only driving for a little less than half the time that day.

Looked pretty quick..... see you at another track day
