Andrew Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 Here's a video on board the Civic, race 2. The pace slows a bit on the third lap after a Caterham emptied it's sump from the chicane onwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreigM Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 Boy that was a close one, the coverage will be on sky motors tv on 21 July time 18:54 can't wait to see it, so p****d of my gopro let me down only 4 months old the best race I have ever had and no footage I had the same with a GoPro, as did a mate - seems they are maybe not that robust. Fortunately mine came with a 2 year guarantee and the retailer (dogcam) where very quick at replacing it. Looking at all the footage makes me want to go racing...even if I do come dead last....wonder whats involved in converting my westie to a race-legal car...hmmm...

fil46 Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 A cage and plumbed in fire system, Fia master switch fia harness and you should be good for go come on man get racing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreigM Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 I've got the cage and harnesses already, but thought there were lots of regulations about not being allowed carbon fibre (my car has a carbon dash and a couple of other interior bits)...might look into it over the winter....do you know if there is a class for bike engined cars?

cast iron Posted July 5, 2011 Author Share Posted July 5, 2011 not sure about Knockhill regs but Northern Saloons you dont need a cage and carbon is acceptable and we have a class for BEC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fil46 Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 come to the next round for a look of my car, I will try to help you get sorted, need more 7's on the grid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 I think a standard busa engined car would go quite well at Knockhill. Light car, 180bhp and a nice sequential box to get out of the hairpin and up that b****y hill! Mind, you'd probably still have a "Taxi" passing you and the end of the straight. Race results are up now. HERE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreigM Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 come to the next round for a look of my car, I will try to help you get sorted, need more 7's on the grid Thanks Phil, I might just do that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 There are some good photos HERE He's caught Pete's Honda in mid spin in quallifying. Some good shots at the chicane.. probably not so good for the driver's underwear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
