Fastest laps from round 4 of UK Time Attack @ Donnington Park
My fastest two laps from round 4 of UK Time Attack at Donnington Park. Class is Pocket Rocket class and the car is still used daily to get to work and back as well as driven to the track to compete!
First lap was just after my warm up lap at start of the session and tyres didn't feel quite up to temp as the drive out of the last corner on to pit straight wasn't great and the lap itself wasn't great with a few mistakes but second flying lap seemed a lot better making it my best of the day and a 1:18.8.

Here is my 3rd video take at Oulton park, lines are loads better and lap times are a lot faster. Camera did not pick the best view up but it does give great indication to the lines used, sound of the car and shows off the lap times.

Who’s Jeff?
YEEEESSSSSSS
Poor driver, looks expensive.
Oulton park is such a goid circuit except when you have a bunch of arseholes who race on track who think go karting will make them drive a race track better, does not work that
Warm those tyres up first
Feel for you. Lodge is a tricky corner. You were going in much too fast and were too jerky on the throttle imo.
Imagine if you got that on finance 😂
ST = Stupid Tit,or something along those lines....you aint Matt Neal and your not driving a touring car in the BTCC...
Not slating the lad but he was erratic on the brakes , throttle and steering , he would prob benefit from some passenger seat tuition and driver seat tuition too.Rome wasn't built in a day , onwards and upwards young man.
Sorry to see your car get damaged, This is what happens when you put shit tyres on a high performance car IMO. Massive understeer started the crash 👍. What make tyres were on the car by the way?
It appears that your talent ran out quite quickly there!
Talent?
Anyone order a cunt?
What a shocking plank/twat - surprised he didn't crash sooner. Over 10 years of track days + 8 years kart racing so know what i'm. Go back to school learn how to use your right foot brake before corners & tail brake into corners.
lifted the gas too suddenly, very simple and easy mistake, oh well, it's been 5 years since then, chances are he learnt :D
Cannot drive haha
road tyres?
u kept giving it gas to soon and on the last one u where going to fast and you kept giving it gas and learn to use the brake, but other than that good driving
You have no idea what you’re talking about pal
You could see your frustration getting the better of you after getting stuck behind those two nuns in the red Skoda.
At least they didn't bury their car in the barrier...duh..
"Only put your foot on the throttle when you know you don't have to take it off again" Wise words of Jackie Stewart. Looks like you were taking your tips from Amir Kahn - never seen so much jabbing of the throttle! Smooth is fast my man..
Well said , yep I remember Jackie Stewart saying that and I hear it in my head into every corner on every track day , that,s good advice 😉👍🤘!
Exit speed is more important than entrance speed in corners , someone else said that 🤔🤔🤔🤷 !
Aarrgh that sucks mate!!
Thanks guys for the positive comments, it was my brothers first time out on track and let's say a lot was learnt on the day. The car has been fixed and the second track day went s lot better plus we are back at oulton park on the 31st March 2015 to try it again. It has been proven only time and experience will make a good driver. He has put a lot of time in to change the bad habits and next year hopefully will be entering in to sprint competitions. The negative comments have been a good read, shows people are there to help everyone out! Not really nice to see people take the mick out of someone just starting out and wanting to try something new, plus all you really track day goes will know everyone has a off or two to start with as you push the limits and find the edge.
ben copson Glad the lesson was learned. Wishing your brother lots of safe fun in the future.
Thank you, He has got a lot better, Been to oulton park, Blyton and booked on to cadwell park since this. He has learnt the hard way but due to this made him far better.
Upwards on onwards
Just turned into Lodge far too early, I've made that mistake and have wheels off there, you just have to keep your foot in or you end up fishtailing into a barrier...
Thanks, a lot have the same accident there just caught him out plus in experience did not help to just plant it
Was the ESC off or on?
What was going off after the crash? mainly the lowloader driver taking photos? the whole digger thing? didn't seem enough of an impact to damage any barriers?
low loader driver taking photos - may well have been for insurance reasons. Digger - Doesn't take much to unsettle the barrier posts. Not dealing with it now may result in failure on a heavy impact impact. All guess work :P
haha, place i crashed most in video games :P It comes downhill and car is losing grip ..."Nooooo..." when realizing that precious car is going to be wrecked.
I think the problem started at 2:56 when it appears you were struck by lightning. Shame though.
It started just before the lightning with the missed apex :-)
You always know you've had a proper moment when the wipers start going lol. You'll learn. Don't put it down to one of those things. Learn from it
Thanks, he learnt a lot since from this. Shame a lot of people go to town saying he crap or should not be doing it. At least it went up for others to learn from and if you give advice make sure it's good advice
throttle off on off on off ...that fucking annoying as and bloody awful driving at say the least.
ouch
Wow! oulton park crew are very professioonal
Sorry to say but that was some really poor driving. I'm only 2 minutes in and I'm surprised you didn't lose it that soon. You know the throttle is analogue, right? It's not a switch...
Oh there we go. Three minutes in~ I wasn't far off at least.
Gotta love everyone posting "coulda saved that" amazing how everyone behind the keyboard is a pro driver lol
Absolutely shit handling the st 150s have . Plus u could of easily saved that from hitting the barriers pahahaha every corner it was squealing like a bitch with a broken nail haha
Its a very good handling car.
Must admit I've got a SWB Transit that handles better than that 🤦 !
He could have easily saved that.
That's some proper poor circuit driving. Get some tuition.
When the JCB put his feet down, i thought you'd decidded to have the remains buried where it died...
Nooooooooooo !!!! ^^
Im afraid to tell you your more of a second position driver at the moment without having the knowledge and skills on the track, ypu need to learn to replace the A peddal with the B pedal and not try pushing it so hard until 1 your tyres are warm 2 you know the track better and three you focus on more things than just being the leader. You almost lost it a few times and was just lucky there. Im afraid this is the truth and wether you like it or not my dad used to tell me when i first got into formula 3... Your not as capable as you would like to think. Just need some more practice and a nee car now and im sure you will be fine.
Sorry to tell you... Yes I am. I did not mean to offend you but I am telling you your mistakes whether you like them or not, don't believe me watch the video back. Following pos 1 driver going great hitting okay lines, then you get carried away once you have the lead over accelerating ( from lack of experience).. Common on track days, from your adrenaline, where you.should have taken up a defensive measure instead of trying to out speed him, which is why you hot the corner to quick. You can have a go at me on here all day but I am just trying to help you and don't want an argument. Taking advice always made me better, you should give it a go. Good luck with your driving.
Still smashing cars up? Or have you learned to take people advice on board yet?
What happened to your car? Write of, cold tyres got you there. Same car sounded nice.
Car been fixed, and done a few track days since. Just cold tyres and inexperienced that's all
I liked the video because car sounded great and was fast and some very good driving. Shame about the ending though :(
