Great video, I didn't realise donington was still operating, thought they went bust - I live 10mins from it. Might have to investigate some laps, do you need any sort of formalities in place to just track a car?
Awesome man. Can't wait to get mine back on track. Is the car misfiring when you're flat out or is it the camera? Sounds like the revs are a bit up and down or something
@@Sparkplugsteve what camera do you use? The focus always seems to be good. My DSLR I really struggle to get it to focus half the time...! And definitely. We'll arrange something 😁
It's a go pro hero 5. It's just simple and non complicated for me. But I use an external mic as the inbuilt mic is horrible. The hero 7 would be my next choice has they improved the sound.
Hi steve so you can drive then ha/ha you done ok mate ..... it's impossible to have a track car without any stonechips and marks ☝it would be nice to see you down in bembrey
Fantastic video Steve. Looks like you enjoyed yourself. Shame about the damage done to the bumper and screen. I would have been well pissed off If It was mine. But I suppose only to be expected!! Lawrence from Heathrow.
I was thinking I should of got some done but hearing that makes me feel a bit better about not doing it. It's the risk I take going on track so have to man up about it and keep on having fun.
Nice video, Mate! And great job on the car. It is good I can watch someone else having fun with Fiesta as I'm afraid to take mine to the track as it is my daily driver and I would ruin it :)) How did stock brakes hold up,tho? From video it is obvious you did not brake aggressively before every corner, but still it must have taken quite a lot of beating.
Yeh they were ok but I went easy on them. As you see in the clips only the once did I leave my braking late and hard. I was too afraid of cooking them. Torque vectoring kills them in the corners too and that's one of the reasons I was holding off accelerating hard out of the corners. If you feel the wheels spin on the corners then you pretty much know on these cars the brakes will get involved.
@@Sparkplugsteve true, totally forgot about torque vectoring, you are right! So do you plan on buying LSD? That would be serious upgrade along with bigger brakes you plan to do.
Looked like a fun evening Steve. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Another great watch Steve thanks for sharing
Nice to see you at my local track Steve, keep up the great content
Nice video mate . I definitely agree with the mountune springs being to soft for track. Going coilovers next .
Yeh got mine on order.
Spark Plug Steve saving up for mine
Hi Steve another great video I am going to put new disc on my st are the j hook disc Ok. or would you stay with standard disc but upright the pads
It's performing well Steve. I was down there in the 350z on the Tuesday 6th there was few quick fiestas. Were you at the same session ?
No I was there week after that. Thanks
Why was a trex opening the garage for you?
Haha.
Looks epic be good to see you when you feel confidence in yobbo with the new mods in pipeline thanks for sharing
Great video, I didn't realise donington was still operating, thought they went bust - I live 10mins from it. Might have to investigate some laps, do you need any sort of formalities in place to just track a car?
Rockingham is the circuit that has gone bust. Just a helmet and a driving license.
Awesome man. Can't wait to get mine back on track. Is the car misfiring when you're flat out or is it the camera? Sounds like the revs are a bit up and down or something
It's the camera. For some reason the sound goes funny when I'm flat out at high rpm. We will have to meet up on track when your done.

What bhp are you running here Steve ?
It's stage 2 here so around 230 to 240bhp
What is that 412bhp puma speed fiesta like compared to yours at 240bhp ?
A lot faster. But it was a wet day so it was wheelspinning
Yeah that looks like great fun. Lovely car. 👍
haha i was walking my dog outside the fence and seen a blue fiesta going round! had no idea it was you!
I wish I lived that close. I'd be on track every week. 😁
@@Sparkplugsteve haha im working on my blue FiST to get it track ready. will pop up and say hello if i ever see you up there
Maniac maniac, yobbo-
Nice one, decent lines
Thanks.
Great vid, thanks for taking us along. Really enjoyed it 👍🏻
Bloody Clios going in the gravel!
There was some quick clips there. I couldn't keep with them.
Glad u had fun mate. Good vid
Well done Steve car looked very fast down the straights do you know what your top speed was?
Yeh think it was 113mph GPS. Thanks. If you go on Instagram or Facebook you will see my lap data.
Top vid Steve !!
Thanks.
Great channel 👍😎
Thank you
Great video from you thank's. I see that you probably enjoy walking in the pits... all sounds and smells, that's life !
Class Steve you seemed to have really enjoyed that some good looking racing lines well done sir👌
Thank you
I have heard that the mountune springs are not grate for at all for anything
Awesome, Donington is a nice fast track and the car looks cracking
Nice vid
The stonechips is what puts me off taking my RS on track so the Megane gets it instead. I love Donington, there again on Monday.
Looked like you had fun mate. I really want to try a track day with mine. Pisser about the stonechips 😬
Good stuff Ste glad u enjoyed it buddy it looked very busy tho💥🤙🔥👍
How did the ds2500 feel any good?
Yeh they did the job fine. I did overheat them once at the end of the evening but overall they were ok.
No sausage curbs ??
When you next going to the ring? Am going in a stage3 fiesta at the start of May
Probably late in the Yr. But not booked anything yet.
Lol still way faster than me! Also, noticed they took away the sausages at Goddards (the last chicane). Interesting...
Now you mention I guess they have.
What a great budget way to go "racing".
Hi steve so you can drive then ha/ha you done ok mate ..... it's impossible to have a track car without any stonechips and marks ☝it would be nice to see you down in bembrey
I want to do Pembrey this Yr.
Looked great fun, The Fiesta did amazing considering the setup you have, I'm doing brands on Monday.
I'm gutted for you about the stone chips, what a pisser. Touch up time. Enjoyable vid otherwise, thanks for posting Steve 👍
Great video bud 👌 need to buck up the courage to book my first track day 😂😂
The game play graphics are really good on forza now!!!
🤣 I was a forza addict a few yrs ago.
I’ll have Type r any day
Hey Steve good video wee cars goin well nice sound out of it 🍺👍
Fantastic video Steve. Looks like you enjoyed yourself. Shame about the damage done to the bumper and screen. I would have been well pissed off If It was mine. But I suppose only to be expected!! Lawrence from Heathrow.
Thanks for a great ride Steve where was todays fart ?
There is a burp if that helps. Right where I look in the window for the time.🤣
Stone chip protection vinyl - film wouldn't have saved you there sad to see the car take such a battering great vid as always
I was thinking I should of got some done but hearing that makes me feel a bit better about not doing it. It's the risk I take going on track so have to man up about it and keep on having fun.
Another great update, nice to see yobbo hit the track. Unfortunately clio 172's are the cheapest but best value track cars on the planet lol
You ever thought about a car meet Steve?
6.09am and 1 dislike, think i just wet myself..please reveal yourself disliker..ha ha...have a great weekend Steve..best wishes
Maybe it was the belly shot in the intro?
@@RgW00D that's my belly cost me thousands to get it haha 😂
Shame about the gravel rash.
Go full race car with fiesta
Steve How much power has Yobo got mate
Just got back from a dyno session so will put the video results up soon.
You need b thinking about buying a quicker car all do respect it is a Fiesta at the end of the day
Ouch you shot right to my heart there. What you suggest?
Steve I sent you a photo of my car on messenger as I couldn’t do it on here

Yes I will get a lsd for sure. Just a matter of when funds allow.
@@Sparkplugsteve cool, looking forward to that install video 😎
