  • It has finally happened. The first round of the EnduroKa Championship at Donington Park and what a special day it was. Join me for a behind the scenes VLOG. We discuss race strategy and have a few unplanned pit stops but still finish strongly and in the process learned a huge amount for the next round.

      @@PetrolPed Exactly ... in this race there is not so much difference of performance, as for example occurs in F1 ... The pilot is the most important and not the money of the team or technology on board.

    Just 7 laps off is really well done for a fledgling team! It’ll just be race experience (including in the garage) and some luck as always... and dare I say it maybe a trick or two that might get past the scroots! ;-)

      Hi Glenn. The Ka on track handles really well. I has uprated shocks but totally standard engine so not very much power ! You have to drive very smooth and take speed through the corners. I'll be at the Ford Power Festival at Brand Hatch later this year so hope to see you then 👍

    Those tyres look to be standard tread depth ( 8mm ). Skim the tread down to 4mm, the tyre will not move on the tyre block, and the tyres last longer....
    Not sure what you toe settings are on the front but try 0 toe.
