Your castle videos and sightseeing videos are great on this clip--always great to have a passport and see how other people live across the water-----looks like you've got the hang of the British stock car--good luck tomorrow.
@davetrcracing so true! He seems to have taken to it like a duck to water, and the cars look flipping amazing as you say. Towards the end, I was expecting him to go in for a tap on Tom's bumper, but I forgot he is a novice! 😂
@@captainnutnut6077 was a solid effort, he jumped the inner curb for it, if the other car wasnt there neither of them would have been giing still i recon. fkn sick race non-the less tho
That's the idea! Well, kind of. It's full contact, so if a driver is in the way, you give him a tap on the rear bumper and get him out of your way! 😂 As I watched TMez following Tom towards the end, I was waiting for him to brake late and give Tom a whack! He seemed to take to it like a duck to water, but the contact element may surprise him. Either way, I'm super stoked to see this legend take part in our wonderful sport for the first time.
They race them in the Netherlands. Near the Belgium and German border we have few tracks. They run on shale and tarmac. Even a few grass tracks sometimes. If you want more info let me know!
Like Martinsville. Diamond the corner a little, once it sets, like an egg under the throttle. Those big bars in front and back, nascar had big pieces of wood upfront to protect the radiator from problems. San Jose Nick Rescino , Pombo, Keading. That was like the Wild West in the 70’s watching them bump n run. Have fun
When I first saw how early you were lifting and how late on the throttle I thought wow the car is off a bit. Then I think I heard you say 4000 lbs. that explains it. I ran 2500 lb modifieds.
My guess would be that Rob Speak (the promoter/owner of Skeggy, the bald dude who talked to him towards the end) is planning on doing some kind of demo run or race at some point during the weekend.
Hoosier used to be a tyre supplier for the sport many years ago, but we now use American Racer. But, to answer your question, they don't use slicks as they race on dirt as well as asphalt, so they need the grip. At least, that is my best (educated) guess.
@kendaumen862 me too! I'm a new fan, having been introduced to him because of his entry into this event. He seems to have taken to the car like a duck to water, but it will be fascinating to see what he makes of the contact aspect!
I watched them race in Australia on you tube, I was told if you finish 1st and your teammate finishes in the top 5 you win the race, is it the same in the UK, and are there other combination to win? I'm from Milwaukee,Wisconsin, was involved in Modifieds, Sprints, midgets from 1974 to 1992
Huh! Going asphalt racing after dirt is definitely a change of pace. In general, dirt wingless racing you can make 6 mistakes per lap and not get passed. Usually, in asphalt wingless, one mistake and someone is passing.
That, my friend, is a BriSCA Formula One Stock Car. Imagine a sprint car with bumpers that allows full contact and races on (roughly) 1/4 mile dirt and asphalt ovals. If you search YT for Brisca F1, you'll find dozens of videos. I'm so stoked to be able to meet him on Saturday! 😃
Yes she dose, a star war look,you should get her the episodes of them, that’s right , your woman is hot, beautiful and living your best life with you, thanks BigAl California
What a shitfight,, an obese car with a decent engine running on bitumen with dirt tyres!! What could go wrong. Running a wingless Sprintcar to those would be about the same as driving the grader to racecar
Just wait until you see 30+ of those bad boys on the track at full tilt with the bumpers flying in! The World Final itself is going to be *bedlam*! Just wait and see what his videos after the weekend are like! 🤪
I think you are not realising what those heavy front and rear bumpers are for. This is full contact racing... Someone is in your way?? Knock them out of it.
ruclips.net/video/KhkRBVGgclw/видео.htmlsi=He4lNVi5rSyV-oTy This is the last time the World Final was at Skegness in 2012 - definitely not a boring race. This what t-mez is getting himself into!
I'm an American who watches British stock car racing whenever I can. This is really cool to see!!
And brutal! (I learned that the hard way 😭)
A whole bunch of those tanks on a bullring - I can only imagine the mayhem! Kudos for trying something out of your comfort zone. 🤘
Awesome that you are showcasing Brisca F1 to a US audience, hope you enjoy the experience, I will be there for the World Final tomorrow night.
Your castle videos and sightseeing videos are great on this clip--always great to have a passport and see how other people live across the water-----looks like you've got the hang of the British stock car--good luck tomorrow.
Well, I've never seen these things race before either . So I will definitely be watching. Have fun .
You won't be disappointed, they always put on a show and this event is likely to be a spectacle. I just hope TMez is ready for some contact
Theres no better way to learn the lines than following Tom and Catherine around 👌
Toms brand new car looks amazing 😍
@davetrcracing so true! He seems to have taken to it like a duck to water, and the cars look flipping amazing as you say. Towards the end, I was expecting him to go in for a tap on Tom's bumper, but I forgot he is a novice! 😂
“looked” he got followed in last corner 😂 (still won wheelspinning into the line with his steering column broke tho lol)
@loonytoon4921 Unfortunately, it didn't work! As a die hard Wainman fan, I was bloody gutted, but what a race!
@@captainnutnut6077 was a solid effort, he jumped the inner curb for it, if the other car wasnt there neither of them would have been giing still i recon. fkn sick race non-the less tho
@@loonytoon4921 the drivers say the cars are always better after they've gotten bent a bit
Good luck Tmez!!!!! 🏁🏁🏁🏁
Welcome to Lincolnshire! Good to see you getting the support from Rob and the Harris team. Looks like you're adapting to the car well. Good luck!
First of all welcome hope you’ve enjoyed your stay and for your first time in this sort of race u did amazing
Nice video, cool shots of the castle! Best of luck racing!!
This is awesome guys love watching this test day with cathrine on track too brilliant,good luck Tmez 👍
I see the Star Wars connection. TMez is a traveling man. Have fun!
Pulling the tearoff in the car had me 🤣🤣
Genuinely excited to see how you get on. A top 12 finish in the WF would be a great achievement.
Dam @tmezTv if you come back down to NZ you should arrange a ride in a Superstock.. I think you would love it
Uhh… I think that’s a bit too brutal for a sprint car driver haha
Awesome great to see you over here this my 1st watch on your channel so all weekend will be on it 👍
Well done, I knew you'd get your head around the car and get it dialed in, more testing tomorrow it'll be even better 👍
You definitely need to come back to NZ and get in a superstock on the dirt!!!
Before they went to the fairgrounds.looks like Howard readings 3 car
Excited to see more.
Would love to see you have a go on the dirt at such as bradford..think you would be on the money with that
Sounds like a beast, looks like if you would flip that, it would be a lot of hard hits with all those heavy bumbers and nerfs
That's the idea! Well, kind of.

GOOD luck for the weekend 🎉
Good to see the Dub’0 car there to show off to the locals too. Good Luck Tmez!
We’ll be watching the whole weekend from Las Vegas.
Thank you!
@@tmezTvYou werent lying in your interview… I have no idea what I’m watching… Its very hard to follow all of it.
But glad I did!
Great to see you over here in the UK. You will enjoy the racing. I can make it this year, as I am in Greece with my wife.
That is Lincoln Cathedral. The castle is opposite.
Wish there was more of this on continental Europe
They race them in the Netherlands. Near the Belgium and German border we have few tracks. They run on shale and tarmac. Even a few grass tracks sometimes. If you want more info let me know!
Great seeing the tmez running stock cars in the uk 💪💪💪
Kinda reminds me of supermodifieds at the old s.j. speedway
Dude, absolutely awesome ! You are living your best life! I'm gonna come talk to you in person!
Like Martinsville. Diamond the corner a little, once it sets, like an egg under the throttle.

Is there a Mad Max film being filmed nearby?.........these things look like a bunch of fun!
When I first saw how early you were lifting and how late on the throttle I thought wow the car is off a bit. Then I think I heard you say 4000 lbs. that explains it. I ran 2500 lb
modifieds.
1/4 mile Tmez?
Looks like you might do a Ricci Faria and bend the headrest forward.
Is it louder in the car then when you watch it
Looks like a lot of game for bumper car racing.. kinda wants you to give it a try .. good luck ..let's see you beat those guys
Is that the dub 00 sprint car i seen in back ground?? whats going on with that?
My guess would be that Rob Speak (the promoter/owner of Skeggy, the bald dude who talked to him towards the end) is planning on doing some kind of demo run or race at some point during the weekend.
The Castle? That is Lincoln Minster ...a Cathedral (like a big church).....the Castle is round the corner and is impressive in in itself.
Traffic is absolutely unreal here mate over populated! Can take me a hour to do 5 miles in Nottingham
When's the last time you ran asphalt? Have fun Thomas enjoy the change of view and another day at the office
Pretty sure Thomas ran a Midget on Pavement a year or so ago..
Living your best life 👟 go get em T-Mez!!
Came for the race stayed for the bae 😻😂 no disrespect love seeing yall together such a cute couple! Love the video T mex 😊
curious...what with the tred and not slicks like hoosiers?
Hoosier used to be a tyre supplier for the sport many years ago, but we now use American Racer. But, to answer your question, they don't use slicks as they race on dirt as well as asphalt, so they need the grip. At least, that is my best (educated) guess.
@@captainnutnut6077 thanks..was thinking slicks on asphalt...tred on dirt..hope t-mez does well
@kendaumen862 me too! I'm a new fan, having been introduced to him because of his entry into this event. He seems to have taken to the car like a duck to water, but it will be fascinating to see what he makes of the contact aspect!
In the UK they also race in the wet so the tred helps when that happens.
@@artodythings they seemed to need full wet tyres in the final! Frankie said as much in his post-race interview, but I digress. 😅
I’m just wondering how did tmez get his sprint car there
Sounds like it could use a lot wider rear tire, sure has plenty of grunt. Good luck👍🏽
got a massive outside rear but a rally car tyre on the inside
TmezTv gets to run the Bridge on wheels!!
I would love to see you in an asphalt late model. 💯 Percent you would be a stud
You looked quick Tmez. Let's see what happens when the bumpers start flying
What is that scraping sound when you hit the corner? ❤
0:57, wait go back!!! 🤙
Wait till you feel the contact . Going round in you own is ok but you need to get used to the contact aspect. The bumpers are not there for nothing.
World traveler, suit case packed. Race somewhere every week. You bet. “The best life”. Cy on track john
Thats the cathedral, not the castle 🙈
you might have a hard time tearing that piece up.
Where to next? Monaco?😂😂😂
don t let them talk you into driving a banger those guys are loopy
Now you have done this for real, what do you think? Did you and are you having fun?
I watched them race in Australia on you tube, I was told if you finish 1st and your teammate finishes in the top 5 you win the race, is it the same in the UK, and are there other combination to win? I'm from Milwaukee,Wisconsin, was involved in Modifieds, Sprints, midgets from 1974 to 1992
No teammates in the uk
@@harveyobrien923 like an oval track demo derby, lol
Did the race team / fans help pay your expenses to fly over and stay? Do you get paid a portion of your winnings?
Huh! Going asphalt racing after dirt is definitely a change of pace. In general, dirt wingless racing you can make 6 mistakes per lap and not get passed. Usually, in asphalt wingless, one mistake and someone is passing.
She always looks pissed.
What in the safety sally frankenwagon is that thing? 😂

It's a brisca F1 stock car, sprint cars with bumpers and is the best oval motorsport on the planet.. 👍👍👍
Reminds me of a winged modified.
Enjoy being outside your comfort zone. Enjoy.
At 13:59 is a sprint car ? What are you not telling us? ....Good one!!
That's the track owners own car, he bought it on a previous trip over to the US I believe
I wondered the same thing and it’s got TMEZ name plate on the front of the wing 🤔🤔
@@Smitty2004 in the meeting schedule for tomorrow it has pre meeting entertainment including a T Mez feature, so maybe he's doing some demo laps
Heavy cars.
For a reason
looks like a Super Modified
looks like running TREADED tires.. put Slicks on'
@@Bandit-vg6wbControl tyre. Full slicks are not allowed.
Is he even aware that these are full contact racing? hehe
These races are like bumper cars,
It's a Abby mate.
Yes she dose, a star war look,you should get her the episodes of them, that’s right , your woman is hot, beautiful and living your best life with you, thanks BigAl California
No wonder guys come to the US to race ........

You got married….?😊
What a shitfight,, an obese car with a decent engine running on bitumen with dirt tyres!! What could go wrong. Running a wingless Sprintcar to those would be about the same as driving the grader to racecar
Racing? More like a war zone....
Sorry couldn’t finish watching. It’s just not my cup of tea
I almost forgot how boring asphalt racing is/ was . Good thing for dirt racing. I'd say it's the most fun you can have with your pants on lol
Just wait until you see 30+ of those bad boys on the track at full tilt with the bumpers flying in! The World Final itself is going to be *bedlam*! Just wait and see what his videos after the weekend are like! 🤪

@@Modstox205Racing last time at Skeg was 2018 but your point still stands 🙂
