Rocco is over the moon with the shout out . Thanks Ricky, buzzing to pick the car up 🔥🔥
Ingenious cheats, ford in WRC Focus had a titanium tank hidden behind the rear bumper to store boost pressure so on the over run the pressure was stored in the tank and then used as anti lag when coming back on throttle.

You've gotta dare Toprak to put an REP sticker on the bottom of his bellypan 😂
Love the vids! Top job
Just got home wondering how the hell I can cope with the amount of work I have. You've just put into words exactly what I'm feeling. Quite simply, thank you.
In awe of your honesty and most people will never understand the mental stress, on top of the physical stress. I sincerely hope the best for the future and cannot wait to wait to follow the progress.
Cuddling Toprak? Valentino will get jealous.
Appreciate your honesty. Truth is that until you get to a certain level, running your own business is a 24/7 job. You deserve every iota of success.
Thank you.
Toprak is a superstar and very humble in my opinion. We went on Sunday he’s in a different league.
Magnets on the gas pedal. Brilliant.
That's what Joe Gibbs Racing was busted doing during a post-race chassis dynamometer test of their Nationwide Series cars on Saturday afternoon at Michigan. During the test, which is used to measure horsepower output, the magnets kept NASCAR inspectors from being able to fully open up the throttles of Tony Stewart and Joey Logano's JGR Camrys. If you can't drop the hammer all the way, you can't accurately measure the amount of top end power the engine is producing, thus skewing the test results and not fully showing the team's Toyota-powered hand.
Truly admirable honesty!
You deserved the hug from Toppers. Really enjoying watching you go onwards and upwards 👍
Rick, you’re obviously doing a lot really well and I imagine it’s easy to forget that. I really enjoy your content, the insight into running a highly successful business, the knowledge and your opinion. I am sure you’re going to make it work, get some support and press on boy! You’re doing a great job. Russ
Combe would be brilliant!!
Been trying to find time to take my lad there for ages!
Have 5 kids myself and yeah that balance of not knowing where you are sometimes does get to you!
Keep up the fantastic work but more importantly take care of yourself!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Hopefully the weather stays OKfor Combe - not perfect right now, but not terrible either. Will be there supporting the young lady again, we need a full 3 races with wins in all three to make a dent in the championship standings. Doable, but obviously not easy! ;)
Good luck, and hopefully have a few minutes for a quick chat at some point.
There was a NASCAR team that acid dipped (?) so much of the bodywork away they had to warn the crew not to lean on it. There’s a VinWiki episode about the greatest cheats.
smokey yunick I beleive
A few teams did it in US Stock car racing. They also acid dipped engine blocks 🫣 It's all described in Mark Donohue's excellent book "The Unfair Advantage"
Take on a business consultant. They are worth their weight in gold ( I'm not one ) but with one I'm sure you will move onwards and upwards. Great content wish you the best of success. You deserve it 😊
For the E63 do a ZF HP8 swap with a Lamik controller… means you have access to good, very strong auto with total manual control 👍
Stay strong chief 👍
Ahhhh 😂 that’s the Tight like a Tiger ref. Noice
Sir Mixalot number plate on the McLaren on the DYNO 😂
Hi Ricky, just wanted to say I love your channel and content, your knowledge and high level of workmanship are obvious. Running a business sounds bloody stressful, hopefully your new hires will help and allow you a better work/life balance. I know you said you're bad at this but make sure you do take time out for you.
If I'm ever lucky enough to own an R8 or Lambo, you'd be my port of call even though I live nowhere near Swindon!
Hope you do a fix it vid of the Lambo. Was at WSB Sat & Sun, at the top of Craner Curves, Toprack was on another planet coming through there.
Anyone remember McLarens F-duct in F1, it would disturb the air over the rear wing allowing the car to go faster. Pretty much what the DRS does now.
How did you get in to bmw to see top stoppy toprack
Business coach sounds like an excellent idea, for business and personal sustainability. Hope you do.
Hi Ricky . Question for you , years ago a friend of my dads told me that to save fuel put big wheels on the back and small wheels on the front that way you are always going downhill , will the speedo read correctly 😂 . On a serious note love the videos especially the more engineering fault finding based one’s . Keep up the good work
I think you’ve built the company up to a very reputable position and the work will continue to keep coming because of it so you’re at the point where you have to step back from workshop duties and be solely managing and running the company which is a hard thing to do, none of us like stepping back from the work we love doing and trusting others to keep your reputation intact. I couldn’t step back from being on the tools and just managing a business and for me that would make me walk away from it but to keep your sanity you have to be able to put your trust in others to do their job right and you have to just run the business
I love that you got acknowledged by Toprak - but you did go on your tip-toes..............
You did
hahahaha ooooooooooooooh
I think the phrase is 'Toprak Fan Boy!!'. My lad and i see you waiting outside the BMW trucks as we were waiting for the big man too. The Fella is Mega!! We were quite jealous when you and yours got taken down between the trucks. My lad said 'Tell Ricky you follow his RUclips and see if he can get us in?'. Thanks for saying 'Hi'. Great Channel!!!
Hahaha glad you enjoy it mate! Yeah I do some work for him.
100% on the nail again about business. Having an emergency spinal fusion when I prolapsed a disk at work a couple of years back forced me to re-evaluate how I work. I am a lot better now. I finish by a fixed time and what isn't done.....gets done tomorrow.
Bennetton f1 94. Secret traction control system
Ricky I know exactly where you're coming from, I know it's a bit different but I'm a self employed wagon driver. I was only off work 3 weeks with my replacement knee! I suppose I'm a bit luckier as I'm single, own my own house mortgage free & owe nothing other than a bit on the card! I still feel pressure to have to goto work! I drive a shitty Sèat altea but it's paid for & does 60+ to the gallon. It's not about what you have, it's about are you happy! Just make sure u keep Kate happy & you'll be winning 😉
Always a great video, thanks guys, hi Kate 👍
Thanks for watching! Hi 👋
Re: the best cheats.... one of them I remember is a guy from the early 90's, (who shall remain nameless) who was competing in the Rover Tomcat Championship. To get around people 'chipping' their ECU's, they were controlled by the organisers and handed out randomly to competitors at each meeting. He was only caught when in post race scrutineering, his ECU was removed during an inspection and taken aside. Unknowingly, one of his mechanics went over to the car, started it and went to drive away.... with the ECU in one of the scrutineers hands.... Oooops, I guess that one was just for show then...😂I've got plenty more! 108 Octane 'Legal' fuel (from the pump) but I'll save them for another day!
Did you take the Yaris Hybrid to Donny???? 😂
good video, jealous you got access at Donnington cant believe Ducati, getting very petty. Hope you keep going don't let the w****rs grind you down
Ref a Coach, with your current plans your half way there; a Coach is anybody with a fresh pair of eyes and half a business brain, it’s a good idea to give it a try. If you want something more informal try looking around similar businesses that have made the transition from working in the business to managing it, and approach the boss and ask if he would explain his journey, you may well be surprised at the reaction, they are probably lonely too 🙂
Classic partridge,"Aha". Fantastic
Everyone thinks it's a breeze running your own business, employees can go home at a set time and leave work at work....as a gaffer you never switch off, alot of times I go to sleep at night and wake up thinking/worrying about a job. After 42 years in business it never gets any easier or less stressful....
THATS WHY I WAS ALWAYS AN INDIAN. DO YOUR JOB TO THE BEST OF YOUR ABILITY. THEN GO HOME TO THE WIFE AND KIDS . I HOPE HE DELEGATES THE WORK TO FREE UP TIME FOR HIM AND THE FAMILY. ONEY TIME WILL TELL .
Superleg looks fantastic in what must be a rare colour
Ford focus 2003 WRC air tank behind the rear bumper provided boost for engine when turbo off boost... Sneaky but it worked
Not another Rossi fan….🎉❤ 😊 he makes a bike dance…
In the 1960s, Mark Donohue and Penske of NASCAR began experimenting with a drag racing technique to make their Camaros lighter and faster by dipping them in an acid bath. They were able to get the car about 250 pounds lighter
Standard procedure in the British Saloon Car Championship when standard shells were being used.
You deffo hugged him
Hey Ricky, can you give us some idea how much good Tech is making at your shop? Or if that is secret, hum much your Tech was making working for Ferrari? Thanks
Hey up good video, smokey did some pretty cool rule? Bending
I remember wrc ford focus with the air pipes for keeping on boost
I am sure it was Smokey Yunik who wanted to run the car lower so to get it over the ride height check he froze the dampers a bit higher then the car lowered itself when they defrosted. I read most of his book but in the end could stomach the style it was written in but he did lead a very interesting life during WW2.
As for a business coach, been there and got the T shirt. The best coach most business owners have got is their wife if you are prepared to let her manage it which is different to actually the day to day management on the shop floor.
Tyrell cheated on the weight in F1 by injecting 140 lbs of lead shot into the fuel tank at the end of the race.
Ricky another brilliant video keep them coming toprack was amazing at donington very special rider different gravy Valentino Rossi is still my favourite and always will be glad your a Rossi fan too 👍🐐
Hey there, recently came across your channel and love it, subscribed.
Just a comment about you mentioning cheating in motorsport (Toyota) I'm sure ford stored air or boost in an enlarged bumper on the focus wrc car to be used later.
Ricky
When you work for one company you have one Boss
Working for yourself every customer becomes your Boss.
I worked for my father for many years and the most difficult amount of hours, let alone chasing payments 😱😱😱😱
Very stressful and staff & customers don’t understand the grief.

With the water tanks in formula 1 it was masquerading as cooling for the brakes. In reality they would dump it all really quickly and run light all race and replenish it after the chequered flag as you could do this before the car was weighed, an exploitative move by the teams running atmo engines against the more powerful turbo engines.very crafty
Would a good old Tremec not deal with the Merc 6.2?
Your a legend and a realist 💯🫡
Ricky I have a abwood manual surface grinder very tight going cheap cheap
Check legit street cars for C63 stuff. Alex did an amazing build with his….big power 💥💥
Fellas your thumbnail features a broken rare Lambo which gets about 20 seconds of coverage in 32 minute video.
There will be another video on it. This is an update episode.
@@REPerformanceUK sure but as a viewer when I click a thumbnail I expect to see a video about whatever is in the thumbnail. Your diehard subscribers might watch every video regardless but casual RUclips browsers will be put off by it.
@@schmuppetify Well how do we do a thumbnail covering 10 cars in an update vid?
@@REPerformanceUK perhaps keep the videos focussed on a single topic, eg a single car, q&a, workshop update, specific technical issue, etc. It’s your channel and you can do whatever you like but if people click a video expecting one thing and they get another it’s not going to help grow your viewers.
You are the first complaint……….
I did stand next to you then you went off and the man come out said I'm after Ricky any 1 called Ricky I said yes me 😂
Take a certain person to run a business unfortunately I didn't manage to lots of stress people instantly think you got a massive pot of money look after yourself Ricky love the vlogs great but of kit in your workshop 👌
You did say it was a seal or drains and you was going to sort it later.
Hi Ricky, fantastic video really made me chuckle just a thought on your new units. Obviously you use vast amounts of electricity. Have you thought about putting solar panels on the top with a battery storage units? If you’ve got a self facing roof? Just a thought to try and save you some money? I’m just having mine installed from a guide just around by Taunton. He’s small business prices are very good compared with all the grab them wants to charge your fortune and he’s not a hard self. He just told you the truth doesn’t hustle you just a thought if you need his number give me a shout. Keep up the good work and I think I’ve already got tickets for Coombe in two weeks time, so I’ll see you there. Bring some T-shirts.
Let's make Toprak into MotoGp.He will ride a motorcycle in a complicated manner.
Hahaha
Ricky , you hit on cheating in racing ,I know a guy that used his roll cage in a top race series on ovals filled with nitrous to give him more power out of the bands needless to say he won a huge amount of races ! Never got caught !
Get 2 part resin paint ricky
Oooooooooooooh VALENTINOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOH
I think you're ace, Valentino..............
hahaha couldn't fall in love with an Englishman called Mike, oh no, it has to be VALENTINO....................
OOOOOOOOOOOH hahahaha
I didn’t grow up watching Mike……. Valentino is the GOAT!
Mate it’s the joy of self employment 🤷♂️🤷♂️
Everyone thinks your rich having toys
But when there in the house at 5 and paid holidays paid sick 🤷♂️😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
What fuel is best and consistant v power?
What 99 fuel do you use for tuning ricky.
Tesco or shell..?
Call me a snob I use shell
My wife runs her own business, 35 employees and sh works all hours of the day when she isn't asleep... Always works on holiday as well :( I'm a salaried drone who clocks off when the clock says finish... She would hate my life, and I would hate hers...
LET ME GIVE YOU SOME OF THE BEST ADVICE. FAMILY AND FRIEND ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS IN LIFE LAD . AND LEARN TO TRUST AND SHARE THE LOAD . THAT IT LAD TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT .
There's a guy on RUclips who's just brought a hurican salvage car off Matt Armstrong and he needs many parts I,ve messaged him and told him to look at you site as you might be able to help him his page is saving salvage thought it might make good content
Ricky you didn't need to tell any of us arm chair quarterbacks where the water came from. The oxidized components and corroded electrical indicated it was long term. As you are the mechanic and not a body shop is the roof, windows and rubber seals even your job. The owner had to know they had a leak as someone unplugged the seatbelt mic connections it was a long term known issue. I would expect based on the evidence the owner new it was leaking and didnt do anything about it. The question is did you eat the repair for a fault you didnt cause or explain it to them and bill them for it.
Short memory, rider weight rule change came about through other teams bitching about Ducati - so various teams have whinged over the years, depends who's winning!!
And Redding's still doing no better - funny that!!!
Do you not think modern engine are ugly? i understand its becasue they are more complicated but back in the day you popped the bonnect and you had a nice rocker cover and an inlet maniffold or Carb. now you remove the engine cover if its not already set your car on fire and it looks like a crime scene from Blade Runner
Love your honesty about the work questions.... Do you ever get shit from customers because of the time you do videos..
Do you have a job that you hate whenever it gets asked for? I.e r8 with flooded ecu ...
Do you also get people who specially want you to do work...i e engine room stuff
FWR BOB random lol
Did the better half have any Concert rage ?
Nope no need not an umbrella in sight 😂😂
@@REPerformanceUKtotaly different subject I did some work at McLaren in the 90’s and teams always looking for the edge ,McLaren found. A super rare metal the help with bore wear so bought 90% of the worlds supply Ferrari found out complained and it got band😂😂
Fitted a machine at BAR back in the day and wandered round the factory and got told again back in the 90’s nobody built wind tunnels company wise so BAR built there own for £5M crazy to think that no company’s built them as the market was so small
Are you willing to sell Kate?
Kate says only if you’re Harry Styles 😂
@@REPerformanceUKshe must like it when he flicks his mullet
Something like that..
@@REPerformanceUK Bagger, I am bold (My hair is growing inside my head) 🤪
They did complain about Alvaro, it’s why they put weight on the bike. As for Razza he is just far too good for WSB. Time he was in MotoGP. He is outstanding…..Also very cool…. I hate him !!!!!
11:50 Michael Jordan used to get a $5000 each time he wore his trainers in a match because they were not to the 'correct' specification i.e. 51% white...
The NBA would fine Michael every match because of what you said. Nike would pay that fine. I only know because I watched Air last night. 😂
American here - is "half six" 5:30, or is it like Americans saying "half past 6" and meaning 6:30?
6-30
99% of my staff don’t understand 😂
And just getting up 1hr a day for 3 days a week helped me get my shit together
It was good at first running your own business but after 30 years i hate it your time is never your own good video 😊
So we all hate electric vehicles . Are you worried about your long term future ,10 to 15 years time with the current push for all manufacturers to move to electric .
You are wasted with your camera man n his poor editing. The channel won't really grow at speed. You've got exciting cars that can be filmed n people love dyno vids. You are similiar to the guys in America who do the R8/Huracans. Your content is hugely undersold by your poor camera man and content creator. Your videos are like diy vlogs.
Honda Spares Man or Martin Scorsese? Make your mind up
That's the whole point. It's a vlog not a cinematic piece. FML
