    reminds me of the best time of my life when I drove the 370Z Race car + JPLM + Ariel Atom + Caterham during the 2016 GT Academy competition. Highlight of that day was without a shadow of a doubt the JPLM!!! boy that thing felt like a rocket!

    • @tome1903
      @tome1903 7 лет назад

      I prefer most types of drag racing. Formula racing of any kind tends to have engines that are way to high pitched for my liking, while most drag cars are built with high displacement v8's that have a really deep rumble to them.

    • @C42ST3N
      @C42ST3N 7 лет назад +1

      The Palmer F3000 are not the real F3000 V8 cars before the GP2 came up. The palmer car just has half the power and less downforce. Its a complete different car actually.

  • @TheBTRGarage
    @TheBTRGarage 7 лет назад

    That looks like amazing fun! For a minute there, I thought you were going to need a new shirt if you lost all day to Matt "pretty much *not* a racing driver anymore" xD

  • @pawelkusmierek109
    @pawelkusmierek109 7 лет назад

    Wow. I did the BMW 4 + Formula 4 at Brands Hatch, and it was immense fun. I did not like the BMW that much, it did not feel so direct, maybe because all nannies were left on by the instructor. But the F4 car was a blast.
    This looks like even more fun with all the variety of cars and much more track time. (Well, to be honest, my track time in the F4 car was cut short when a guy in front of me cut me off, and trying to avoid the collision, I got onto grass, spun out, and crashed into the barrier...)

    3:12 You can see exactly why you failed in the go-kart. Solid axle. You should be *not* leaning to the inside of the corner. By doing so you are limiting your kart's engine upon exit.

    How big is the damage on the wallet?
    I know that the fun-factor compensate (and a lot, it is a FREACKING F-3k, for the Queen's sake!) a lot, but still, all that I need to know now, is the price, so I can save and do it too!
