Another excellent video Philip - super editing of F/R cameras, plus the commentary added immensely to the viewing experience :13:
A great race to watch  :great:
Well done Clive, awesome driving to hold off the Civic and dealing with those back markers  :notworthy:

I gave the the Civic three goes at me to work out if it was aggression (which it was) then just drove him the same way there after!

The back markers came in handy as I slowed it little at times to use them against him, which seemed to work OK  ;)

All the best Clive

Good going
That civic really wanted to share a bit of his paint at times .
How bad did the broken wing affect yourhandling Clive ?

Best way to answer the rear wing question is, fastest lap was on lap 3 -----------then the wing broke ;D
First time for everything
I've heard of driving the wheels off a car
Just never the wing lol

It is really good to see a variety of cars competing against each other, especially seeing the cincentina effect into and out of corners with the other cars and different lines in the corners.

Am I right in saying that the civic makes up  time in the corners possibly because it is lighter? But once you get into the straighter bits you can make up ground with hp you have?

The civic on the Last lap he must have thought there was extra 1/4 mile to go before he needed to brake into that corner he went so wide he almost ended up at the airport

Now I'm no expert but throwing more momentum into a corner on a FWD only equates to Do not pass go, do not turn right, do not collect £200, go to jail, straight through the grass and onto the next county

Thank you Malcolm. I know you appreciate what it takes to sync the footage from two cameras and the commentary :)

I'm pleased you enjoy the videos I create from Clive's fantastic races. This is why I enjoy doing them for you all.

The winter diet begins, my new fibre doors have arrived :).

Going to make these even lighter though, as the inner skin panel  that holds the window mechanism will get cut out.
All the best Clive
