@@pariodeusex no worries mate

@@Monty3540 yep he can definitely still be outspoken, theres recent evidence of that in formula e recordings. The first few years of uk f4 with this car had some amazing talent on the grid that have all gobe really far in international racing, shows the strength we have in uk racing grids

Yeah pretty special, thanks for watching

@@pariodeusex youre welcome buddy, if you guys keep watching i'll keep posting

@@pariodeusex actually thats a lie, i'll just post them anyway! Lol

@@SpeedBrazilOficial youre welcome, plenty more to come! 👍

@@pariodeusex yeah we got notification in late december, and up til then were supposed to be doing asian le mans and then michelin cup again so it came as quite a shock it happening that suddenly. Most of the mechs went to the rlr squad for this year

@@justinbelshe yeah, but expensive ones!

@@user-hh1dm5ff9d sorry dont get it?

@@shuntmonkey6024 it's what I say when I don't know what to say

@@user-hh1dm5ff9d i usually hear any of a number of swear words over the radio from the driver, kooky is not one ive heard i dont think, haha

@shuntmonkey6024 Feel free to articulate its ambiguous nature in your travels. Cuz things be kooky man!

@@user-hh1dm5ff9d hahaha, had some huge crashes in front of us over the last week, next time they tell me about them ill react with "kooky man, box this lap"

Yep, dont know whats worse, a shunt on the first lap or do the whole race and shunt on the last lap!

Yep, hes definitely not bad

Relatively cheap cars to go quickly in, at this stage they were still hovering around 100k pounds which is good for the laptime you could get

Yeah euro masters was well supported and quite competitive throughout which meant lots of battling

The gt3s are pretty evenly matched, and theyre all pushing really hard as you can see fron the mistakes that happen. Brad is a very good driver, he's against pro drivers in the other cars too at this point. Stay tuned for part 2 and 3 if you like it, dropping over the next few weeks! Thanks

Yeah this era of gt3 are cool cars, and the aston sounds great

@@shuntmonkey6024 Yeah, a paradise for ears huh)

A few more races to add yet, then that'll be the entire msa f4 season in the 2015 playlist. When did he race radicals, after this i assume as i thought he came straight here from karting

I think i've got him confused with another driver with exactly the same name, I thought he switched to F4 when he stopped posting have done some quick research and it appears it is two different guys lol. Both are very talented drivers however, I think he might even hold the lap record for a 4 banger radical at many tracks as hes faster than a Sr3.

Yep everyone likes a shunt! Probably bent the rear suspension in some way when he got tagged

@@shuntmonkey6024 Ahahah yes. Yes, it probably happens a lot.

Thanks, yeah it is a cool car and James is a good driver. He drove it in 2014 or 2015 in the Silverstone Elms race from what I remember, I'll see if I have any footage remaining from that to upload at some point. Be some great old cars on that grid

Yep, the old track with the oval mustve been amazing

No problem, was it you that requested radical and lmp3 in the buymeacoffee chat? I don't recognise your username that's all.

@@shuntmonkey6024 yeah it was me, Imola up next I assume.

@@pariodeusex Many thanks again for that, I've found Silverstone LMP2, my 2013 Le Mans car, the Jann Mardenborough Gran Turismo one, running it at the 2021 Silverstone Classic.

Nurburgring 25th May and Spa 29th, then RedBullRing 15th June with an SR8 again, and I've got Dijon as a possibility for LMP3 on the 19th. UK stuff inbetween, the formula ford one seems very popular!

@@shuntmonkey6024 sounds great, thanks!

I'll have a few more from the year I'm sure when I can dig them out, he's gone on to be very successful in GT3 type machinery I believe, particularly in Europe.

@@shuntmonkey6024 Yes, most of his videos are about Nurburgring, but he hasn't released any videos for two years.

@@bassiliskos Well I'll keep putting his stuff out across the next few years, got a huge archive as sometimes I was running 5 cars a weekend and they each had 3 races. Scheduled out releases for each Saturday and Wednesday at midday if you want to see.

@@shuntmonkey6024 Yes, of course I want to see it! 15 races per weekend, an unrealistically huge amount of material should accumulate over 25 years!

@@bassiliskos Yeah I'll still be adding it in 10 years time most likely!

I'm the race engineer, still doing it! Martin's a great guy and really committed racer, last I saw him he was in the Chinese Touring Car Championship

@@shuntmonkey6024 Wow, cool, what kind of racing series are you currently working on? What year's Chinese Touring Car Championship?

Trying to think, I saw him in Shanghai, so would have been Asian Le Mans Series in either 2019, 20 or 21 have a search around that time. For me so far this year, Michelin Le Mans Cup, GT Cup, GB3 and will be British GT too, for now.

@@shuntmonkey6024 It's been relatively a while since you've seen him. Le Mans Cup is very cool! Have you ever managed to work with racers who came from sim racing, or are most of them from karting?

@@bassiliskos Funnily enough I worked on arguably the most famous sim racers biggest race, in 2013 I was at Le Mans doing data/strategy/driver coaching on the Greaves LMP2 that finished 3rd in class, it was the playstation/Gran turismo/Nissan Academy sponsored car driven by Jann Mardenborough, Lucas Ordonez and Michael Krumm. I don't have any footage from that year which is absolutely gutting but if you look at the Le Mans 2014 footage I have put on here, that is the same car, same team, same chassis number. Didn't really appreciate it at the time but looking back it was an enormous deal for him to come through and drive at Le Mans after winning the Gran Turismo tournament. Really nice guy also, great and easy to work with and very quick. Got to engineer that car again at the Silverstone classic 2 years ago when it was being put up for sale, lovely bit of kit.

Yeah lap 1 was interesting

Awesome mate, was a great fun year with you, im going to be digging through all that season and uploading it, looking forward to seeing the collossal slide at snett through coram again. Any you can remember that'd be good to get on here?

He was very young here, we spent a week working on qual and race pace and feeling the tyre drop off, next race meeting he qualified on the front row and finished on the podium, massive steps in a short time

Yes my friend! Was a good fun year with some great races, disappointed to only get 2nd in the championship but that yellow one was soooo fast on the straights

You're welcome mate, let us know how you get on in the civic!

Yeah, but they do make some amazing crashes, and there's some that if you hit them just right they can help a bit, exit of turn 1 at RedBull Ring for example. Very easy to just lose traction or even launch the car.

Most come to F4 from Karting, don't know the exact numbers but probably around £200-250k for a full season, and I have heard it's often cheaper than the last year of karting for these guys.

Yeah he was pretty good, had the caterham academy interest when they had the F1 sponsorship which is why the car is in those colours. Probably a win if he hadn't ran wide at Clearways and let 2 cars through, live and learn.

A bit like Outrun?

Yeah he was doing ok up til that point, very early on in the season so everyone had lots to learn, most coming straight from karting, afew from ginetta juniors

Which bit is making you say that?

Thanks Fabrizio, saw my old formula ford driver from 2009 at the weekend so will branch out into that championship too shortly, such a huge back catalogue to get through!

@@shuntmonkey6024 I wish you good results, bye Fabrizio

His aggression was really good in traffic, helped him come through a lot of places

Hi, thanks for watching

It's not the best start to a weekend, can't win at the first corner but can definitely lose!

Maybe if it was the Nordschleife then yeah! A few more hills in Germany rather than flat old Norfolk
