Thruxton - Crash and Action - BARC Weekend - July 2024
The action from what is sadly my only race meeting in July... That's right, I'm going on a little summer break with nothing on now until August (however I might try to go to JDM Combe for an action day in a couple weeks).
A pretty good weekend over all, I would have preferred to have been at the end chicane but for these bigger events you'd probably have to get up at the crack of dawn to see that viewing area...
Right off the bat Saturday morning we were prepared for Sundays church break after one of the Olivers fancied a closer look at what goes on behind the barriers. Other than a few broken ribs Stuart was okay, but same cannot be said about the truck and the wall, with an hour and a half delay to the day required to sort it all out. The rest of the weekend saw the most erratic weather conditions, bringing with it some slippery action, but main thing is we all went home in one piece.

Donington Park - Crash and Action - MSVR Weekend - June 2024
zhlédnutí 3,3KPřed 28 dny
Feels like I've spent an awful lot of time at Donington this year, but provided I don't change my mind I think this is my penultimate visit of 2024. When I saw this meeting earlier on in the year, I only knew that the EnduroKA was racing and nothing else, but that was enough for me to want to go and watch. Turns out the 'support' racing was about as good as it gets, with Caterhams, Legends and ...

The action from an incredibly warm, cloudless weekend of racing at Donington Park from the BRSCC. Irritatingly I was prepared for a good bit of shade from the clouds, at least that's what the weather apps said; unfortunately I spent two days being slow-roasted instead... The highlight of the weekend was the C1 Endurance race, and obviously it was as good as ever; though I must say I was surpris...
Castle Combe - Crash and Action - BARC Weekend - June 2024

The action from a 2 day race meeting at Castle Combe, an event that this year in particular I had really been looking forward to. A visit from the BARC is something that Castle Combe hasn't seen in a short while (for example I know the last visit for the Caterham Graduates was all the way back in 2018), but it was so refreshing to have some of their very competitive championships get a full wee...

Just a one day race meeting on the Silverstone National circuit this time around courtesy of the Classic Sports Car Club. We saw a good selection of their championships, most of which were on the classic end of the scale, and with the help of some healthy grids we all had another great days racing. Had a fair few strange incidents this time around, including an MG that found the inside wall bef...

The action from the 750 Motor Club's visit to Castle Combe, or to give it an alternative title; the action from the 750MC Hot Hatch Championship Class C drivers... I'd seen that Castle Combe was getting a visit from the 750MC earlier in the year and from that moment I could not wait for this meeting! The Civics were brilliant as ever, the Hot Hatches were fantastic all round, Formula Fords are ...

The thrills and the spills from the first visit to what was a rather sunny Silverstone for the 750 Motor Club, this time taking place on the national layout of the circuit. I feel like I'm repeating myself again here, but at yet another circuit I've had to relocate due to the old filming location being compromised by new fencing. Honestly this change doesn't really seem to drastic, only issue b...

zhlédnutí 13KPřed 2 měsíci
Despite being incredibly wet and slippery pretty much all day, this was actually quite an uneventful race meeting. However that does not by any stretch of the imagination make it boring; I mean we had a grid of 40 Fords, most of which were Escorts and Sierras, now you can't tell me that's boring! Only downside were the fairly sizeable delays after an accident in the first Modified Ford race too...

zhlédnutí 2,6KPřed 2 měsíci
It was a bit of a toss up between this event and the Historic Festival at Donington, but I think I made the right call... With Thruxton being a very fast circuit with a good few 'straight' sections, it makes it one hell of a circuit for slipstreaming; and with a couple of one make championships, a group of tight bends is always going to make it a bit tasty. All in all, fantastic racing all roun...

The action from the 750 Motor Clubs visit to Brands Hatch, a weekend where the real winners were the ones that took their cars home in one piece... Jokes aside this was another top tier meeting from the club, just as they always are, but the weather was all over the place and made the track really unpredictable. It's not very often I come away from a Brands Hatch race meeting with a video longe...

The action from the recent MSVR race weekend at Donington Park, which took place on the national layout of the circuit. The headliner for this event was the GT Cup, and as I'm sure many of you are aware by now, GT racing just isn't my thing (and unfortunately still isn't). However, all of the 'support' races looked pretty good to me, which is what persuaded me to go to this event; it's safe to ...

On paper, this was always going to be quite an eventful meeting with almost all visiting championships being more-or-less a one make series, and lets just say this weekend did not disappoint... With on the absolute limit racing all weekend and some pretty packed grids, you're always going to get a few incidents along the way; in some of the championships I'm sure not a single car went home with...

Finally, we're back at Brands Hatch, the circuit I do seem to visit more than any other. To start us off we've got action from the BARC as they continue with their annual Truck Racing Easter weekend meeting, and as per usual, the event did not disappoint. Changeable conditions and close racing is always a good mix for spicing things up with some heart in mouth moments, and this meeting was not ...

The action from my first BARC meeting of 2024, featuring the BEC, Britcar, CTCRC, Mini 7 Racing Club and the Superkarts at Donington. A pretty uneventful meeting overall, but that's not to say the racing wasn't fantastic! I've always said that unfortunately I'm not a huge fan of the BEC; just too much variation in classes for not enough cars racing over a 2 hour period. However everything else ...

A weekend that not only went wrong for some of these drivers, but also went a bit topsy-turvy for me. Rather irritatingly, preceding the Saturday lunch break, my SD decided that breaking was the preferred option, and therefore I lost all of my footage from qualifying... I wasn't going to let this get me down and managed to come away with action from the rest of another excellent Classic Sports ...

Obviously a very popular sport...these rolly-pollies flip if you just sneeze on them 😅
Every like this gets, I will do 20 push-ups every second on this comment
@bill brockbank. See badgerwagon v1 make an appearance
I remember my first time driving a car too
I remember my first time driving a car too
I thought the English would be brilliant wet weather drivers ... but yes racing in the rain can be a lottery. But some don't understand their cars braking performance ... lol
excelent video, was there on the Saturday had a great time
Was that a truck that just drifted at 0:26
hi can i ask what video camera do you used please
1. How was the driver from the first truck wreck......and 2, how is it you always know when something happens when you point your camera in that direction???
Driver was fine
Cracked ribs but smiling as per usual with Stuart Oliver, and back in the paddock the same evening. Did not race again that weekend @@camsmith6034
2 broken ribs, 2 cracked ribs, slightly deflated lung and a brused spleen - but released thst day - needs to take it easy for week.
The barriers really aren't meant for those trucks!!! We were there last year when one came over the barrier!!!
0:45 that’s how the gravel trap like that can cause the car to dig in and roll over
Where do you get tickets to watch events?
Go onto the circuit websites, click on an event that interests you and there will be ticket options available.
@@CarsAreRacing thanks. Stupid question sorry, was pretty obvious! I just booked tickets for the Ferrari challenge weekend. I'm interested in watching some events more like what you have filmed with different classes of cars like testing days etc
Never a stupid question, I'm always happy to help. Hope you enjoy the weekend!
I have crashed a ka at 70mph it rolled twice in the air and 3 times in the ground broke my spine and had to have l2 and l3 removed now i have a titanium bottle jack in my spine
Ouch
Was there on the Saturday next to you on the bank, great day! Majority of the action right in front of us but a shame about the Caterham accident
Do you have any footage from the BRSCC evolution races from Saturday?
I was there in the same place mate and nothing happened, didn’t get a single lap of racing due to two safety cars back to back
No unfortunately I don’t. I had some SD card issues and lost the footage, sorry!
Quite amazing really, a weekend with both the C1's and the City Cars at Donny, and no rolls down Craners. Great grid from the Modified Fords as usual as well 👍
Noticed that the left rear wheel from car 44 @1:41 came loose before the corner, that must've helped him spin
Always enjoy the c1 racers I was at sliverstone on the weekend very hot and rosed
Quarry corner allways catches them out😮
Footage of the accident is already out there so.....fat lot of good that did eh? IMO if everyone is ok it's better to get the footage out so everyone can learn from the incident and try to ensure it doesn't happen again, censoring it just makes it into a "streisand effect", a "forbidden fruit" that makes everyone want to see it more
I get that and do agree with you, but if someone asks me to not post it then I won’t ignore the request.
I get where you are coming from with Lessons and LfE learning positive and negative lessons and yes there is a lot to take away from this accident and embedding those lessons into practice. That said, as this accident was monstrous and yes everyone escaped ok it is polite and courteous to check with individuals concerned if footage can be shared and if they don't want it posted, this must be respected. The chap here has done absolutely the right thing. Alternatively (and a conversation would have to be had with the two involved to approve) is to see whether this footage could be shared to the club (or Motorsport UK) separately (limited distribution) to aid Marshall training which would be valuable learning.
im glad someone got the external view of my exhaust flying off and going under my wheel 15:57 could i use this in one of my posts
figured out how it came off???
@@peterhowe547 i think just over time the bracket got loose and it just came off when changing down gear
@@NCRacing I've seen a few exhaust pipes come undone at the track.
Yeah I have no problem with you using the footage.
Hi mate just checking if I can use the footage at 10:23 of my crash 😂 I had a brake failure wasn't just my driving but them barriers are mint as I was able to get my car back out for race 2 later that day
The barriers here are one of the best investments Combe have made, saved hundreds of cars in the last few years. You’re fine to use the footage!
Can confirm it was a brake failure, well done for checking about posting the footage (which I did too and is the correct thing to do) as it was a horrific accident, actually painful to watch but glad everyone is okay. Gutted for the Audi driver as she was going so well in mixed conditions.
Got his moneys worth for the cage tbf they barely get any use
Just gonna pretend I'm a little boy again, watching "Car Wars" on VHS
You should film the whole of the Thunder car race.
Always enjoyable - thanks!
i like the letters on the back of the cars , is this meant to represent the classes if so its smart and i would love to see this be a permanent feature on all club cars that race.
Yes it’s classes for HotHatch A/B/C, the sunstrip colour also denotes the class which is even better
What's wrong with the guy in the blue 106 ? Needs to wind it in !
Shame we missed the crashes at folly and camp!
My friends and I were right in front of both crashes. We were terrified to move somewhere else as it seemed wherever we went there were huge crashes!
@@joegarside2470 hahahaha, i was at quarry the whole time apart from that lunch break.
Not really a shame when people got injured…
@@izaklee5720 I wasn’t aware of any serious injuries?
@@sonicsupersam7793 gentleman in the clio at camp has a broken pelvis and possibly a lot more injuries
That blue 106 driver is a nutter lol 😂
Thumb up but WTF is this by the way xDD
Hot hatch
3:49. I bet his life flashed in front of his frog eyes!
Great video as usual mate Cheers
Great video again Jack 🎉
Thanks for bringing this content to us, this and the others 😀
Shame it rained heavily, again. That, along with the race full of fords ending early because of a crash before the quarry, and a long hold-up in the hot hatch race (I think it was the hot hatches) made for a very frustrating day.
11:07 here we see a type of species called Mazda they get angry and crash sometimes *then 3 of them crashes*
Such a shame about the weather, if I had been nice like the rest of the week would've been a much better day
After years of watching these highlight clips of big offs and crashes, I never thought I would actually appear in one of your videos haha 😆. (I was driving the black and fluorescent yellow Mini 0:48).
This looks like so much fun. I wish I had a track closer to do some novice learning events.
🎉
Shame stupid mx5s, everybody always crashing them because they suck
Brands Hatch is THE most exciting track in the UK from this spectator's perspective.
2:56 done me dirty there...
top quality racing 💀💀
great compilation
You would’ve had a field day if you were at Donington for BTCC. Both days saw loads of action and a big mini roll on Saturday.
@search4orlife 16:20 you’re famous!
