Seeing you guys in a more "non scripted" environment is refreshing and the content is very interesting! To be honest, contrary to my initial expectations, the racing part was excellent and extremely well presented! I loved it and it really got me involved, more so than most of the racing events televised these days. Well done! I wouldn't mind seeing you guys doing something similar again! :)

    Just when I thought you guys had topped out, you manage to find a way to not only go over the top, but way down the other side. Donating the car to such a worthy cause is a really, really special thing to do, especially a car that is so well sorted and so ready for many more people to enjoy. That you have the companies on board to provide all the goodies all around and make it a very complete package is even better. Finally, the charity is a top notch concept, and the fact that racers put their heart and soul into helping out such a deserving group makes it even better.
    Hate to see the car go, love to see the car go somewhere good, and my already high esteem for the lot of you has gone up many more notches.

    Well done, you beautiful mad lads. This video was the perfect conclusion to this series, and while it's sad that we won't see it or the City Car Cup racing anymore with you in it, it's a wonderful thing you did to further this worthy project.

    Truly inspirational. You've demonstrated how to take a shopping trolley and make it race-ready and then topped it off with being excellent human beings. I'll certainly be out in 2021 cheering on the Mission Motorsport Team in the Citroen.

    It's criminal that the Bad Obsession Motorsport channel doesn't have 10x the amount of subscribers and video views! This is the best presented and most humourous YT channels I've ever watched and the level of detail, explanation, OCD and innuendo is a wonderful thing to see and hear! Absolutely awesome and well done guys! on the best channel on YT IMHO!

  • @ragwort3369
    @ragwort3369 Před 3 lety

    I've really enjoyed this series, thank you for making it! I've spent a good deal of time around motor racing paddocks as a spectator, a scrutineer, a photographer and a hanger-on, and this has been a really cool insight into the competitor's point of view. Also it reminds me how much I've missed the atmosphere over the last year or so! Lovely to see a shout out to the marshalls, too: when I was doing a lot of motorsports photography I used to make a point of getting a few shots of the orange army at work. As you say, without mashalls there is no motorsport. Looking forward to the return of Binky and the Escargot.

    Well done guys‼️👍👏🍸🍾
    I’ve experienced both, being a marshal and racing.
    Joined TMA at Kyalami in the ‘60s when still at school, just months after the new F1 track opened.
    Started in the ‘Broom & Cement’ brigade then finished on Flags.
    Studies, career and the obvious major interest🤗 took over for 10 years.
    Early ‘70s I was back at Kyalami but this time saloon racing.
    Both experiences are something I will never forget, and to this day remember every corner of that original track.
