That camera angle is ON POINT for that car. We can see even the cars in the rear view mirror.
I agree, that is a really good position for the car.
Its attached to his helmet. That's why we can see the road in the mirror.. so close to Dale's eyes.

Driving the caterham at these speeds looks absolute bonkers and scary at the same time.
That thing is awesome...I really want to have a go in one.
The ring doesn't do performance cars like this justice. That Caterham does 0-60 in 3.4 seconds and your are topping it out at 140mph but you'd barely tell at times. Great driving, I'll be back later in the year
jjust sitting in the back seat enjoying my beer and loving the drive.... thanks!!!!
Absolutely incredible driving! Well done mate
What a joy to watch - excellent driving!
Lovely grunt from the engine, Fair play to ya keeping the foot down far out as the Headlight
I used to work in the same building as McMillan Motorsport who are Caterham Racing specialists. Used to see some awesome cars! Love the things, so much fun.
that's absolutely manic. brilliant drive
Great video. I was "with" you in the car and caught my self in streatching my neck to check for The Ring Taxi, in the rear view mirror, he he. But I think you lost it at Adenauer Forst.
Gert Sterner qw
I was doing the same thing! 😂
That was cool...good driver! Thanks for upload.
Nicely done sir!
I was lucky enough to have owned a classic Caterham in the 90's - Kent Crossflow twin Weber Prisoner car. Loved it. Never had the chance to run it on a really fast track but man that little go-kart shredded up the mountain roads and was a monster in autocross.
Lovely sounding car and great driving.
Great video Dale, an almost completely clear Ring, what a luxury, I love watching you wring out a car I think I will call it "drive it by the scruff of the neck" style. :)
Fantastic driving and great camera angle. That car is absolutely flying down the track and both you and the car look right at home. I can tell how well balanced the car is too, it doesn’t seem to be sliding all over the place in corners. I can see why they say the 400 series is the sweet spot in the line up. The car has more than enough power to get it if it’s own way but not so much that you feel like you’re about to die, or at least you make it look that way as you look fairly relaxed while behind the wheel.
Best car for track
Andy describing the seats as school chairs 😂😂, laughed more than I should have lol
7s are the ultimate road/track cars. They do both really well unlike some other track day cars.
Yessss!!! More onboard videos!
Great and I mean great driver! And passenger so relaxed, I would have white knuckles sitting there at that speed! Fantastic video, been in a few Caterhams and they are scary quick (up to about 120)!😎🇦🇺👌
proper driving, good job!
what a car and what a driver! co pilot is great too.
This looks so fun
I'm jealous
me too
Brilliant driving.
Love it! More videos please ;)
Strip all the modern shit of a car = Caterham = real immersion
Fuckin A+
He and his car are not ordinary
Theyre both so composed and clean!
they're so fuckin brit syle.
Very relaxed passenger..i have a westfield, and that has soooo much more grip than mine..50 year old design..still awesome 👍
Nice drive!
you are my man, shiftin on yo own!!
Lol that M3 looks like a giant SUV from your perspective
The carpark was fascinating.
Great driving...
great lap of you ringtaxi and polo. would love to do a lap with you in yhe ringtaxi some day
what a lap great driving....lol what ring taxi that M3 didn't stand a chance.
Nice driving. weight is king?
awesome!!!
This Caterham is so planted! What tyres is it on?
so good
That hand-held camerawork is boss.
Helmet mounted camera
Very good driver.
Dope driving 5/5
So gentle...
The man with the steel balls. P E R F E C T
Titanium is lighter, but oftentimes too brittle
nice driving..cool
Pretty close on your guess aswell. An 8:02-3 based off the video timing
Great vid, agree with Gert, it was like I was driving! I wish ! My Caterham is only 125 BHP , so would be slow on the long fast sections.Which model were you driving? Looked like the 310, but interested to know? Hope to drive the Ring one day
It is a 485 S, see the badge on the dashboard.
Greetings from an HPC driver.
Very Good Video.
How many hp?
dam. Typed before end of vid........what was your "best" lap time
Cool!!
Really good driving but Chapman was right about light weight cars , brilliant handling
Hahaha, i thought he flipped him off as he passed! Had to see it a couple more times to be sure.
What was your lap time?
Barbaro,increible
I reckon it went faster with me in it ;) shame about the yellow that wasn't a yellow at Brunchen though!
very gooooooooooooood !!!
Fuck me this is epic... hearts going like the clappers watching
Are those guys British and driving a Catherham with the steering wheel in the correct side? What kind of sorcery is that?
How much is a track day at the ring?
You have to pay for each lap and it is 27 € each , 100 € for 4 laps ...
Great video, but, why did you put vs Ring taxi in the title? You passed it in the 1st 2 min. and it was never seen again....where's the vs.?
He was behind him do a decent bit. Look at the rear view mirror
One thumb down, Dale? Elüd??😂
you are sick bro, thats im talking bout
so fast in the corners
"Sorry M3 no chance!" ... M3 turns into mirror pixel lol.
I hope Caterham doesn't go under by the time I can afford one. This is my dream car. i don't know how people can decide between the 620 and the 480
485S? Normally aspirated?
Yep, 240 hp Ford engine
love all forms of the super 7...............would seem so much more fun then the techno wizardry of todays super cars. imho
i love that small steering wheel.
Why does it spike the revs?
jrag1000 7:25? Small jumps.
The tyre may lose traction and spins a little faster than the road.
It's not unusual see Catherhams jumping on the track.
Great kitcar, power to weight ratio and characteristics are so different to a normal car i find
Not a kit car!
Don't know about you all, but I get a stiffy watching this madness. Fuck me if this wouldn't be the last best day of my life.
What engine is in this?
240 hp Ford engine
Light is right.
👍
Am i right in assuming a 'ring taxi' is a car you pay to be driven round in?
That's correct, normally by a pro-driver with a race pedigree and several thousand laps!
@@BTGDale Thanks.
big bolls!!
Where have you mounted the camera? On your helmet, or shoulder?
Kenneth Ord It's attached on the right side of his helmet. You can see it in the rear view mirror.
CATERHAM😍😍😍
This car is a bug killer!
That steering wheel is too damn small lol
i could probably do it flat but mot today lol
M5!
Fuck this looks exhilarating.
Damn..no 1080p this early
Good news is that I actually uploaded the original file in 2.7k (1440p)! :)
Which is exactly why I'm going to watch it again on the good tellybox when I get home ;)
Don't you get a free ride in the taxi if you are overtaken during your experience? I heard it somewhere, so please don't jump down my throat.
sounds like an s2000
2liters/240hp/8500rpm rev limiter. Quite Similar engine specs
Looked more like a new 5 series to me.
where is the m3???? ahahahha
i know what car id rather be in and it wouldn't be the m3
:o) :o) :o)
Push so hard
the bathtub is fast, but i'd take the taxi anyday.
Birdland 1 is take the caterham way more fun
Chapman for ever. 👍Fuck that
high tec shit. BMW is a girly Car.
All the gay gear changes , must be Dale.
