That gran turismo countdown noise bringer back memories

I wish the rear view was mirrored. The GT countdown starter mad me smile 👍

Hey Danny.🖐 Some spicy moments indeed. I was slidin' around in my seat just watching. Like some of the others have mentioned, love the rear view camera. Great action all around. I'm really stoked for you on the outcome, Dan!👏👏👏 Damn proud to see all your efforts paying dividends on track and I look forward to hearing what you have to say about it in the next one.👍 Have a good evening, dude.

Mega driving. Did well just to keep pointing forward

Absolutely loved this Dan. Thank you for posting. Great track battle and awesome driving from yourself. Nice one on the 2nd place.

Makes them long nights working in a cold dingy barn up north with eBay spec lighting worthwhile 👏🏼

oh my god this is quite honestly one of my favourite cockpit driving videos on youtube , everything is layed out so neatly and placed like its a video game

As some others have already said, rather than trying to find the apex. the Yellow car was using the karting line through most corners. When it was very wet Schumacher used the kart line line to great effect. Great video, great driving and love the two camera set up.

This was more BDC than 750MC in some places. The right hander before the straight leading to the final chicane looked lethal. Amazing work mate, fair play.

Can you add an intro and an outro of you talking abit, makes the video more wholesome haha. Keep the videos coming, i love them.

Great camera set up Dan. Felt like I was in the car at the race start😂

That gran turismo starting music brought back many a memory of doing the driving tests on it over and over again. Congrats on the P2, must all have been the suspension setup getting in your way 😜that start looked hectic but definitely looked like the reason why you’d get into this type of track day in the first place 👌🏻

That Mk1 was able to carry some speed round the corners no doubt he had some proper rain tyres on well done on 2nd place mate with sketchy tyres your skills really do show in the wet

Some great driving in the rain there Dan! Well done mate!

Great driving! Ayrton would be proud! Thx for the video.

Avoided that like a boss, nice one!

Proper that, well impressive. Great end to the year for you too man!

Love the HUD and rear view 👍👊

Love the Playstaion style video :D The guy in the aw11 had a cracking race and seemed to have excelent traction and balance. Tricky conditions for sure. You seemed to lose from traction as the race went on. Aw11 guy was fast from the last corner to turn 4. He was wide entry lines everywhere. Really good watch that!

The AW11 must have had some good wet tyres on! Good job though Danny. That was a mega wet one!

The editing on this is sublime.

Wow, you have some skills! Amazing saves there.

congrats Dan! loved the GT intro count down, lol

Awesome, enjoyed that (although the start always seem an easy way for your time and effort to hit a brick wall within seconds of commencing racing. Was that performance delivered on the back of the worn tyres featured in your last video?....just wow if so! Ps I called a potential podium Dan 🙋🏼‍♂️😉, so pleased for you that the hard work and perseverance with the car has paid off. Up against other racers (not trackday drivers but people who have gone beyond that and fancy their chances!!!) in your rookie year it’s an incredible effort. Thanks for taking the time to share your journey.👏🏼

man that looks intense! pretty slick driving there

Pwoah! that near crash into that SW was hairy wasn't it? like seeing the live stats on videos like this too. The rear view was a nice touch also, could see how close them Audi drivers were to rearing you. Nice bit of driving there Dan! KZread seems to have fixed its notifications.. For now..

Nice Carcontrol, but maybe you could try the Wetline, like the yellow MR2 =) Cheers Mate

Yea boi! You definitely let them know you're serious:) and well done on the saves. Missing the car t bone in the wet, well that's just outstanding 👍

Fair play in these conditions, brave pants on and the largest of balls. Done good job.

looks like Yellow car was staying more on wetline than you, and managed to pull cutback by doing so. Great driving!

Take my hat of to yah fella , some good driving there well done 👍

Class driving that Dan in them conditions

Saw you got an award, go done lad. I thought the Saturday was wet for me, midship madness there.

Absolutely awesome footage as usual. Seems like you need a little bit more of whatever grip the yellow mk1 was finding behind you! You were flying but I wonder what that extra grip would have done.

Slippery in wet weather. Good for the rider skills. Good race Danny!

That AW11 looks rapid in the corners, I know you have old tyres but damn!

Superb man

Shocking conditions met head on with cat like reactions and BALLSEY driving!!! Well done Boyyyeeee 😝 More vids covering the life of Dan to cheer us up please mate 👍 Keep safe fella

Great driving man !

Good work Dan 😎

Nice video and great driving. I don't think i'd have the balls to push that hard in the wet.

Oncoming traffic on a race track, Squeeky bum time. Maybe new tyres, higher pressures and disconnecting the anti roll bars might have helped with traction. Good work Dan 👍

Please please please get yourself a heartrate monitor. That would be so good to see during them squeeky bum moments!

That’s next level.

im probably incorrect but do yo usually run those cornering lines in the dry (other factor that plays a role such as tires) but it seems that aw11 was taking a wider line which is usually whats whats recommended for such conditions, but i gotta say you handled this race like a boss it was very impressive and suspenseful watching this bravo.

Epic race!

Is this racing, or drifting? Hard to tell 😂 Great driving though dude. Some sketchy conditions. I've raced in similar there on bikes and it's definitely... interesting

Jesus u got some skills lad!

Last time I took my aw11 out in the rain I slid it into a median 😀

Looks like the pace is way better this time round 👍

Might have finished higher if you painted the floor in the barn 🤷‍♂️ Nah man that’s some great driving 👍

Gutted we weren't allowed in to this one. Cool to see the AW11's out there still, I know a lot are hiding away still, hoping to get my own out there next year

Your doing good Dan, just goes to show you dont need power and an lsd in the wet. Did you go soft on the anti roll bars?

Awesome driving, looks sketchy as heck in the wet

What would be the time difference in those conditions compared to a dry lap?

Ideal conditions for corner-balance testing!

What tyres were you using?

that yelow aw11 is very skilled and stable

Damn you done well, blinded by the rain and splash in some areas.

I love how literally everyone feint oversteers into turn 1

Nice driving.It sucks every time you race it’s full on rain but will make you a better driver for sure.

Dan are you using anything apart from the phone for your racechrono pro setup? GPS or odb for example, if so could you let me know what, I used it for the first time recently and was struggling with GPS and couldn't work out how to add throttle. Great work by the way!

3S-GE (or FE) vs 4A-GE vs 1ZZ-FED? They may be competing with each other? It makes sense?

Good driving sir

Time to spend some pennies on new tyres. Good job though in tough conditions 👍🏻

looked like fun

When was this filmed June? Looks like British summer weather 😂

Might have to join this if I can get my sw20 to be semi reliable

The rain master.

Im no expert, but from experience a wider line has a lot more grip in the wet. Looks in the vid like you were exploring that towards the end? Think of the standard racing line as the slippy rubber line and kinda weave/thread through it, if that makes sense?

@kerstas10

that does make sense. there is a few clips, of how to drive in wet Nurburgring. And they show to avoid racing lines which are taken when it's dry.

100% right. Off line is grippier in the wet because the rubbered line becomes glossy

Awesome skills u have Dan. Sending greeting and subscribtion from Poland. What I can see top 10-15 drivers in MR2 championship are really skilled drivers definetily. Imo that yellow aw11 and actually most of your opponents drive more smooth during rain (im watching Bubarowe channel long Time for example). That steering wheel you use arent it too small? It looks like 320mm or kind of. And second thing - when you cornering you have around 20-30% throttle and then in one moment 100% when exiting. I'm definetily worst driver than you but I think those 2 things may be changed to improve lapping. More smooth with gas when exiting and maybe that steering wheel is too small to be more smooth.

That close call made me sweat 😂 How did you find the UK gearing compared to the JDM? Guessing too wet to really judge between the two?
