Mini-Nürburgring (Cadwell Park) vs F1000 is Insane!

Cadwell Park might be the UK's Hardest Track, often described as the Mini-Nürburgring.
The barriers are close, the corners are bumpy and the track is twisty.
I took my F1000 for the pre-season test to this incredible and intense track, only 1 week ahead of the season opening race... the pressure was on!
See big saves, a crash (not mine), wet driving and the beautiful Lincolnshire countryside.
@Jimmy_Broadbent fancy taking it for a spin after the GT4 season?

    Amazing video. Used to come here as a kid with my Auntie and Uncle and the races were just amazing to watch. Looks like so much fun to drive, so jealous. Thanks for the video dude and best of luck with the upcoming season.

    America also has its own mini-Nurburgring, even minier than Cadwell Park. The American mini-Nurburgring goes under the glorious name of "Lime Rock Park". Let's ensure these shrines to motor sport aren't lost to golf clubs. They are a permanent and insidious threat to many race tracks. Great video, BTW.

    I won my first race at Cadwell in the precursor to F1000 - Formula Honda. Back in 2001 we had the Honda 600 engines and the car was so well suited to the track. I never drove a 1000cc car unfortunately but they look a bit more of a handful!
