One thing I did say during this video was, Jimmy is not as far off owning an NSX as he thinks. Win the Praga Cup and he wins a Praga. That would be getting sold, as you can't go down the shops in it.

Have followed Simon Norris and his evo over the last 10+ years, mad that you was on track with him. That thing is a beast, and you outclassed him comprehensively. GG
I was looking forward to this vid and seeing how the Praga would match-up to the other Pro Extreme cars through the sector speed/time splits, and glad to see you enjoyed yourself! Sadly I can confirm that even in equally-sized cars you can still get baulked at the end of a fast lap- it's not just a dinky Praga thing! 😂 Comparing the 2022 TSL data against what we managed with our 850hp Evo in 2017 is quite interesting- Praga faster in S1, Evo faster in S2 and both neck and neck in the final sector, highlighting the differences in power/aero but ultimately achieving a similar result. It's unfortunate that Pirelli don't offer a Super Soft in the smaller sizes as a friend was using a Radical a couple of seasons ago and had to suffer with skating around for 20mins generating no tyre temp in what was available. I still have our Vbox and video data, a 1:21.8 lap plus a potential mid-21 from qualifying, so if you wanted to have a browse and/or create a comparison vid you're more than welcome! 😉
I was marshalling in the pits for this event, was great to see a Praga up close for the first time
The humility and humble nature of Jimmer is a treasure.. Don't underestimate this chap, I see big things ahead. 👍❤️🇬🇧
Jimmy in those sunglasses looks like Great Value Jean Eric Vergne in the best way possible
Our boy living the dream. You love to see it.
It's such a small thing, but seeing you signing people's parts is amazing. You've come so far!

A 4 door sedan road car converted to a race car with lots of power but also lots of aero drag vs. a dedicated race car that was aero-shaped for efficient downforce from its inception and is waaay lighter? Of course, the Praga would win. Road based race cars almost always lose to pure race cars.

Dang, noticeably improved cinematography on this one…really feels like Jimmy is figuring out this live video thing. Looking forward to when he is put in WEC and we’re getting videos like this :D
Praga has a marketing genius working for them getting Jimmy on board. I was at Pitt Race a couple weeks ago and someone was running a Praga in TT. Before Jimmy started driving for them, I had no idea who they were; now I'm like "oh sweet, a Praga!"
I was here at this and it was fucking amazing to watch that praga turn through cascades, taking photos was a challenge it was just in and out the view finder faster than I could think 😂
I dont know if you realize how much you've feckin' made it mate. Going around doing time attack with, basically, the Praga factory team. And then smashing it round Oulton park. That's proper racing driver shit man!

shshh! that's how you know iRacing is so real, that real drivers apply sim racing tech to IRL driving. That's knowledge that needs to be kept from the public. how long until we have a praga on AC and we see both of ya dook it out on the nord?
These videos are always so entertaining, love your content Jimmer!
Awesome result, well done and that's all that matters. It's all extremely valuable experience that can only make You a better driver for future events. It doesn't matter if You beat them by 2 secons or 0.1 of a second, it's being ahead and growing as a driver that matters.
Maybe you could ask Praga that if they ever retire a chassis, would it be an option to build an even faster R1 Evo out of it?
Grats on the TA win. WEll deserved Jimmy! Always a joy to see your sim racing videos, but it's even better to see you racing real cars and succeeding. Keep it up.
Awesome seeing a video like this Jimmy
It's nice to see your progression, how you get more comfortable and confident body language in the car. Keep it up!
Cnngratulations Jimmy. You're inspiring a lot of people man! Really happy to see you evolve. Keep up the monstrous work ❤
Love to see the Praga being used in new events. Quite my favourite car these days. Cheers Jimmer for the great driving!

@@andrewharper4296 Agreed about the budget thing. If you haven't already, watch James Baldwin's video about why he didn't race for over a year after British GT: it's just simply impossible without a sponsor. Scraping together enough money to race in one GT3 race or similar is one thing, but financing a whole season in a GT or LMS series requires hundreds of thousands of pounds. As you said though, the fact that we live in the social media age and that people like Jimmer now have huge social media followings is very much the "wildcard" factor here. To the right group of sponsors (e.g a brand like Fanatec as you said), someone like Jimmy Broadbent is a potentially great oppurtunity for them to advertise. The reality is that Jimmy, like 99% of other people, doesn't have the money himself/a business that can outright afford to fund a seat in a high up race series. He realistically wouldn't have a chance at all (not to do with driving skills, just that he's a normal guy who didn't have an insanely privileged upbringing). For the vast majority, it's just unattainable. But the fact that he's built up a truly incredible KZread channel with this much of a following is a very unique thing, definitely something to watch out for. The Praga thing is incredible as is, and now he's in the world of real world racing, it doesn't seem like he's going anywhere soon. He's continually improving as a driver, putting in some mega performances, as well as producing some video content of absurdly good quality. Jimmer is truly something unique in the world of motor racing, and long may his success continue. Him being in a racing car isn't just a massive win for him, it's a win for the whole community. It makes me so happy to see him being successful
Oh wow. I always wandered what happened to the ND 3 door Evo. I remember when it was first built and Simon used to run the 1/4 at Santa Pod. Glad to see it still going.
Nice one Jimmer! Pity it's only a one off drive but with the team trusting you to wring it's neck instead of the Munch must help your confidence loads! I'm surprised that Praga are still having electrical and boost problems though. I'd have thought that they'd have reliability sorted by now?
much respect to praga for agreeing to this, this was so fun to watch. also jimmy, give yourself some credit. you talk down on yourself so much talking about "a better driver could do it better." youre a great driver, cut yourself some slack.
Wait, this is really bloody cool. Keep it up Jimmer :D
