Caterhams are awesome - especially on track - enjoy a couple of laps from an unusually sunny Knockhill earlier in the year!
Recorded using Race Chrono Pro, GoPro Hero9 Black, Dual XGPS160
This is a Caterham 7 420r with the 2.0 Ford Duratec engine, Avon ZZS tyres, Aeroscreen, Titan LSD.

I didn't know it is such a short lap at Knockhill, some exciting corners the section where you go from kerb to kerb through a dip looks huge fun!

It's a 1.2 Mile track and great fun to drive. 1.27 to be exact.

Sweet- I just finished building my 420R w/ roller barrels. First track day with it in a couple week. Can't wait.

I had a go round there in the legends car similar but not as fun as a Caterham and it was fantastic!!! Knockhill is the jewel in the crown of British motorsport! It’s underrated what an absolute cracking circuit. I’ve also had a few hot laps round with BTCC 3 time championship winner Gordon Shedden in their M4. What an experience!

Why does this look weird? This feels like uncanny valley game graphics. Has there been some post processing? What is the camera mounted to that it keeps moving?

@356dna5 Жыл бұрын

Its the GoPro Image stablisation - the camera is fixed, but the gopro doesn't lock onto a known target so appears to move in the corners. No other processing has been applied.

I watched for a few seconds and was going to close the video cos i thought it was just a video game hahaha I have a gopro 10 and noticed the image stabilisation causing this effect. Haven't figured out yet how to avoid it. Besides using a gimbal i guess

@@Goosey9111I thought the exact same thing. Had to think about it for a few seconds. Weird. I think part of it is the lack of shadows, reflections and bright colors.

Lovely lines. Was this an open track day? I want to take my Caterham to Knockhill but worried about oversubscribed, busy days.

Organised by autobahn Scotland. Which is semi open, but selected audience and having done 4 now I can report that driving standards are superb.

Looks like a lot of fun. Great lines. Wish we have small fun tracks like this in the USA. Are you running the standard R suspension?

What suspension is on your car?

@356dna5 3 жыл бұрын

It's the standard "R" pack Bilstein setup

@@356dna5 so the "sport" suspension, not "track" or "race"? I opted for the "track", which has very stiff rates. I'm curious to see how it does. Your car doesn't seem to have much body roll.

@@OVER5TEER Yes, I think so - I forget the terminology now - but i don't think its the track or race version - adjustable height but non adjustable dampers. It's really good compared to any other road car, but having found the limits, some more damping would be good for fast direction changes and some of the compressions at Knockhill.
