That was cock on! Check out UK F1 stock cars and winged and wingless 410 sprint cars, in the US. About the weight of an old mini, but with around 900 horse! Barmy!

Nicely done!

Implying the final cut would have been any better. Refer to my other comment for more details

Legend

Guy please stop messing about with 4 wheels and give us some bike content please, some enduro or hill climbs, motocross etc, thx m8

Take a look at BB Motorsport.. this is the company that built the cars and helped with the ape

Thank you.

You can rewind the KZfaq’s.

Same as he did when making Swords and machining precision steel. Also making a plane wing. That's why we like watching 😎

Get that man a sprint car drive

You should watch women's class 7s or 9s, bloody amazing racing

@@Oooo-bi7bi good job finding the negative there, was a compliment

OMG your 1380 mini post brought back SOOOO many memories I just had to reply 😊 I bought my mates ex grass track/ rally race mini back in the day, it had a blueprint 1.3L metro race engine, uprated everything including suspension, gearbox, mad bucket seats, wide arches and huge wide wheels on spacers, semi slick road tyres, exhaust, clutch etc etc not much was standard apart from the walnut dash (I think it was walnut?) and some original Smiths dials and some body panels. It was converted for legal road use. Properly quick, it would smash most expensive supercars from 0-60/70 but wouldn't go much faster than 80 due to its gearing 😢 Had a cherry bomb exhaust for a while that made it sound like a burbling V8, could hear it from a mile away on full chat, then I'd rock up in my little mini and confusion ensued 😂 Totally mental machine in awesome metallic British Racing Green with a plain white roof, absolutely loved it! New road emissions testing made it illegal to drive on road bcuz the system allowed too much unburnt fuel thru on idle and so it wouldn't pass the newer emissions tests on an MOT, it was born to race and just wouldnt idle/run like it needed to, even had a mobile tuner come out with a van full of expensive gismos and he couldn't fix it without fitting a new engine, we tried new injectors etc but it just wasn't having it, failed MOT every time on that emissions bit, and back then it was kinda impossible to sort out without a new engine etc which wouldn't have been the same thrill. Nowadays it would prob either be able to be fixed or just be totally illegal for sooo many more reasons 😂 was fun while it lasted tho. I loved the reaction/ look on people's faces, the grip was phenomenal, especially on windy B roads, most had no idea it was so fast to 60 or could corner like it was on rails at those speeds, being pinned to the seats yelling woohoo or stoooop depending on their surprise 😂 I changed jobs and it made sense to let it go to a mechanic neighbour to 'tinker' with, he couldn't sort it and sold it for parts eventually, a sad sad day, but those memories will last me a lifetime. Peace 👍

not inexpensive any more :)

@@daveyboy174 Like I say, it was many years ago that I was involved but I`m sure if you compared it to say rallying or other disciplines of Motor Racing, the costs would be nothing like. That`s the point I was trying to make.

There's lads now that have 20-30 grand in there engine alone!!

Grass track is entry level motorsport over here. There are many classes, starting with old production cars, with restrictors fitted & only safety related modifications.

For the ROAD ?

@@paulglinz7905 streets? highways? A street legal car. Maybe the laws are different in the UK

You can get bike engined cars, usually 2 seaters.

@@chriscoulthard4947 That would be so cool to have. It's just super dangerous driving them where i live in LA because its so easy to get into an accident and most people have gigantic SUVs.

Z cars is a road going grasser look them up

Oh definitely, get him in with some major national champs and BAS champs

Bennet built motorsport !

How deep is your pockets

@@wessexjohn7031 £10-15k per buggy

Yes, he made his debut as a sidecar passenger at Cadwell Park (Lincolnshire) earlier this year.

@@jimdanby9694 that's a road racing sidecar? Speedway/grasstrack is dirt track racing.

@@Woodee Sorry Woodee, my mistake I misread, yes Cadwell was road racing. I reckon he'd enjoy grasstrack sidecar though.

@@jimdanby9694 yeah probably. I've seen he has done a bit of 4 wheeled and 3 (Apecar) dirt tracking

Yeah , clever enough to know when to learn , not afraid to ask . Most definitely a proper racer . And he doesn't consider age over ability , that's why he's so good .

bet you never drove anything like it though so dont knock what you havnt done
