993 Driver had some set of testies driving it on a day like that haha, great driving Danny chief can tell you’re gonna do well in the Mr2 series 👍

Spot on about the power thing. I did a trackday at Nurburgring with club 1000 in a 1.0 micra trying to go sub 10. Brilliant day! You were there in the M3 I think! We were looked down on for leaving the proper track toys at home but fuck them, we enjoyed it! 👌

Hey Danny.🖐 Well, this is what we've all been waiting for, so "Let's get to it." All floggin', no vloggin'. The car looks great and nice to hear everything is pretty much working as planned on the first outing.👍 The MR2 looks like a blast, mate... really excited to see you compete in the series. I enjoyed all the onboard sights and sounds. Honorable mention goes out to Kev on that big oh-shit moment... nice edit, btw.😅 I read over the description and wanted to send you some good mojo, hoping you find that missing camera/footage especially since you've put so much effort into documenting this whole process. Top video as always, my friend.👌 Cheers!

I could watch you drive all day. Was waiting for the vtec to kick in the whole time tho lol

Looking good and the DC5 sounds fantastic.

Nicely driven, congratulations on 50k too. Good shit!

Great driving. Love watching track videos like this.

cheers mate, i enjoy watching you do track days. more driving :)

so happy to see you out on track again man. DDC2 FTW!

Beautifully driven on the wet track, that's how you get to know the car best.

Loving the uploads Danny!

Props man, your build is sweet as a nut. All the best

Loved this, And the thoughts and comments. Good cars are just 'fast' ones. Great drive is a lot more than just power. Car looks great in red BTW 😎 👍🏻

Good to see you driving again chap!

Looking good on a wet cadwell mate . I have joined the 750 motor club race series to this year . Looking forward to finally getting back in track myself been a while resurrecting the old mg zs. Cadwell a great circuit and lucky to live on the door step. Great videos 👍

Nice video Danny! Mr-s looks good in red!

Swear the car was black & blue when did red happen?? Looks mega tho, keep it up!😀

Quality driving as always Dan. Thnks fr th ytbs

Great driving! Also red looks great. need to paint my track car.

Great onboard action 👍

Looks good Danny!! You seem to have the MR2 set up quite progressively.

That DC5 sounds like a touring car, bloody epic car!

Well chuffed for you mate! 👍🏼

Looks good all in one colour and red is a good choice

Hardly ever comment, but you had me confused for a min there with the red car lol. Looks like it's going well for its first shake down, obviously the attention to detail and prep counts for that 😉 Love the fact that most people on wet track days are nervous and on edge if the backend steps out, whereas you take the opportunity when breaks free to enjoy the corner and give it some beans and drift it 👍😎 Looking forward to some racing coverage, good luck with that mate, I'm sure you'll do well.

looks like it runs well sounds great .

Carnt wait for the dc2 go hit track again, good session in the mr2

Hey Danny, please consider using a HANS device when wearing a harness and helmet, it seems counter intuitive but the combination of the two can actually increase the chance of a neck injury because the added weight of the helmet along with no give in the harness puts all the force on your neck in an accident. If you wear a helmet without HANS it's actually safer to use the standard seatbelt as it distributes the energy and your body can take some of the force in an accident, or alternatively you can wear the harness without helmet but obviously that has some disadvantages in terms of head protection and can still hurt the neck. Love seeing videos like these and the safer we can all be the more we can have in the future!

You're so right Dan, power stands for shit without balance and poise. It's the reason why we love Karting. Lightweight motoring within a balanced chassis is pure drivers fun. Same reason why a gtr has never made me feel the fizz.

All the room for hand activities with that wheel !

Brilliant content... Certainly got balls as a driver. I cant even push my MR2 like that in the dry.

Spot on as always DMR2. No hate on the mk2, everyone in the community knows the girly mk3 handles better ✌️

it's fun when you see a fwd car having more snap oversteer than a mr2 😂

Yess mate

Hahaha the "Nani ?" when the DC5 oversteers made me LMFHO, great one !

Great video. I also find the MR2 mk3 pretty docile in the wet. Only issue is the front end aquaplaning more readily on standing water given how light it is up front. As you say the UK spec features a cracking Torsen LSD that really helps in these conditions.

Finally you are driving again.

Caddy is my local track. A few miles up the road. Never done a track day there, last time I went was a few years back for the Superbikes.

Class!

Nice & clean! Well done with the result! Around 2mins/lap correct? Wish you good luck with the championship!

Thanks for uploads as ever Dan. Going to see an MR2 on Monday so might get one for a bit of track fun. Can I ask what suspension you're running please?

good video

Great video as always Danny. Would you have any advice how to get into and get decent at track racing? Currently have e36 2.8 and closest track is three sisters.

Love it

Sick

Mint .

Did I hear a Fist of the North Star reference? When the car was sliding towards the grass? Lol

Red very good

Great stuff ! When did the car change from black to red ?

Wonder who would be quicker on track. You or sideways sid? THAT would be a watch!!!

did you know the lsd from the mk3 also fits the NA mk2. but suppose that doesn't count for a race series where it has to be stock

Yo my 6 speed probably went around Cadwell Park. Also a 1ZZ Spyder is surprisingly quick.

Looks great in red. What steering wheel is that? A momo team 300? I have one if anyone is interested haha, but maybe I’ll use it based on this vid.

Looks like a blast even in that weather, too feart to track my GT86 (daily), a cheap MR2 might be on the cards

As a road tire do you find the AD08r to be good enough in the wet? Seem to stick well in such a light car!

Must admit I'd love to see Danny in a K20 turbo'd one of these

Whats done to that dc5, pulls well

I am curious about the rpm range you are using, do you go above 6300rpm? I've watched your videos, you could not find you modifying the oil pick to solve oil starvation, did I missed it ?

Looks fun! *is that car not gonna be too slow? 😂

Had good fun there on dry but wet looks like suicide 😂 I thought you had to go into pits if you go off track even for a little bit? But good fun, cars seems fun

Car looked solid, the sound on the limited is very noice also 👌 and shoutout to lonely drivers with the hoodie 👍

Needs a Mick’s garage Banner on the back window

Red cars go faster as proven by ddc2 in the mr2 😆 nice to know you like the std lsd. I was wondering how good it is. Did you change anything with the shifter mechanism or is that std 5 sp?

Gave that Porsche a run for it's money!

What makes his K20 just so much more peachy?

I fucking love you so much this content is valuable

Mrs in the rain 😂😶

regulations wont allow to change tire size? for a 225 or 245 rear? does it have lsd? brake size is stock?

Any websites you recommend to book track days through mate?

I was faster than a Supercharged FN2 in my N/A FN2. Taken 350Z on track, Boxster, and a MR2 roadster. MR2 was most fun one. Such a great chassis. Even took a 07 Jetta round cadwell which was great fun

Sorry if you've said this before, but what's the wheel and boss kit?

Brave man in that kind of weather, also why is the car red now?...it was blue, I will have to check your older vids.

Hang on since when was the car red?

So when did the car become red??

Niceone. Whay series u entering?

There is much to be said a car that doesn't have all the horsepowers. Also good to see the heater thing works, it looked about as useful as a one legged man in an arse kicking contest, just goes to show.

Not going to remove passenger airbag & centre cubby bit? Every little helps with weight

Fair play going out on the R888's, ive got AR1's and they are shocking in the wet. Crazy you can't use seperate wets for racing. Rainsport 5s would have been ideal on spare wheels.

1zz is great for British B roads

Is this your mr2 Dan?

I love riding my quad bike the top speed is 76 but 25 30 mph side ways os funn

So it's red now?? haha

How much does the mr2 weight now ? Do you know? BTW : the video look awesome can't wait to see more ;)

New appreciation/perspective on the mx5 then? :D

Wasn't you're mr2 black and blue or am I missing something 🤣

I'm Irish by the way (watching from Dublin): it was a joke! 😉

Have I missed summet? Funny looking black that fucker 🤣 Standard engine sounds orate though, pretty grunty! Was that DC5 mishap a Virtua Fighter sample? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Isn’t it too slow? 😅

I am real confused this is a Red Mr2?

Question: Why do you hate questions?

Come on Danny it’s begging for an advan livery

Haters will hate... but a stock MR2 Roadster is still a sub 9 minute nurburgring car (full, not btg). Also its faster than the Honda Civic EK9 Type R on track: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ZtecidZi2tWyiGQ.html #CaseClosed

If you drive it like that when it's wet, it's going to be like shit to a blanket in the dry

I think this was the trackday I tried to get on but it was booked up so I was going to have a drive up and spectate which I do now and then. Access denied..........fuck you covid 19 🤬

doesnt sound anywhere near as good as a K20
