Hope you have a blast!

@@victorsmialek me too honestly

@@Johan_Cohen I don’t know if they offer it publicly since it’s a race car test and we got together through a friend. But if you are serious about a proper test in a radical then maybe email them and ask. Lmk if that works

@@victorsmialek they def offer it publicly. I can't post the link to their site (YT does not allow links) but they offer different Radical Packages and I was wondering which one you got and whether it was worth what you paid. I've looked into RySpec and other Radical pay for seat packages but want to compare services before dropping 4/5 figures. They say all the right things but want to know if you are getting your money's worth

Thank you 👍

Yeah, bad habit I used to do, you’re right it just worsens my exit for the corner, I’m too far to intimidate him in his mirrors. Your not a Debbie downer if it’s valid advice😊

Yeah, it rained a bit beforehand but you’re right it’s normally flat.

First off, I’m coming onto to the track so I wasn’t even going fast, secondly the angle might look close but I assure you I wasn’t close to him, I would never almost hit him, thirdly everyone else was weaving and I wasn’t even weaving hard. I appreciate the concern for the Marshall but no one was even close to hitting him.

Thanks!

Thanks!😁, appreciate the support and once the season starts I’ll post some more on-boards.

Thanks, hope you enjoyed the finish😄

Thank you

Thanks man

Thanks 😁

@@victorsmialek No problem.

😂 no worries, driving the radical definitely was one of the best experiences I have had so far.

@@victorsmialek How much did the track day set you back?

@@TRX2015 one lap I was a second up on my best, i got some clean laps in but some I had to overtake or got stuck

@@TRX2015I know realized you might have been talking about price, if I remember correctly it was 5000 cad

@@victorsmialek Thank you. Good run!

Thanks!

Any advice for someone passionate about racing that wants to get into it?

@@roadbully7895 depending on your age there are a few options. If you have a car then you can try out time attack or autocross events, they don’t require too much investment or equipment and are still a good way to develop car control. Karting is another one, some karting tracks have organized championships where you just arrive and drive where everyone has the same kart, granted it might not be as fast as a pro kart but it’s still lots of fun and competitive . Looking for a spec series or amateur series is also another option, you can buy a cheap car and track it out, endurance for example can be a decent option since costs can be shared with other drivers and you guys can be a team. I started out in karting like most drivers and thats where most racecraft is learned so that would be a great place to start if you want to take racing further. If any of these options are unavailable or too expensive I think sim racing is the next best thing, a decent set up might be a bit pricey but after that there are no additional costs and it gives you access to loads of cars and tracks. It depends on where you live and what’s available near you, if you live in an area with no racetracks or anything nearby then sim racing is easily the way to go, if you live near a track then check out their website for events or look up series that race near you. I hope I covered most of it, if you got anymore questions just let me know

Wow man thank you for the insight. I live in NY and it’s limited here on options. I have a karting place in going to head to come spring time but I will look into an amateur series as my next step! Where did you go after karting? Was it straight into single seater cars?

@@roadbully7895 Basically, after karting I went into formula ford or F1600 it’s called that in Canada and I also raced Lucky Dog Racing Canada which is an amateur endurance series where I raced a tracked but still mostly stock 2013 gt86 for a team. That was my first year in cars. Last year I did a couple races in an F3 car( the one in the video) and now this season I am planning on returning to Drexler Cup and Zinox F2000 Trophy full time.

Thanks

Yeah, I don’t know why they keep us there for that long, normally we go through the pit lane so I can turn off the car and talk to my team but this year we went straight on the track. In race 1 it surprised everyone and the guy in front of me still had his umbrella with him in the car and had to throw it on the grass on the straight.

I don't think he had an engine advantage. The orange car seemed to lack grip coming off of the final chicane, allowing for him to retake the spot. Otherwise, he wasn't really pulling away.

The orange car lost the throttle return springs about 3 laps in. The car would pin the throttle. Had to clutch kick to slow for the corners and was at a disadvantage on entry and exit. Miracle that it finishedthe race.

Thanks, glad to hear that

Hey how’s it going

i started racing a couple years ago in karting and then I took the jump into cars and formula ford was the only open wheel championship in Canada so we decided to do that and then got a good deal on the car. It was a championship race, it counts towards the Quebec series championship and not the Ontario one as the classes get scored differently and they are separate championships. I'd be happy to answer some more questions you have. Appreciate the comment!

@@victorsmialek that's amazing! Thanks! The F1600 website is pretty outdated so I couldn't get much info on it. Is there anywhere else I can see results and more information that's more up to date, do you know?

@@chadryerson52 formula1600.com/ That’s the Ontario website which I think you might have already checked out but there’s really nowhere else, I don’t know why the Quebec championship doesn’t update their website. It’s a shame. For example I get all the results and weekend info from email from the organizer. For the public I don’t think there is much.

@@victorsmialek all good, thanks for everything!

No way the great Cmsy commented on my video, what an honour
