Another fantastic video James , many thanks for sharing and talking the Time to put it together 🍻👍

[@ACaterhamCalledFern]

Thanks 😀

Just up the road from me, it's a FANTASTIC track for bikes, but a little narrow for most cars, unless they are small (like a Caterham). Modern cars are so big they have outgrown circuits like Cadwell, but the actual layout there is really good, lots of undulating variation. Thank you for the video, great footage.

[@ACaterhamCalledFern]

Thanks. Yes I agree as new cars are so wide now. Back roads for instance are perfect for a Caterham or classic cars, but newer cars would struggle sometimes side by side. Bring back the classics 😀

I've only done 2 circuits, Llandow and Castle Combe but Cadwell is top of my list of tracks I'd love to drive. They don't call it the Mini Nurburgring for nothing! Looks like you had a fun day James 👌

[@ACaterhamCalledFern]

Hi yep is was great fun. I really want to go back and try to carry more speed. I've not been back to a track yet, but that will be changing soon.

Nice one James - looks you had a great day and you looked pretty fast to me - certainly well below the 2 min time you were aiming for - well done

[@ACaterhamCalledFern]

Thanks it felt fast at the time, but I can see myself from my footage places to improve. I'm sure experts will be able to see way more than I can. Seat time and tuition is the key. All morning I was just touching the brake to steady the car for the first corner even though I knew I didn't have to. Its hard to tell your brain sometimes. Once you know the car can do it then its all good and onto the next thing to improve. I'd like to go back and carry on learning from where I left off.

Expecting delivery of my first Caterham (2009 125 roadsport ex academy car) this week. Very excited!

[@ACaterhamCalledFern]

Oh wow congratulations. Hopefully I've got a load of videos on my channel which will help you.

[@wib1510]

Great video James. Let me know when you're coming to Cadwell again and I'll gladly spend the day helping you. I'm sure we could get you at least 5 seconds quicker 😀

[@ACaterhamCalledFern]

Hey I'd love to do that we need to sort that out. I'm installing something today that might help a little bit 😀 tuition and seat time is key hey.

[@steverabbits]

You did very well there James. I've seen much more powerful cars only 3 or 4 seconds quicker. Fern sounds great on that last lap, perfect balance of quality video, engine and exhaust note and no nasty wind noise, brilliant job once again mate 👌

[@ACaterhamCalledFern]

Thanks chap. I've got 2bhp more now due to the Cadwell Park stickers so I'll he catching up with the 420's soon 😆 I'm in my garage now installing something which might help. Video coming soon I'm sure 😆

[@steverabbits]

@@ACaterhamCalledFern excellent, can't wait!

[@g4okt]

Excellent vid😁

[@ACaterhamCalledFern]

Thank you 😊

[@stephenmckay3011]

Well done, it looks like you had a fantastic day, pretty good track time too

[@ACaterhamCalledFern]

Thanks yes I really enjoyed Cadwell. Still lots of time on the track especially the first 2 corners and generally my exit speeds. My friend gave me a tip for corner exits which I'll try and put into practice in a couple of weeks. If it works I'll let you guys know.

[@BERTVVANHORCK]

Loved the vid!

[@ACaterhamCalledFern]

Thanks it's a great circuit.

[@markcoomber8222]

What tyres were you using ?

[@ACaterhamCalledFern]

Avon ZZS they seem to work well on the road, track and in the wet. Hopefully Nova will be making them soon.
