[@TheBucksBiker-lh2nm]

Doing my first track day tomorrow at Caldwell… This video is not only well presented but also put me at ease. Nice one mate 😎

[@ChasingTenths]

I am glad it helped Thank you very much for appreciating:)

[@PrateekMishra1]

a video I just needed today to suppress the Monday feeling. After watching this, I think I am ready for Cadwell

[@ChasingTenths]

Mate, it’s a stunning track honestly , so many msgs I get on cadwell every week it’s unreal , people just think they gonna fly off the mountain into oblivion lol , so many silly notions in the head it’s unreal

[@trustnuffin9121]

By far the best Cadwell video I have seen to date next to Brad Ray's record lap 👍

[@ChasingTenths]

Thank you very much mate, very kind words :)

[@Bk_MxLife]

Fantastic video sir brilliant for the new people coming into the sport 👏 🏁

[@ChasingTenths]

Thank you Bill, much appreciated

[@shortblokeonabike]

Production of your videos is through the roof. Some real effort put in there. Cheers Abhi.

[@ChasingTenths]

Thank you very much , a tad long this one even for my liking , just re watched it and I could have chopped about 7 mins off it lol Thank you for the lovely words , means a lot to me

[@zxgopher]

This is superb mate. You should do this for every track and the track day organisers should link it on their sites.

[@ChasingTenths]

Really, wow , I never thought of that , may be I will start doing that , touring trackdays lol , good idea. I do it for everyone cause when I started trackdays , I had no idea where to go even and then people rely on friends to come with them , thanks for a lovely comment mate

[@TheEarlster]

you are the only person who has given an excellent insight of Cadwell Park, great video very informative, you have definitely raised my eyebrow, ps that broken rear window must've hurt, ouch 👍🏽

[@ChasingTenths]

Haha, thank you mate , yeah the rear window was a wounder but it’s all sorted now , thanks for watching and leaving a lovely comment mate

[@alhung5637]

Hey man, great video. I love your enthusiasm for all the random bits and bobs of this track!

[@ChasingTenths]

thanks mate and thats what its all about , especially for someone who has never been to that track , a video like this might help them a lot , thank you for the lovely comment

[@ChasingTenths]

@@6arethevan5 aww thank you mate, you made my day with that , cheers

[@madmanreevo]

A great video mate, the drone shots really showed the damp conditions well around the course. Informative with some humour. Although you caught me in my scruffy joggers making lunch lol.

[@ChasingTenths]

Hahaha. That’s ok mate, I think you were on the green kawasaki I loved that bike And you had a decent wheelie too I tend to film all the quirky bits and you making that lunch was just brilliant, these videos are about everyone mate . We all in it together , great camaraderie 🤗

Please if you are scared of Cadwell, dont be! It's peoples favourite track for a reason! It's insane! Take the plunge and get on it! Try and go with someone whose done it before. I've been 3 times on my road bike and it's awesome.

[@ChasingTenths]

Very well said mate Nice words and totally agree with you Thanks for watching

[@robh952]

Not surprising the ambulance goes out so much with that many people out on track at once. How many laps do you get in a day with constant red flags?

[@ChasingTenths]

To be honest , I did the last three sessions in full and one red flag 🚩 others were fine but morning with the rain there were a lot more .

[@s2kingfps]

need to look up pitbull trailer restraint. ur bike will never fall again

[@ChasingTenths]

Yes mate, I just had a wheel chock installed yesterday But aren’t those pit bull stands only in America Might be wrong

[@marksawbridge5345]

Hi abhi you’ve been doing track days a while now at what point did you know to go up to the advanced group I’m still in middle group but wanting to move up

[@ChasingTenths]

Hey Mark, that’s a great question, how comfortably are you overtaking people in inters group now ? And how nervous you feel generally while over taking them?

[@marksawbridge5345]

@@ChasingTenths if I come to overtake someone I’ll make sure there’s a safe gap to commit to the overtake I’m confident in overtaking just feel I’m stuck to quick for lower group and 60% thinks I’m ready to move up to advanced group

[@ChasingTenths]

@@marksawbridge5345 try the Advanced group for the next 2 Trackdays , you will never move back , sounds like you have the confidence right and the pace . But if you feel uneasy then move back , self confidence and comfortable level go hand in hand in this . Try the advanced group on somewhere like Donington , it’s wider

[@marksawbridge5345]

@@ChasingTenths thanks donnington is my local track and favourite along with snetterton I’ll try the advanced group when I’m there on the 19th and see how it’s goes when I moved up from lower group I lapped a poor soul 3 times at donnington so moved up to middle and now i feel time to move thanks for the advice it really helped hope to see you on track soon buddy 👍🏻

[@ChasingTenths]

@@marksawbridge5345 wow, that’s amazing , seems like you are on the upward spiral , Donington and snetterton are both perfect to try out advanced groups , really wide tracks and lovely lovely flow

[@baznap]

Thank you so so much for putting this video together. You are an absolute star. Was a pleasure meeting you. Looking forward till we meet again. So glad you could make it. 👍

[@ChasingTenths]

Thank you Baz , wasn’t going to miss it for the world , all in all , a great day , well organised by you and everyone was just so happy , the weather didn’t dampen the spirits at all

[@AlbertoBaranano]

Awesome walk around man !!! ....and I must add that the cinematography was outstanding Keep these vids coming !!!! PS: This track is so old style !!! I wish we could have something like that here in Spain....here the tracks are just too modern ;-)

[@ChasingTenths]

Thank you my friend, yes the track has a lot of character and it’s very demanding and it’s like a roller coaster, up and down , to be honest you have some stunning tracks in Spain , the recent popularity of the young talent of riders has resulted in more circuits , may be less character but atleast you have superb weather lol , for us here weather is like lottery lol

[@AlbertoBaranano]

@@ChasingTenths Yeah, your "peculiar" british weather is definitively a major issue for track riding IMHO....I actually never ride in wet conditions, both at the track and in the road (except when travelling, of course).... I just do not enjoy doing it, even though I understand wet conditions are a part of the sport....but because I ride just for fun and not for competition, I prefer to skip bad weather riding ;-) ...... just like Jorge Lorenzo and Dani Pedrosa ;-D

[@ChasingTenths]

@@AlbertoBaranano hahaha I love your comments , make me laugh and well written I am the same I try to avoid wet riding It’s easy to crash with not much to prove

[@AlbertoBaranano]

@@ChasingTenths yeah !!! .... BTW those pics in the famous "jump+wheelie" are just superb....100% worthy of a bigger format and a nice frame

[@ChasingTenths]

@@AlbertoBaranano you know what, I was thinking the same , I think I will get one framed 100 percent. good shout that

[@DylanGSXR]

great video mate , at Cadwell myself on 11th and 12th so all these videos are so valuable.top man ... love the footage of you and your pal putting up the gazebo and he did it in his leathers 😂... cheers pal...

[@WinningInters]

Was fun 😂

[@ChasingTenths]

Hahaha true mate, we couldn’t believe how we got that so wrong , we couldn’t figure it out lol … thanks for the nice words , enjoy your time at cadwell Hope you get better weather than I did

[@michaelslater8535]

This is a fabulous video and really covers everything. Did a track day in 1990 on the Honda VFR400, rode up from London with a bunch of mates and had a wicked day. Keep them coming please.

[@ChasingTenths]

Thank you very much mate. I am glad it was helpful , have a great time at cadwell, have fun

[@squierf]

A always grate video, I believe next one will be 2h 20min long ;). yeep Cadwell park grate place to go, but it can be a bit tricky as a firs track to go. Hope will get chance to do trackday together one day. Keep Grip!!!

[@ChasingTenths]

Absolutely my friend , we will definitely do a trackday together , look forward to that … this one was a bit too long to be honest I was very unwell when I was editing this and I ran out of patience so I couldn’t final proof check it otherwise I would have reduced it to 55 mins or something. Even I found it a bit too long

[@TheMrRecman]

Nice one Abhi..I’ll book a day off to watch it😉

[@ManchesterRider]

Great vid. Love Cadwell, was down with few lads earlier this month. Done it twice now.

[@ChasingTenths]

Great track mate, I think I am going there twice again this year and a race later on the year, cheers for the comment and watch

[@thenovalabs]

My elbows down and Im still watching

[@ChasingTenths]

Fantastic:) .. thank you for watching

[@AdamShelton61]

Love the content mate! Not sure if you heard me raving about the mass damper video in parc ferme before going out, but it was bloody good too 😂

[@ChasingTenths]

Aahhh haaaaa I heard that makes sense now I wondered what that was all about I knew it was good though I am super surprised you knew about the mass damper video , it’s still one of my more popular ones. I just believed in the science behind it. You would probably be able to do a proper practical review on it than me with your pace lol . Good riding mate, hope to catch you on circuit soon .

[@jaudicedbrow]

Nothing unusual about this Cadwell trackday - it's always bloody raining at Cadwell! 🤣

[@ChasingTenths]

Hahaha, luckily for me , last 3 were dry , I got 2 more days here in July . Let’s see if they are dry . I really hope they are lol

[@slowjoemoto1729]

Great video Abhi, for someone who's looking at doing far more tracks than the local Brands next year after some major bike repairs, this is a valuable insight! Going to a new track you can often feel quite lost in the paddock area! Keep up the great work :)

[@ChasingTenths]

That’s such a good point Thank you ever so much for watching and understanding the whole point of the long video . If you ever come up to cadwell , I hope you have a good one .

[@IronAddict34]

Still on the metzler td's ?

[@ChasingTenths]

Good comment that mate, no unfortunately, only because I was running a Pirelli sc2 for my 5 hour Donington race so I had it on already . For racing I am not running the metzeler TD , I realised when it was very very hot the tire was sliding slightly and triggering the traction control so I put the Pirelli combination on however for Trackdays I will still stick to metzeler TD if I have no life left in the Pirelli after the race

Super, Michal , glad you got the monkey of Cadwell off your back , it's a lovely place , some people think it's too narrow , as long as we are sensible and don't move around the track needlessly , its actually ok
