**NEW CAR REVEAL!** Plus what really happened when I crashed!

Regular viewers will know that I smashed myself up in a motorcycle race at Brands Hatch a few weeks ago. So, with the bike racing on hold, I needed something to cheer myself up, and bought a new project to start working on... Here we take a look at the new toy and the big plans for tuning it!

Please get Al in and give the biker feed back on a serious fast cars.... 44th are awesome. Best Bike KZbin channel.

[@ianhoyle8459]

Beautiful car; red and black looks wicked. I’m enjoying your videos because of your no nonsense, open approach and interesting work. Hope you’re back to feeling 100% soon 👍

[@cwmdu86]

The videos with Guy brought me here and I'm really looking forward to seeing Al from 44 teeth's reactions

[@SoloVagant]

Same here mate ...

[@vaughanmsc]

Same here

[@jamest5149]

Please keep the ‘geeky stuff’. I love the proper analysis. Testing, set a goal and analysis the way forward to a plan.

[@gareththwaite5128]

I've only found your channel the last view days... Wow I feel like I've been missing out. Great channel, knowledgeable conversion, can't wait for more

[@MustyChapstick]

Found your channel recently! and I have to say the geeky stuff is a refreshing change to the usual KZbin stuff out there! keep up the awesome content guys!

[@pinderwagen]

Looking forward to following this project. In particular the N/A side first THEN adding Turbos. Actually show if MoTeC is any real benefit for someone with an n/a car (I suspect not, but who knows until you actually test it) Nice to hear you addressing the fact you become a bit 'meh' with these cars and what you do with them. When I watch your videos and you say "Oh, then we just put MoTeC on it" That's over £10,000. On an ECU. That's just so far outside what I do with my project that I find it hard to comprehend, so showing what it actually does would be interesting. I appreciate the customers you deal with have different budgets to me ;)

[@davetowler1205]

Loads of people will enjoy the in depth tech talk and plans you have for videos. Look forward to seeing more.

[@abccba3903]

Yes, definitely get The Baron & Al Fagan in the car, they are a great team.

[@REPerformanceUK]

👍🏼😂

[@THYROTRON]

Be patient Ricky you will repair pal.

[@alfixn]

Love the geeky engine videos too. Hope your arm and hand get better soon!

[@hristohristov8787]

I'm glad that you are ok and you feel better now.The new project will be absolutely exciting and I'm sure you will come with some really good ideas and incredible results!!!

[@unamed_user902]

Dream car, so jealous, tons of hard work you guys have put in deserve to buy ur selves a treat I think you should wrap the colours of ur logo Purple colour with white sideblades and black wheels something like that

[@andrewandlm]

Definitely try and get Fagan in. The audience cross-over from bikes to cars will be amazing.

[@Franz_giblet]

Great content, extremely professional. Love the in depth explanations 👍🏻

[@benclinch6056]

Car looks amazing. Can’t wait to see the build, not a fan of Red but it really suits the car. Well done Ricky, you deserve it.

[@kevdavies3445]

really enjoyed this vid glad you are over the worse be ggod to watch the development of your R8 stunning car

[@alternativeperception6949]

That car is awesome, love the colour also . Glad your on the mend 👍

[@jamest5149]

I too have ‘forged internals’ Ti plates and screws from a compound fracture (both bones out the skin) of my right arm... that was 94, still struggle to use a screw driver with that arm due to wrist and hand damage... bikes 🤦‍♂️ Scars are a good talking point 😂

[@varchitectinblack3307]

Congrats Ricky! The car is awesome! Onwards and upwards - can’t wait to see this in the flesh when I’m down in June. With regards to wrap have a look at Inozetek Midnight Purple - will match your bike and logo. I’ve got my beemer wrapped in it and it literally looks like paint. - Although I’m wondering if u subconsciously chose Red & Black for that bloody team of yours 😉

[@Nate6874]

I loved your "i've now got Forged Internals"

[@sportzntouring]

"Forged Internals" 😮 Speedy recovery Ricky

[@housey4297]

Red is the best R8 colour as you well know! Like my old one, but Mk2. Enjoy Ricky.

[@tomredman5411]

👍looking forward.

[@garethbream1016]

[@deanbaldwin3540]

Beautiful car reward your hard work nice self present

[@steventilley2064]

Really thought it was going to be a Mclaren for some reason. Lets see this with a fully built motor and all the toys on and see what it can do. Be nice to smash all these other shops with US kits

[@MrJwwhasabetterchannel]

Congratulations mate! Car looks mega !

[@Nicka2003]

Glad you’re on the mend boss!

[@philipbennett2183]

Hi that Snap On box looks very nice. (8' 48'') Would look even better in my garage .

[@REPerformanceUK]

You're on! lol

[@7071t6]

Do a complete engine build and what type or grade are the alloys used in various parts,especially moving parts which are coated with anti friction coating and hi temp coatings and also how much real balancing is done when building a V8 or V10 lambo engine and which parts are balanced and where the material is removed to make sure each moving part is perfectly as can get in weight and moving balanced etc.:) Love a upload about that?

[@clumhain]

just found you! Glad you are on the mend. Great channel , keep her lit!

[@REPerformanceUK]

Thank you! Will do!

[@traxx2k722]

There is another r8 turbokit manufacturer in Europe. BK Performance in Germany, they build a gtx35 based kit. Btw cool channel, its always cool when bike guys build cars.

[@neilking6258]

When I broke my arm I treated myself to a bag of pick n mix, Ricky buys an R8, different gravy.

[@REPerformanceUK]

lol

[@southney7211]

Good story, had me laughing about the helmet 😄

[@dragonshadow3707]

Hey bud looking forward to seeing what you do with this

[@REPerformanceUK]

Thank you!

[@jamest5149]

‘I am gan nooow’ 😂

[@peterdainton9410]

Good lad get back on it

[@robertburton4622]

Proper brilliant channel guys I did think it was going to be a mclaren. Could you also do a feature on the evo skoda

[@REPerformanceUK]

Planning to do one on the Skoda! Thank you!

[@Colin_Wait]

Red is the only choice as everyone knows red ones go faster

[@steventilley2064]

[@davecrewe9074]

Your knowledge is fascinating

[@REPerformanceUK]

Thank you!

[@843idfa]

1:53 Performante exhaust? Would like to see a video on that. Was thinking of doing the same thing, wasn't sure if it would work.

[@amitdesai1978]

Forged internals 😂😂 legend

[@ashleyscarth8363]

Nice car leave it red

[@dougashurst2022]

Watch out for rsd, with having a crash with your arm, LOOK RSD UP, I HOPE U DONT GET IT, PROBABLY WON'T, BUT KEEP AN EYE OUT ...

[@REPerformanceUK]

Thanks!!

[@yorkshirepud3030]

“Audighini”

[@peterwood2633]

Daft question but motech ECU nothing to do with the BMW garage motech?! Love red R8s

[@REPerformanceUK]

No nothing at all. MoTeC electronics, they do stuff for LMP, GT3, super bikes etc.

[@abdullaumirza3995]

R8

[@7071t6]

its all about the right gear ratios and hp based on the car weight, if you want to go from 100 miles per hour to 200 miles per hour as quickly as possible, its that simple, but to do that the gears and diff ratios have to be made from scratch and then the hp figers have to be right up there, a stock engine with stock running gear auto / transmission and diff, is not going to get you 100 miles per hour to 200 per hour, other than stock figers, but with the right tools and knowledge and expertise, it can be done, but why bother, when you have such a great car in the fist place, well each to their own as they say?

[@pawilson1978]

Dude, was that crash on your BMW? 😔 Edit, watch more of the video to find out... 😂🙈

[@REPerformanceUK]

Yeah. My superbike.

[@isuavingalaff]

you bought a car to cheer you up.....lol...what a joke...sort it out bigman

[@REPerformanceUK]

It’s a video title!........lol

[@kateelder307]

Glad you enjoyed the joke its good to have a sense of humour 🤦🏼‍♀️.
