Spring Sprint - Being a Racing Driver at Goodwood !

[@Viperrm64]

Loved this video of you and Ruby in action and we loved being there in person to watch you" live" as it were. Still astounded at the speed around the circuit you go in Ruby but knowing your skill first hand(as a passenger)you make it look so easy Peter, hopefully see you at Goodwood for Supercar Sunday.

[@PetrolPed]

Cheers Rob, and thanks for coming along to support, it was great seeing you both :-)

[@gavinivers8941]

Well done. Shows you can do a lot of motorsport and have fun for not a lot of money. Cool Cars!

[@PetrolPed]

Totally agree :-)

[@MCSmartboy]

Great video, really give a flavour of the event!

[@PetrolPed]

Cheers Martin, glad you enjoyed it :-)

[@FuriousKnight]

Really enjoyed watching this little insight into just how easy it is to go racing. I might have to give it a crack next year !! Top vids as always 👍

[@PetrolPed]

It's a great way to get started. Best of luck and let me know how you get on :-)

[@lanechandler9469]

A tip : watch series on Flixzone. I've been using them for watching loads of movies during the lockdown.

[@rogerjesus6388]

@Lane Chandler yup, I've been watching on flixzone for since december myself :)

[@chasepalpatine170]

What great fun, thanks for sharing.

[@PetrolPed]

It was indeed...glad you enjoyed it :-)

[@craiga3277]

Enjoyed watching the video, I really want to try a sprint at Goodwood at some point!

[@PetrolPed]

You should give it a go. It's great fun :-)

[@fishatethecat]

Nice vid Pete. Brave man driving round Goodwood with your brake pads about to fall off.

[@PetrolPed]

Not ideal :-)

[@1BLUEMEANIE]

Well Peter I think a big brake kit and cat back exhaust is on the cards. Speed is just a question of money how fast do you want to go.🏁🏁👍

[@PetrolPed]

There are so many mods I could do !

[@strikeeaglemodels1588]

Great race and great day out mate :)

[@PetrolPed]

Cheers :-)

[@nickjh1968]

Great stuff, some real commitment there Peter. I wonder what Nick Swift could do in Ruby? :)

[@PetrolPed]

I need even more next time. Nick Swift probably would go near it as it's not a proper Mini ! I parked in the paddock bay next to him at last years Members Meeting Test Day. He wasn't too impressed to start with but at the end of the day he did say it was pretty quick !

[@stevier100]

Peter, I could probably help you quite a bit with the times, there was a lot of lifting there, the old saying goes you're either on the brakes or on the throttle & nothing in between, get yourself an extra set of wheels, put slicks on them and put them in the boot, change them when you get there and you'll have so much more fun...I might have to get my car out ;)

[@PetrolPed]

I've since changed my tyres to Michelin Pilot Super Sports...so much better :-) I know I was lifting to much...just my self preservation kicking in !!

[@Dan46851]

Sweet video! Any chance you could get an mx5 review?? Love to see that!!

[@PetrolPed]

I'd really like to drive the new MX5, it's on my list :-)

[@trojanwalrus2928]

I still think you need some camber on the front. Try an autosolo with 1° front camber. Great vid

[@PetrolPed]

Thanks, I should really try some more track focussed set up.

[@trojanwalrus2928]

It's a great way to unlock more performance without adding after-market parts.

[@iancross5370]

Really enjoyed that Pete. Which cars did you beat? I'm liking your race helmet very nice👍

[@PetrolPed]

The MG SV8, Porsche Boxster 986 and a Brooke 260RR :-)

[@tobywalker2904]

You looked quick anyway

[@PetrolPed]

Give me better brake and I would have been even quicker ;-)

[@FurkanCemTurfanda]

Sound limit on a track? That seems pretty damn silly.

[@PetrolPed]

Most, if not all, race tracks in the have noise limits. Goodwood is near to a number of villages. They have permission to have a certain number of 98dB and 105dB days each year and these are very closely monitored and reported on. They have just 5 days a year when the circuit can run with no limit. Those days are used for Goodwood Revival and Members Meeting.

[@wilfredbirch6786]

Get Ruby remapped, timings will fall I guarantee it. Good effort.

[@PetrolPed]

I know I know :-)
