Anglesey Wales Track Day in the Race Car
UK Trip with trackdays.ie. First stop Angelsey, lovely track, lovely food and it didn't rain so had a great day. Didn't push too hard as going to Oulton Park the next day. About 25 cars from Ireland on the Trip so great buzz and banter among the car enthusiasts. Enjoy the video ! Boo Yaka Sha

Put in a new Drivers seat in Jan, did another bolt check and had a good Blast in Jan. Brakes still not feeling confident in them and handling a bit over steer ish. Did service after that and new plugs, adjusted rear 10mm higher and roll bar 10mm forward. What a difference in Feb, like a new car. Really enjoyed February and great crack with Diarmuid in his new S2000. Hope you enjoy the video.

Nürburgring Best Lap - Ringfreaks 328i

This was my best clean lap with no yellows, second last one of the weekend. Definitely could go quicker and slowed down in parts due to Fear and also letting cars past which is regular occurrence at the Ring. The Ringfreaks car is perfect for beginner doing some laps on the Ring. Suspension, brakes and handling spot on. See can you spot the 4 slow down areas ;) @Ringfreaks @HQTrackdays

Bucket List trip to the Ring. Fly out Sat night, hire car and drive to the Dorint Hotel at the F1 Track. Couple of hours sleep and collect the car and Patrick Steinmetz ( Pro Driver with AMG ) Nervous drive to the Ring and first lap. To have such a cool calm dude beside me was great. Otherwise I would have been very scared. Guided me through the track with clear instructions. Great tips from Pa...

Loving the Ali G. Great stuff as always Richie. You bollox😅😅😅
🤣🤣 Cheers Joe
That track looks like a lot of fun in your race car :) Nice driving as always
@@spareroomracing3168 Cheers Joe. It was good crack alright 😁
🤣🤣 ali g at the start
🤣 I had to get that clip in there 👍
😅
That's not a funny short. It's more of a 💪or 👌 😁
@@HQTrackdays that's not a funny reaction , that's a sweating face 😎🤣
😂
👍👊
gowan bai
Get back to work 😄
Could you please answer me a few questions. I've never been to a track day before, I've only done the single seater driving experience at Mondello a few times which is good fun but only uses part of the track and It would be nice to hava a go on the full track. I was thinking about booking August 5 for a half day. First question is can you use any car? I drive a 2014 mazda 6 estate which is obviously by no means a race car but still handles fairly nice and secondly do you have to wear a helmet. I've read the terms and conditions and there is no mention of it.
Hi Pat, minimum you need is a car,helmet and driving licence. You can hire helmets from trackdays.ie Check your car has plenty of oil, brake pads and fuel. That's all you need. Ease yourself into it and make sure check tyre pressures and wheel nuts. Plenty of people there that you can borrow pressure gauge etc I should be there that morning so pop over to say hello.
I done a more detailed video on your first track day so no harm to watch that a few times 😉
Here's the video ua-cam.com/video/8kXEYFVhSqU/v-deo.htmlsi=LWBPyPaZDiEx_yy_
Amazing skills man! Nes from Maxol deli.
Thanks Nes 👊 there is something in that coffee 😄
Nice video was a fun watch! I spotted my car for a hot second as well lol
Thanks Joe. I get you in the next one 😉
@@HQTrackdays Ha all good :) See you Monday if you're coming
@@spareroomracing3168 should be there for the morning 👍
@@HQTrackdays Nice :)
Going well Richie, Jarek reckons you're a class driver watching it here :o)
😁 Cheers Paul and Jarek. It's just good editing 😂
Was a very wet slippy day!
It was very hairy alright 😂
Cheers Michael. Your looking well there in the profile. Hope all is good 👍
Bossman still having a blast at the circuts. Love to see it.
Nice driving, looking really comfortable with it now. Cool to see how it goes against a wide range of Honda's !
Thanks Beircheart. Enjoying it more now alright after a shaky start. Glad you enjoyed it 😁
Excellent, that looked like great fun
Cheers 👊 it is great crack to drive 😃
Nice driving in the RT2000 Richie. That's me in the Honda S2000 AP1, 2.0l 240bhp race car. Still trying to get used to RWD on track.
Cheers Diarmuid 👍
SHP RT2000 space frame chasis. Ford Duratec 2.0 Quaife straight cut 5 speed gearbox 200 bhp 200 nm 850kg
Good vid Richie, car is flying 👌
Cheers Paul and thanks for all the mechanical advice and support 👊
This turned into a sketch from hardybucks 😆
😅 glad you enjoyed it
Overtake at the end sounded class, some power 👍
Cheers 👍 it has plenty of poke 😃
Any mods done to the car or is it standard
Standard Engine, Coilovers and stripped out Interior with a basic Seat were only mods then. Did few other bits after but nothing major 👍
@@HQTrackdays great job 👏 your some pilot , I’ve watched all your videos as I’m looking to do track day this summer in my mk5gti you gave me a good insight 👍
@@decg7315 Thanks for the compliment 😁 Drop over to say hello if your down. Should be there for all trackdays.ie 👍 Delighted you enjoy the videos. Cheers 👊
nice if ya have the money
It's an expensive hobby alright
This is cool, what is it?
It's a space frame chassis race car. Company in the UK SHP Engineering. In Ireland they were called "RT 2000" and then "Irish Supercars" 👍
You're a braver man than I!
I am putting a spare seat in for 2024 so I put your name down for few laps😁👍
I raced around mondello for my first time about a little over a week ago, it was great crack.
Good stuff Brian. It's an addiction so probably see you there next year 👍
Savage car man. Would be nice to see a video showing what's done to it. 🤙
Cheers man 👊 I might do an end of year special 😅
What is the lap time now? ❤
From this morning? Not great 😅
You're getting to grips with it now 💪👍
Cheers Paul 😃
Enjoyable video! The wing seems like its flexing too much, you could try using a piece of sheet metal on the inside of the boot to distribute the load, you should have a look at cross bracing!
Thanks 👍 will look for better wing for 2024. It's a bit loose all right
Stock engine?
It's stock engine, tuned a little and fully Race prepared for the track. Will rent it again on my next visit
Fantastic Richard!
Cheers Brian 😉 don't tell UA-cam I asked you to comment 😂
Cones Roomster
Cheers Declan 👍
Helmet cam looks class, cracking lap
Cheers MOB 😁👊
What 3 Series is it Richie? Some experience I’d say!
It's the F30 328i. The car is well setup for the Ring as you can see from the way he throws it around 😅
Was a great experience Graham. Would recommend it 💯👍
"When people start and the limit and then come down, it's an expensive way to learn" Good advice that!
Sure is. That's why my first lap is slow 😂
looks like you had a great time. Can't go wrong with a ring rental :)
It was a great couple of days. First lap was surreal. Car was perfect 👍
Some crack that lad Richie 😂😂
He is Mr zen 😂 wait till you see him drive it 😲
Was myself in the radical 😂 I thought the bmw guy seen me coming. Turns out he didn’t!
BMW Drivers 😄 You were flat out all day. Passengers got value for money there. If I see you coming I leave a gap 👍😂
looks like great crack,enjoy.
Hi Eoin,there is no instructor in that video. That's a bit of fun with the lads from work 👍
You could do with a haircut 😅
Just got one 💈😉
Hi Richie, this is David that was driving the c63, we will be back in mondello on the 18th of this month, just wondering are you going that day
How's it going David Unfortunately not. On holidays with family in Wales that week. Probably the only one I will miss all year. That's a pain in a*** have the new car so I would be able to keep up with you 😂 enjoy it
I just watched your latest video, best of luck with the new car, looks like a beast. It's a pity alright, I've new suspension fitted and an lsd as well, so she'd drift better in the corners 😁😁
@@davidoneill2966 I was out today in new car. All issues sorted. Ended up coming off in last session and slid into tyre wall via gravel. Cosmetic stuff. Didn't have camera on which is more annoying 😅 Enjoy the day. Let me know next time your up 👍
Glad it's only cosmetic 👍 and good to hear you have the issues sorted, all part of a build I suppose. I'm up again on the 13th of October, it's the Deane motors track day, some of the buddies don't want to do an open track day 🫣😁
@@davidoneill2966 I might look that up and see can I get to that one too 👍 have a good one next week. Go easy on the Tyres 😂
Fuck that car needed me driving it, she has so much more potential and was wasted. Not a bad drive, but can easily push her way more into and out of the corners.
Can't argue with that. Could definitely be pushed faster. There are more recent videos. Watch a few of them and see what you think. Any tips let me know 👍
Are helmets 100% mandatory even as a passenger? If so do they have to be Motorsport approved (fia)? And whares the best place to get one? Thanks
Helmet is mandatory James. Cheap one is around 100-150. Trackdays.ie will rent helmet for you or Murray Motorsport or Ears.ie to buy Irish 🇮🇪 👍
Cool. Looking forward to my initiation.
🤣 wait until the new car 🚗 👍
Best of luck with the new car Richie
Cheers Gerry man 😀
Epic! Looking forward to seeing more of it
Cheers Adam 👍 me too 😀
Nice to meet you that day! Was a great day! Was in the white R33 GTST. What kind of times are you getting?
Lower than you I suspect 😅 best lap is 2:07.2! Won't be there tomorrow unfortunately. You were hitting some speed on the straight 💪 Nice car 👍
😂😂 that was a good one! Matthew's facial expressions are priceless!
🤣 Cheers Paul 👍
😂😂
Great fun! Lol at Matthew holding his head on 😂 My boss is an Accountant, we have great craic adding things up - just saying!
😂 Remote working 💪
