Wow that was the best 30 mins I've spent on youtube for years. I absolutely love Endurance racing and wish I could have been there with my camera for some great pics. Hope you mend 100% soon. Thanks lads👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I just watched this vid on my lunch break from a winery and vineyard in south Ga (USA) and i was laughing and crying by the end. I just and simply LOVE the content y’all produce. THANK YOU.
Loved this. Congratulations on finishing!! The Le Mans 24h is an epic thing to experience as a spectator (I must have been 15 times over the years) and this gave a fantastic view into how the racers feel during it. It's an endurance for spectators too btw!! If you've never been to watch it, do yourselves a favour and get over there!! EPIC!
well done for finishing the race, the 24hrs was on my bucket list of races to watch and I made it 2 years ago, would love to go back. it is a very special race and a special atmosphere even more so when all the fans are there.
When I was a kid, we visited Boston in a rental van. We scraped the hell out of the roof in a parking garage. 🤣. The rental company never noticed the extensive damage. 🍺
Fantastic effort Boothy and the team. About 6 years ago I did a 24 hour endurance kart race and having not raced for over 10 years I know the pain after doing a couple of stints, the forearm pump at the end of 50 minutes (per stint) was unbelievable. Hats off to you guys doing 24 hours on a bike....
Top job Boothy; & many thanks for taking us along for the ride. Team 44Teeth (inc. Statham) at next year's Le Mans? Let's 'avit! ps Get Perkins along too - & he can open a 24 hr massage parlour out the back. It'll help swell the coffers (and keep him out the way) innit. 👍
Great vid lads, thanks. Good result against the big boys. Endurance racing is brutal, everyone thinks it’s a bit of a gentleman’s race, but it’s just a very long sprint these days. Reminded me of the old Team Bike endurance team from the 80’s. Anyone else remember them? Used to campaign a race prepped CB900. (Yeah I’m old!)
Bloody, bloody well done! Did a 9 hour (average track day pace) with 2 other blokes. Was broken, dead tired physically. And that was on an '08 Blade streetbike with only a fairing, race pads and oil done. A 24 hour race in wet and dry on a 200hp race bike.... Off the f***ing charts. Well done mate.
@@weaselman24 Yeah good description of the pain. I played a 20min old boys game a couple years ago after a long lay off and very little prep, and the week-after pain was very similar 🤣
Fair play to you young man for having a go. French endurance teams are serious affaire's. I have only been to Le mans for 24 car race 1992, it is an awesome venue. I have spectated French superbike races many times. The competitors are just as crazy keen. Here is a amusing story. Me & my wife on tour on the ZX-6R in 2002, rode into the paddock at Val de Vienne circuit, the gates were open. A German club had booked the venue for 3 days. Chatted to a few lads (my wife's German is OK) walked through the boxes to pit lane, asked where the clerk of the course was ( we were wanting info for events) "that's him on the 916 thundering past the pit straight" the club leader said "hey, you want to ride the track, it's OK, you can do this" as tempted as I was, my Ninja had to get us home to England.
Top video! Takes me back to the years with my family's privateer team in the Bol, Le Mans, Spa. The riders in our team did double stints at night so each one had enough time to get a decent sleep in.
Boothy is epic, to carry on with a busted hand shows a level of toughness and strong will that most of us just don’t have. Also he’s a natural in front of the camera and funny too 🤣
Great effort. Really well done 👏 Endurance racing is unbelievably gruelling so fair play. The taking a piss in the dark at someone else's house analogy was descriptive gold 🤣👍
Pain threshold clearly meets 44Teeth requirements. Are we going to see how fast is he on a GSX-R125 again? When’s the next round of the Freetech 125 Enduro Championship? This needs to be a regular feature.
I know how tired I was after one 20 minute track day session this summer... I can’t imagine how one can go in such a rhythm for such a long period of time! Good job guys, loved the video!
It's probably THE best way to learn to ride smooth. You come round after your first 10 mins thinking you've done half an hour and the pitboard says 50mins left in your stint!! 🤦♂️ You soon learn to relax... and breathe... then you go faster. Or crash. Lol.
@@KRANKiT If you get the chance to try it. Do it. We did the KRC series back in 2005-6 and it's the best fun I ever had. The team spirit is incredible and knowing how good it felt just to finish an 8 hour race... well I can only imagine what a 24hr race must be like. Fantastic 🤟
Something I’ve always wanted to do (Lemans). I’ve done some endurance stuff but would need a lot more seat time to ready myself for something like this.
I've broken loads of bones as well and you can definitely tell when you've broken something when you've done it so many times. Well done finishing a face with a broken hand!
More quality stuff and brilliant video from the 44 teeth boys and Boothy makes a superb addition with his own style to bring something different. Fair play even riding a bike with a broken arm never mind completing a 24 hour race ffs ...... we are not worthy
Respect for doing it and definitely finishing, plenty of teams with far more money don't manage it. Any biker/race fan should go watch this race at least once. Its one hell of an event and the french make a real festival of it that puts the likes of Silverstone to shame... camp site is an experience in itself lol.
Great result! Can’t imagine how cool it would be to find yourself on the grid. And what a hero with that monster hand. Think I would have flaked out and gone quacks 😉 kudos. Loving 44teeth
I've never really been interested in bike racing but I loved this vid, the boy did good 👍🏼 And 'with a headlight that's not worth a wank' is my favourite quote ever! 😂
awesome video. I enjoy riding bikes and have done some track days but would never have the balls to do this. Well done for fighting the pain boothy as best you could.
Great work,been there done that as a pit monkey for Phase one,Neate racing saw the boys and girls at the Bol last Sept,also watched Dave Railton when he did endurance back in the day.
Top job! I must’ve worked about 20 24hr races now and the trick to staying on it is get to about 14hours, 15min power nap, wake up go play the five finger fiddle and brush your teeth, it’s like hitting reset, works every time😂
Years ago I did a 24 hrs. relay race for charity. We alternated running 1 mile stints for the duration on a track. Freakin' exhausting. By the end it felt like some poured glass in your eye lids. And the sunrise came at just the right time to give you that extra boost to make it to the finish. Like Bootsy said it's hard to put into words, there's excitement, adrenaline, comradery, pain, fatigue, sense of duty, fatigue.......did I mention fatigue. Finally, an incredible sense of accomplishment...
Strueth. And then he twists his foot through 90°? Not Boothy's year! Great video. Have to admire the stoicism. Guts! Looking forward to non A&E videos in 2021. Cheers!
Best of luck with the scaphoid. Mines screwed together with a bone graft off the hip, and I was in plaster (although I switched to fibreglass and goretex) for 11 months. Of course part of that's because at first they didn't think it was broken, and then about a month after breaking it I completely separated it doing a bench press.
Honestly don't really bother with any other Moto channels anymore. Why bother when we've got the gift of 44teeth? Got a cracking addition to the team with Northern Peep Show Jeremy now too. Great effort and content lads, as always.
Boothy: "Get back on the bike ASAP" Boothy soon thereafter: "Well lads, I'm back in hospital getting ready for surgery. Ankles hanging off me leg after having a get off, hopefully back on the bike ASAP"
Now that’s more like it guys good content well presented and funny, Leman I’ve been going for nearly 30 years top event! I And if you lads are going crowdfund it I’d be more than happy to Chuck in and give a bit of support👍
Great achievement to compete at short notice, and to the whole team for finishing and achieving a decent position. At least it's only your left hand that got hurt, so if you find a headlight worth it... 🤣
I started to watch this video…. Then picked my phone up to reply to a message and honest to god, when Boothy spoke I thought it was Gary Neville!! I thought the phone had started playing ‘the overlap’ or something 🤣
Massive congratulations Boothy and the boys for not just giving a crack, but actually finishing the race. Well in lads!
you boys got clever bringing on a guy who's clearly up to the job and fits right in at 44. cheers
Loving Boothy's style of vlogging interlaced through the story! The behind the scenes stuff really makes these new videos great.
Totally agree 👍
“Your headlight is not worth a wank” absolute gold mate 😂
The whole time with the van I'm thinking: "jump on the bumper mate!"
Same here,,,,,
I was thinking just let some of the air out of the tires!
Drag the handbrake was my thought.
Same here!!! 😂👍🏻
I was screaming that out too👍🏻You could barely fit a feeler gauge between that gap
16:45 that wheel behind Boothy's head looks like a sombrero. Suits him
44t 2020:
Sue Perkins,
Jason Statham and now:
Robert Webb’s northern brother
Well done lad 👍🏻
😂
Solid work that, racing to finish with a broken wrist 😬
Great spirit Boothy!

Amazing content, never realized 24hr endurance was so brutal
Finishing a 24hr race with a broken hand. Boothy's a fucking legend
I really enjoy this format of sitting on a sofa chatting mixed in with footage from the day
7:20 this guy needs a bigger mask lol
No he needs a smaller head!!
At least he is covering his nose unlike others!!
Loved this. Congratulations on finishing!!

Until now with internet logarithms!
@@raynic1173 It’s all good, my grandfather rented it and he died 16 years ago. I wish the rental company the best of luck. 😂
@@fivespeed3026 If your name comes up in the hunger games, don't be surprised, lol.
Yikes lol. Good job you're an honest person ;)
I wouldn't have minded if it was a rental... but that's my own van!
What a legend for not letting the team down! I have had reconstructive surgery on my Scaphoid as well itsba real bugger. I hope you heal up quick.
Lads a trouper, riding with a broken arm/hand on a 24h is proper big balls and grit... a great addition to the 44 team...

Don't worry lad, you're not the only one to get lost at Castle Hill. Hopefully next time you'll stay rubber side down for the full race.

Tougher than me mate. I did a 6 hour on a superstock 675 and felt like the local rugby team kicked the poo out of me then left me to bake in the sun.

Sylvain Guintolly, RyanF9, Zack, and Ari would like a word with you.
Great effort. Really well done 👏
Endurance racing is unbelievably gruelling so fair play.
The taking a piss in the dark at someone else's house analogy was descriptive gold 🤣👍
yet another great vid, thanks for cheering me up on a wet dark winter Monday afternoon
19:03 I’m impressed still having the ability to dodge the kick to the head!
I simply love the way that you describe the whole experience simply enthralling
Im late but epic job. Seeing Boothy's euphoria at the end was fantastic. Its time I do an endurance race of my own...on Ride 4.
Pain threshold clearly meets 44Teeth requirements. Are we going to see how fast is he on a GSX-R125 again? When’s the next round of the Freetech 125 Enduro Championship? This needs to be a regular feature.
Final round of the championship is done and filmed. Be up soon
Loving the Boothy content. Great addition to the team.
Awesome! What a trooper. I do hope you guys are able to set it up, the three of you in Le Mans, that would be a massive dream race.
Can’t even get Chris to do his ACU, never mind get an international licence 😂
@@FortyFourTeeth In that case, he can do tea, biscuits and entertainment ;)

Great effort and interesting look at endurance racing. Boothy is a proper addition to the 44teeth crew. 😀
Awesome content as ever, what a magnificent thing to be able to do.
Something I’ve always wanted to do (Lemans). I’ve done some endurance stuff but would need a lot more seat time to ready myself for something like this.
Class .... love the analogies.... great shadow as usual fellas
This is proper racing. Well done lads. Great result!
That was wicked :)
Props for adding the post-race operation too. I hope it heals up nicely
well done to Boothy and his team mates, something we'd all like to do.
I've broken loads of bones as well and you can definitely tell when you've broken something when you've done it so many times. Well done finishing a face with a broken hand!
After braking hand:
"You didn't get any slower did you?"
"No, I went faster!"
Hehe :)
Absolutely splendid content again lads ✊🏻 loved watching an amazing achievement 🏆
You guys are some legit riders! Really awesome to see!
Great video, honestly told story. Looked bloody tough. Well done lad.
Noice!, Best bike content on the tube,hid chappin loons!
I know right? Then there are these lame channels here in the states with 900k subscribers. Can't believe these guys haven't broken 300k (yet).
They don’t play the subs game, just try and make good stuff
More quality stuff and brilliant video from the 44 teeth boys and Boothy makes a superb addition with his own style to bring something different. Fair play even riding a bike with a broken arm never mind completing a 24 hour race ffs ...... we are not worthy
love endurance racing been to lemans and the bol many times hopefully back to see it next year. awesome job to even finish
Thanks for sharing the excellent experience backed with the usual humour.You guys are as tough as nails.
I like the halfords socket set ‘step up’ for the refueler, I have one in the shed, guess it has a new use now if I ever go racing 😂

That's dedication, to keep vlogging right up to the operation.
So, next year, 24h of Le Mans with Jason Statham, Boothy and Sue Perkins?
Got me LMAO at "I'm not normally that fat"
Massive congrats, I would love to do that even just the pit crew side of it, what a top experience!

Boothy: "Get back on the bike ASAP"
Boothy soon thereafter: "Well lads, I'm back in hospital getting ready for surgery. Ankles hanging off me leg after having a get off, hopefully back on the bike ASAP"

Heal up soon Boothy, great piece of content!
Is that the real James East??
@@FortyFourTeeth I'm also a James East who is massively into bikes but not the one you're thinking of, we just share the same name.
