Seeing you guys in a more "non scripted" environment is refreshing and the content is very interesting! To be honest, contrary to my initial expectations, the racing part was excellent and extremely well presented! I loved it and it really got me involved, more so than most of the racing events televised these days. Well done! I wouldn't mind seeing you guys doing something similar again! :)

    Just when I thought you guys had topped out, you manage to find a way to not only go over the top, but way down the other side. Donating the car to such a worthy cause is a really, really special thing to do, especially a car that is so well sorted and so ready for many more people to enjoy. That you have the companies on board to provide all the goodies all around and make it a very complete package is even better. Finally, the charity is a top notch concept, and the fact that racers put their heart and soul into helping out such a deserving group makes it even better.
    Hate to see the car go, love to see the car go somewhere good, and my already high esteem for the lot of you has gone up many more notches.
    Keep up the great work.

    Time to weld a new bracket to the kettle and get back to finishing a bit more of Binky, like the bump steer.....again.
    Good job lads, cracking work and looked like a lot of fun. I shall certainly be keeping an eye on mission motorsport too.

    It's criminal that the Bad Obsession Motorsport channel doesn't have 10x the amount of subscribers and video views! This is the best presented and most humourous YT channels I've ever watched and the level of detail, explanation, OCD and innuendo is a wonderful thing to see and hear! Absolutely awesome and well done guys! on the best channel on YT IMHO!

    That’s a proper home for the WRC. A properly decent donation from BOM.
    I understand why you were comparing the real racer with sim racing but there’s no real world comparison between the two. The skills, ingenuity and talents required for the two disciplines are worlds apart. Add in that sim racing is by its very name a simulation and the level of commitment required for real racing, development, repair, travelling / transporting, race prep, testing, racing, and so on, means that you are really on a totally different level of hobby. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy sim racing but there’s nothing that compares to a bacon butty on a Sunday morning stood under a glorified gazebo in the pissing rain at Croft or Lydden Hill and having a chat about the various merits of curry houses across the nation. 😀
    Great job of documenting the journey and I hope you have plans to do something similar next year.
    *Spot on about the marshals, their commitment to motorsport makes it all possible, can’t thank them enough*

    Truly inspirational. You've demonstrated how to take a shopping trolley and make it race-ready and then topped it off with being excellent human beings. I'll certainly be out in 2021 cheering on the Mission Motorsport Team in the Citroen.

    This is one of those rare moments UA-cam recommended me the first episode and here I am, two days later, watching the last one. I really enjoyed it, can't wait for what's next, I am subscribed now.

    • @Ripperoo2010
      @Ripperoo2010 3 роки тому

      Same here! Only it was was Project Binky 33 that came up on the recommended panel and when I heard the phrase "Billy Big Balls here is confident in his own ability....", when referring to the paint guy, Tony doing the C&P, I just had to watch the first episode from 2013, right through to the episode 33 again. The humour is so so refreshing and right up my street, especially since Woke! Then when I finished the almost 8 year Binkyathon, it was onto Bargain Racement and what a great gesture at the end!!!!! I just cannot believe it's taken so long for this to have been recommended in the first place, but also pleased as I was able to watch the lot over three days (including this) instead of waiting all those years like some folk have. Absolutely brilliant lads!

    This Mini Series has been and is one my favourites on the channel... well no it isn't, the whole channel deserves to be my favourite. Well done Gentlemen, the car, the fabrication, the filming, the racing and finally donating it to charity. Chapeau. As for the massive member(s) of the BOM Team. How about a short behind the scenes? Also, thanks for the shoutout to all the marshalls, Without any single one of them no races would be possible at all (or even the "Touristenfahrten" on the Nordschleife). This, as always, has been epic!

  • @ragwort3369

    I've really enjoyed this series, thank you for making it! I've spent a good deal of time around motor racing paddocks as a spectator, a scrutineer, a photographer and a hanger-on, and this has been a really cool insight into the competitor's point of view. Also it reminds me how much I've missed the atmosphere over the last year or so! Lovely to see a shout out to the marshalls, too: when I was doing a lot of motorsports photography I used to make a point of getting a few shots of the orange army at work. As you say, without mashalls there is no motorsport. Looking forward to the return of Binky and the Escargot.

    I’ll be honest, I didn’t watch these when you uploaded them because I was grouchy it had seemed to replace the Binky content, but this was utterly fantastic and the donation to charity at the end couldn’t have been better. I’d love to see more racing content like this from you! Brilliant, fantastic work. Thanks.
