This is just fkn awesome, I try tell kids today what it was like in the fkn great 80/90's, they haven't done shit today. LOL. Can you imagine a track today encouraging drivers to go nuts ! burnouts, doughnuts, crazy shit. We had it all and I loved every fkn minute, still a car nut today and still do trackdays in an E46. Great vid! Cheers, from an old car mad raver.
@@freddieparrydrums You are a realist young Man, it really was much better back then, I feel for you Man and what is to come. I bought my 1968 Plymouth Roadrunner here in the UK in 1984...I was 22 years old, I still have it today now i'm 60, aint no way a 22year old today could EVER do that, its a cruel World now, take care
@@markholroyde9412 Wow, that is fantastic. My dad owns a 71 Rover P5B. He's had it since he was 30! It's completely original. I am looking to keep jt forever, but not looking forward too all of this rubbish electric car stuff!
@@freddieparrydrums Good for you mate, dont fall into the trap that tech is the be all and end all of things, the electric car crap is just a collapsing ponzi scheme with no infrastructure to support it
Brilliant, back when track days were a laugh driving disposable hot hatches. The ones that survived that era are worth a fortune now. RS500 is a good example!
First time I went there the lady in the shed took 50p for a 3 hour morning session (or 75p for the day) . Some cows got through the fence and shat on the racing line through the chicane though and it was ages before the farmer came to get them . 😂😂
I’m too young to have experienced this era of hot hatches and whatnot, regardless though doesn’t mean I don’t respect these cars! The hot hatches of today owe their existence to them! The other thing is this was a time you could actually go to a track day and just do silly things without anyone going your gonna hurt somebody! You take your car to somewhere and something like this to push it and have a play. I always say you don’t buy the Cossie just to cruise around…. 😅
We didn't care in the fkn awesome 90's, our Escort Cosworth was 28K new and we sold it for 12K 10 years later with 19K miles on it, 50K plus today, shit happens.
Notice there’s no funny money cars going around the track. You didn’t have to have a well paid job or a good credit score to afford most of these cars (Bentley excluded lol). Very different era now.
There wasn’t PCP deals back then. Nowadays everybody is ticked up to the eyeballs in the latest cars! You drove what you could afford and there was no judgement, better times.
I don't know, the driving standards at Castle Combe "Action" days seem to be similarly low. Fortunately track day companies have identified that those of us who value our cars don't want to share the track with kamikaze drivers in smashed up Rovers.
Thank you for the buzzin 90s memories of great cars, great music, great car meets and great mates!
Wow this is a very rare video of Knockhill........... The sun's out! ☺
Ahh the wonderful 90s
This video captures that time perfectly....
Thanks

Ahh takes me back - but that’s some of the worst track driving I’ve seen in ages lol - everyone is terrible! No one gave a f*ck back then lol

Can smell the old fuel and burning tyres from here, love it!
This is fantastic - I think i might be in the crowd for some of these
Superb mate, that brought back some good memories

Alot of the cars you see here were cheap & available, it was a bit of a golden age for trashing hot hatches... love it!

You wouldn't get away with some of that on a track day now... sadly

Sadly? You need to look up banger racing in the yellow pages, definitely not track days
F##King brilliant like 😂😂😂
