- In this video we drive @Jimmy_Broadbent's Time Attack MX5! This car has a super nice naturally aspirated 1.8L engine and plenty of chassis mods to suit. The only problem was fitting inside...

Was a pleasure to have you in the car bro.
The wets were super old so tbh are probably equivalent to a normal road tyre at this point lol.
We definitely need to find a race we can do together next year 😏
do it! need pit crew?
Nice car and you two are awesome drivers, saw the post on FB first and now the video here is great.
If I have to compare with F1, I think wet tyres should have benefits on really wet track to get the water off. As soon as you have a dry line (semi) slicks probably would be better.
Get it done boys. 🎉
Look at Jimmy, attracting all the stars. First the Stig, now DannyDC2..
Has to be only Chris Harris and God himself left on the 2024 colab list 😂
Happy new year bro
Didn't see this collab coming but can't wait for more. The most prominent British racing youtuber and Jimmy Broadbent, what a duo 😂
The Fella doing your pedals was really good.
The sound of that engine is mega!
Good to see you chatting to Jimmy. He was super friendly when I met him at Snetterton, showed me around Minty (even after it had blown the SR) which he didn't have to do at all.
Is 2024 going to be the year of collabs and travelling? Misha + Jimmy + SuperGT combo is missing a certain very "prominent" UK ckub racing UA-camr!
he's too nice to people, needs to rein it in a bit for the rest of us
@@dannyDC2please tell me you actually had more of a conversation with Jimmy than 3 sentences in the next episode??
@@garysheehan4077 i'm there to drive the cars
but yes slightly more, maybe 4
Lovely car ! Amazing editing as always.
Been waiting for this one! Mega video as always
The MX-5 has a nice-sounding four cylinder (what an oxymoron) as standard but this thing sounds mega. Would love to do an NA build on my 91 Eunos. Nice driving Dan.
THANK GOD!!! the colab we all needed...
Danny and Jimmy 👌👌
Fantastic video Dan, Love the commentary it gives such a insight into the experience,
Looking forward to the Supra video 👍
That sounds awesome
I had a Mk1 Mx5 about 10 years ago, like you I struggled to fit being a bit on the tall side
Little car looks a blast to drive. If you're at Donnington on 31st January see me in my R35-GTR and have a go if you like
Great video Dan 👌 Looking forward to the supra one 👍
So when the Praga video 👀
You know, the Praga R1 is an absolute marvel in the world of racing machines. The sleek lines, the raw power, the sheer artistry - it's undeniably a masterpiece on wheels. I can't help but admire the engineering brilliance behind it, and I can imagine the incredible rush of driving such a precision instrument. However, when I envision myself in the driver's seat, there's a part of me that hesitates. It's not that I don't appreciate the allure; it's just that I've come to realise that my driving style and the Praga's aggressive spirit might not be the perfect match. It's like having immense respect for a work of art in a gallery but knowing deep down that it wouldn't quite fit in your living room. So, while I'll continue to admire the Praga R1 from afar, I'll leave the exhilarating drives to those who can truly appreciate and unleash its full potential.
@@dannyDC2 I'm sure you'd get on top of driving it pretty quickly given the chance. You seem to drive everything else you sit in pretty nicely 👌
@@dannyDC2I see chatgpt is getting it’s use in
@@dannyDC2 I've written Essays worse than that
@@dannyDC2 new copypasta?
Hell yeah, the collab we always needed. Jimmy vs Danny 1v1 needs to happen 💪
Great ! Only driven a Mx5 years ago when they were first new .. looking forward to the Supra !
The way the footcam has been edited into the passenger footwell is so aesthetically pleasing.
INSTANT LIKE! Keep it going Danny, don't know me but I'm proud you 😊
Bodies over turbo any day. Love hearing that sing!
Maybe a dished wheel would help with the knees hitting it?
Nice to see you feature Jimmy's cars, been nice to watch him progress from shed dweller to successful race car driver
It would take a few things but it should be possible to get comfy. I had the same struggles with my MR2
@@dannyDC2 maybe you'll get a shot at minty lol. That seems pretty rowdy.
I'd let you have a go in my starlet turbo but you'd hate it lol, would at least need to fix the brake shake
@@DubSe7en what do you mean i never complain when driving other people's cars
🔥🔥itb 😎👌🏻
I can vouch the weather was extremely difficult on this day 😅 I was also running wets and others were actually fairing better on a normal ps4s tyre which was odd. Just couldn’t seem to get my actual wets to work
maybe it was too cold for them
Nice little pocket rocket. Would be awesome if you could get your hands on a VX220 ;)
What a sweet little weapon and sounded the nuts! Supra next, that’ll be a fkin handful 😂😂
Dream spec mx5!
Ridge Racer Type 4 music ♥️♥️
This video shows exactly why you dont need 400-500bhp to enjoy a car. Ive got a 330ci 250bhp, more than fast enough, but all the 20 something's that havent raced a thing in their life think they need big power. Madness
Tall guy's problems :P, i have exactly the same knee/steeringwheel issue on my 944.
13.36 that's the one that caught me out a couple of years ago when you nearly ended up Tboning me . . .
good times
PRAGA COLLAB WHEN HURDURR
old tyres ?
new team?
Gonna let Jimmy have a go in the EG in return?
Yeah cmon bro
Sounds a bit saggy on the engine mounts
Sounds a bit like the mr2
H O N K
So Praga when?! 😁
😜👍🇦🇺
Bleached hair and a black beard, always a good look 😂
wym
I wonder if those wets were actually overheating on their surface, as much of the track was pretty dry.
Being an owner of a track prepped 330bhp NA MX-5, im surprised how little grip you had with so little torque.
Oh and there's a reason I have a 290mm steering wheel on mine 😂 Never had an issue with the pedal spacing personally.
There’s a difference between losing grip and not having grip. They felt like the latter. Track wasn’t dry
Hope The Stig asked for your autograph...
I saw The Stig at a supermarket near Donington Park. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.
@@dannyDC2 i saw him in all sorts of videos, professional and casual and i would not have imagined him to be like that. Maybe he was completely drunk? Sounds absolutely bizzare.
@@dannyDC2wtf just happened
@@fartloudYTI think he’s having a laurf
Ben does give off an air that he really enjoys his own farts (no pun intended), so it wouldn't surprise me.
Non-Applicable MX-5?
Non-applicable comment.
The snap oversteer on these cars in the real world is worrying to say the least. 😅
No such thing
Moist!
