Last August Goodyear threw me the keys to one of their BMW Competition cars and let me spank it around the Brands Hatch GP Circuit all day on their new "Supersport" high performance road tyre. My last few laps (in video) were spent with my instructor Ash learning the lines around Brands.
Please stay safe everyone #stayathome
Thanks for watching as always, see you at at the next video!

Just shows how much a pro race driver or trackday instructor have great sense of the balance of cars, grip, weight transfer & overall physics of it. And all through their bottom, hands & guts. Great video thank you.
Great videos Joe, can't wait for more track days. Take care cheers.
Im listening to this video again for the tips on driving. Thankyou again another epic video. Grateful thanks.
Great coaching
Cheers mate! :)
Nice one Joe, nearly at that 100k mark too! ✌️
Great video, even better instructor!
Cheers mate!
100% getting a Beemer after watching Joe's videos keep up the good content mate.
Dean watch out, it won’t be your last. Got 3 because of him!
@@CJSVlogs on 2nd beemer now because of Joe 😂
3rd one here Dean! You won't regret it.
Highly recommend it! #brothersinMs
Bimmer are cars, everything else like Beemer is a BMW motorbike
Good to see you back, doing what you do best 👍
Literally just rewatched the other video where you were using this car to test the Goodyear F1 Supersports, epic timing on the upload Joe 🔥
Mega fella, I’ve done pretty much every circuit in the UK but believe it or not I’ve done at least 10-12 track days and races around the Indy track layout but never been around the gp loop! Gutted as so exclusive and can’t wait to finally one day get to go on it 👍 Great vid bud
Looked like a quality day and outing Joe. Fingers crossed for track days soon 🤞
Nice video Joe. Brands is an awesome circuit to drive and to watch racing at. I lived about 45 minutes away before I moved to Australia!
Wow mate looks awesome fun 😎👏
Very nice video thumbs up, by the way is this a spider net on top right corner :))
Nice to see you back out there
Great vid Joe, nice driving.
Great video thanks! The other cars you pass on the track look so tiny like a video game 🤣
Who the hell gave this video a thumbs down? FFs. Great video Joe. Great to hear the tips, amazing!
Nice one fella. Joe is back. Well , nearly. 😉
Another great video Joe
jesus this guy can wheel, i remember the vid from back in the day chuckin the 140i through some crazy goat path, that was bonkers too
Nice driving Joe 🤘
You already have the lead foot and know how to handle the M2 under extreme conditions, now with a bit more track knowledge
Enjoyed your driving 👍 Been hunting for my M2 thus find your great vids. Thinking low mileage 2018 M2 or M2 Comp thru 2020 - I know you have had both.
Great vid 👌your man seems sound out 👍
Such a good video Joe. Looking forward to a bit more content with the slightly increased freedom.
Great driving Joe I’ve had two track days cancelled that I had booked but hopefully won’t be long.
That looked great fun, wouldn't mind a go myself ! 😊
That instructor makes me proud to be Aussie
Huge compliment, thanks Jack! Proud to be an Aussie over here in the UK! We're not a bad bunch ;)
Joe, thank you for the video. Quick one for you. I have an M135i with adaptive suspension and I would like it a bit more flat on the corners. Springs only would help enough or also anti roll bar...? Or simply better to spend on M2? Thank you :)
A stiffer anti-roll bar will help keep the car level when turning, even with the adaptive suspension, as it takes away a bit of the chassis flex and transfers the load. It would only need a minor change in stiffness to make a difference you'd feel.
I love how this is at 30k views but the one you said is at 15k is still at 15k
Haha I know! So much effort went into the first video, this one took an hour to edit 😂🤷🏻♂️
@@JoeAchilles1 I made sure to watch and gave it a thumbs up! : )
Do you ever just waft in the 7? Night runs would be pretty sick!
One of the questions could be: did you use what you learned with Ash during the GT Sport races and does it work?
Fantastic video and great instructor. You deserve way more subscribers than you have joe.
Cheers mate! :)
Hi Joe, only found your videos recently but find them great watching and really informative, keep it up! Been in a UA-cam "M2 hole" all afternoon as I'm looking at buying either a low mileage 2nd hand M3 Comp or a similar M2 Comp in a few months... You may have already swayed me toward the M2 but what would your verdict be on the M3 comp Vs M2 comp in 2020?
The M2 Competition is regarded as the best modern M car. The M3 is older and get more space, but the car is bigger. You get a leather dashboard, head up display and adaptive suspension, but dynamically the M2 is superior.
Such a capable car, looking forward to track days in the Achilles M2 C
Enjoyed that Joe, thanks
Ash is a great instructor! Hard to understand with that funny accent though :DD!!
😂😂😂😉
Subtitles coming shortly ;)
@@ashmillermotorsport 🤣 swoit maaayte
I have the same helmet albeit hammered from motorcycle use, go the Doctor!!
M2 content very appreciated 👍
Has that car the M sport brakes? Can you tell us something about it, the difference with stock the brakes on track? Thx
From another video, this car has the standard blue brakes. They are track capable (they will discolor with track heat) and would definitely have track pads at a minimum.
Doing your Buckingham Tesco's shop in the intro? ;)
Elliot Cartlidge I noticed that, I was like what’s he doing around my area 🤣
Enjoyed that Joe. And nice Vale 46 helmet 😉
I found that fuel starvation happened the first time on the uphill section of the ring in my M140, bit of a clincher haha
Cheers, mate! 😎
Need to Px our M140i for a X3 2.0d M Sport. You’ve just reminded me!
What’s the actual best time to trade a PCP deal? Months into the agreement?
We’ve just purchased a Lotus Elise S (2015) so don’t need another performance hatch. The Mrs will be using the car more and wants a SUV
I’m not loosing money on the 1 series it’s mint, low miles and a cracking car
If you speak with the guys at BMW finance, they will advise you of the most appropriate time to look at changing your car (approximately 36/37 months on a 48 month contract). You will have had to have paid 50% of the finance off. They will also give you the negative figure, that you will need to buy yourself out of the agreement; should you wish. Your BMW dealership would normally contact you direct, when they feel it is the right time to change your vehicle.
Hope the above helps
Remember, concentrate on what your doing. You know what happens if you don't....GTS. 😂👍🏻
6:26 you’re welcome.
Practicing those lines in GT Sport..
Off to Brands to practice those tips on rfactor2, thanks Joe :-)
