    Yikes! The audio during slow-mo replay is what I imagine he was thinking. Glad he walked away.

    Seems like he might want shorter shift a bit next time.. keep the rear in check!
    Life's too short to drive bad cars.

    That's too big a chance to take at not getting a fast time. These are won by 1/100ths of seconds. You dont push to the limit then you never have a chance to win. BIG downside is when do it 101% it CAN be expensive nad painful
    Short shifting does make sure the back wont break as easily but it also means acceleration will be slower. It's why I love hillclimbs. You get one chance and every corner has to be flat out to win. Circuit racing seems easy and tame by comparison as there's always the next lap to make up the time

    ^^^ Agreed with that... no guts, no glory.

    Nice short film of the 2012 Winter Historics at Sydney.

    Was doing some testing at local clubs hillclimb and mounted the bullet cam as low as I could safely manage. I think it made for some footage that captures some of the buzz of a fast hillclimb.

    That was pretty damn cool.

    Are there any events like this in Angus?

    Forresburn isn't that far away - about an hour's drive.
    North is Fintray hillclimb - VERY short but challenging and scary in the trees.

    [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=29IKfQNpjEc"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=29IKfQNpjEc[/ame]

    THen there are sprint tracks which are fast but dont have the challenge of the hills.

    See The Scottish Sprint and Hillclimb Championship 2012

    Mate now rents Caterhams in the Highlands, so you have to give yourself a couple of days to drive up into the real highlands where the roads are awesome
