Well it's been a long time since I took the first production Furore F1 out on track, that was back in 2009 just b4 driving the car to Le Mans & was a very basic 4AGE engined car. For all sorts of reasons & pressures I simply don't seem to have found the time to get any of the ZZR1400 engined cars out on track - until now.

So finally some onboard video of the car in action last w/e, I should have some further video coming from the trackside, but waiting on someone else to see that myself. Hope you find it worth a look - make sure you have the volume up!!!

There are 2 videos on my Facebook page (while you're there please "like" us - get me over the 100 likes!), make sure you look a little further down the page for a pic of how it looked when we unloaded the car in the morning! It was a tad chilly!

The videos aren't monetised so no annoying adverts

liked!

That sounds fantastic

also liked, and thanks for the info on battery.

A while back you had some shots of a revised curvier rear body work did you get that finished? and are there photos?

Like many things that just sort of stalled last year, but Alan at AGM Sportscars is working on it at the moment & I hope to have some pics available soon.

Re the batteries, all the Li battery prices have come down a bit recently, typically by around 5%, so they are a bit cheaper than they were & unlikely to change again in the very near future at least.

Where is that filmed?

It's a small airfield circuit, I'm not aware of it being open for public trackdays - it would be too small for many cars on track at once - it's near Bourne End, Hemel Hempsted operated by VIP Supercar Experience if anyone fancies a run in Lambo Gallardo, Audi R8 & shortly a Ferrari (don't know which one) I can probably get you a discount - it's usually around £130 for 3 laps in each of the above (9 laps in 3 different cars)

Would be interested if they wanted to run a bring your own car trackday! On the doorstep...

As i'm around the corner from you in Thorpe Bay, I really am going have to come around and have a look.

FM, that sounds well!

Hi Russ,
Can't believe you have not tracked it before! I just love the through the suspension shots. Hope this generates interest for you.
Best wishes

Nice!

The airfield (bovingdon) is just up the road from me, had a drifting day there last week!

It's too small really for track days , which is a shame , but it would be good as a test track or for sprints.

Ash.

There is a possibility the circuit may be extended, but no idea how certain that is, or when.

For me it was a great shakedown of the car, whilst still setup in full road trim (4.5" ground clearance!) & a chance for a few people to sample the passenger experience.

I've now added a 3rd & last video, visibly quicker on a dry track & knowing the circuit a bit better!

You're very welcome anytime we can make convenient & I'll promise not to try & sell you a kit or a car! Just give me a ring beforehand to make sure I'm around 07905 879407
Would happily take you out for a run when the weather is better, but I live down an unmade road & really don't like taking the car out much this time of year as it gets filthy if road is wet - if we get a dry spell however ..................
As you're local, you ought to come along to the Essex Kitcar club (essexkitcarclub.com) meets up at Chelmsford once a month, you'd be welcomed whether you're driving/building/or just dreaming about a car.

"Wil take you up on that. Building a Dax Rush at the moment so not buying! When is the next Chelmsford meeting?"

See www.essexkitcarclub.com we meet last Sunday of the month, so you've just missed this months, next one would normally be 31st Mar, but a few of us are going down to Brands for the Touring Cars, so I think it may be pulled forward a week to 24th, bjut info will be on the website in due course.

Re, the idea of "run your own kitcar" at the circuit, as I say it's not big enough for loads of cars on track at any one time, but if you're happy to do 3 lap sessions, then 3 laps to cool off for the Supercar runs & possibly a further 3 laps for hot passenger laps in either the Furore, Ktm Xbow or Atom & then a further 3 laps then it's a possibility I could suggest to the organisers - it would have to be limited to very small no.'s tho'
