Just got some onboard footage stuck up on youtube

At Kirkistown, this March, first race of the year. It's on board with Jimmy Dougan and Brian McGoldrick (both 'blade engined locosts). Jimmy was black flagged (they thought the water dripping from his car was oil!) and Brian retired with a bust radiator!
We don't do gravel traps - we have water hazards!!

The race was won by Ricky Morgan in his Westfield Megablade.
(I believe I'm right in saying Procomp set up his car - cracking job - it goes like stink!! )

All the best

Was that Mark getting hit up the ar$e towards the end?

I'm not sure that there is much to say about the water!

No, that was Colin Reid's Stryker being collected by Brian towards the end. Colin finished the race, rear undertray damaged, but otherwise fine. Brian bust his nosecone and radiator but managed to make it out for race 2. I'm hoping to have a video from race 2 up in a few days.

Both Brian & Jimmy get a bath

Alright Mark,
Yep, I have but there's a lot of editing and sorting to be done to it.

I'm awaiting onboard footage from Colin from both the race and the sprint too.

Do you have any onboard footage from the sprint BTW?

loving the water features though.
