Why wasnt this guy kicked off the track? Deserves a beating from the other drivers. Shocking

Having seen this posted on SELOC a while back the feedback was that this was fairly typical for the events. Basically you went on at your own risk! The cones were to stop people using other cars to get round the corners


woodster - 23/11/06 at 10:17 AM

WTF as said before what a winker ...... what engines in that van


Peteff - 23/11/06 at 10:23 AM

Looked like a Citroen C15 in Dynorod Orange to me


mackei23b - 23/11/06 at 12:07 PM

What an idiot!

As the track is near me I've emailed them the link and asked them to comment.

I was thinking about taking the Indy there, but not if there are Tw@ts like that about.

Cheers

Fairly standard on a knockhill chavday/trackday. My mate got his trackday prepared fiesta wrecked during the warm up lap behind the pacecar
The fuel pump cut ou and as he made his way to the track side chavMcfuckingtwat in his £30 wednesday carmart sri is on the grass flatout overtaking (warmu= up lap remember) and runs right up his arse. Even with a rollcage in the rear drivers wheel was in the back of the drivers seat. He'd a week of work as well.
Also as it was my first trackday and it was tthe weekend after a guy was killed in the bikes I was gobsmacked at the standard of cars/muppets allowed to be on the track
Rant over and as said what a bunch of wan**ers. Motorclub days only for us now at least there's respect on them days and no need for the cones


MikeRJ - 23/11/06 at 12:25 PM

I've seen a few videos of this kind of disgusting behaviour at Knockhill, though I'm sure you get muppets elsewhere.

These idiots don't belong in a banger race let alone on a track day, and I'm suprised the organisiers/track owners don't stamp down hard on this kind of thing.


mackei23b - 23/11/06 at 12:40 PM

Yes looks like motorclub days could be the way forwards.

Unfortunately I was about 50 yards aways and watched the biker loose his life at Knockhhill after he was high-sided coming out the hairpin and then hit full on by another bike.

I have to say that there did seem to be some confusion from the marshals as bikes continued to run at race speed for some time before the individual was unfortunately hit.

So, not convinced by Knockhill, what are others experiences?

That's why I don't go to open track days

The NE7ER's have organised two brilliant 7's only days this year. 25 cars, all about evenly matched, no wankers, just great fun. It's the way forward.

skydivepaul - 23/11/06 at 12:59 PM

what a feckin tw@t. That sort of driving he should have kicked off the track after 1/2 a lap as what it amounts to is unlicensed racing.
If i had someone driving like that near me on a track day i would find him in the pits and kick his head in


zxrlocost - 23/11/06 at 01:02 PM

hes probably well popular in the chav scene


DIY Si - 23/11/06 at 01:03 PM

Are the marshals really that bad there that they didn't spot him being a right plank? Couldn't have been too hard to spot the wa**er in the chavalier in someone else's boot?!


mangogrooveworkshop - 23/11/06 at 01:06 PM

THAT IS THE HOT HATCHES DAYS>>>>>>NEVER EVER TAKE YOUR SEVEN TO THESE> ALWAYS GO TO THE HOT MARQUES NIGHTS WITH THE FERRARIS AND PORKERS> NO GRIEF AND ALL THE SEVENS RUN SAFELY

QUE ZILSPEED>>>>

You will lose your car and more.


chockymonster - 25/11/06 at 12:58 AM

Every video I've seen of "Team Gimps" just highlights their name.
A bunch of idiotic morons that think a track day is a race.

I'm assuming that these are the days that the police will be giving the local chavs free access to when they are caught speeding.


Stu16v - 25/11/06 at 05:28 PM

However the only days where behaviour like this is "accepted" is at an event called "hot hatch day" these are about once a month and the level of cars and driving varies tremendously.



Sorry, but that is no excuse. It shouldn't be tolerated at all!


jono_misfit - 26/11/06 at 10:23 PM

The sad fact is the chumps that go to knockhill on hot hatch days drive just like that on the way home. Ive seen a huge number of accidents on the way back home after them. Some of which have been cars ive seen on the track

I used to go quite a lot but their are a lot of muppets that go. The standard of driving by many is apauling. They seem to think that when you get on track you can drive exactly how you want including "persuading" other cars who are too slow round the corners but faster on the straights.

If your interested in going on track at knockhill go to a hot marque or join Dumfermline car club who seem to have a track night about once every couple of months.
