Skoda Fabia on track - Video!

Some footage from a fellow derv owners club of me giving my Skoda Fabia a good thrashing on track! Enjoyed the day immensely and not much got past me (that blue cossie was FAST!) :D

A good days testing considering my car is nowhere near running it's final setup - NOwhere near! ;)

Great vid! Watched it twice your car appears to handle very well and was giving most a run for thier money. Thanks for sharing.

Not much extra cack sticks to the rear right wheel - seems soot doesn't stick as much as brake dust but I am finding I am cleaning my wheels much more often! :( White shows up EVERYthing! :eek:

I didn't have a camera setup inside. I am looking into one of these "keyring" cameras that are really small and record direct on to an SD card.

Not sure on stats but was doing probably less than 20mph around there but up to 50mph in about 2.5 seconds in 2nd gear, then up to 70 in 3rd before taking the left hander out of shot slightly (off camber downhill so dodgy in my heavy fwd diesel) in 4th gear then up to 110 down the straight.

Here's some in car footage from a different car on the day to get an idea of the track :)
