Caterham chases Ferrari 360 challenge racecar

[wwilliam7]

LOL from being the last car it beated all cars to being firs, look the much faster acceralatincompare to the others racecars while the caterham beat em

[adamramoth]

The R500 moto was developed by Raceline, not Caterham! Anyone can buy the engine and from many tuners.

[CNSZU]

the dude certainly knows how to drive a car.

[Boxer365BB]

Very brave to be doing that at Donington in the wet.

[levizinhodonacimento]

so race dry!!! xD

[smudgey6120]

is this a r500?

[jackal2513]

no, it was the first ever duratec powered Caterham using the same engine as the new R500 seen on top gear recently, but at a lower state of tune at just ~215bhp. Funny you should ask though as it was developed and built by the very same person who has developed the new R500 engine at caterham cars.

[smudgey6120]

thnks..i'm only asking because i had my first ever drive in a caterham at brands last saturday during villagers day..never been in one before and fell in love..it was not on the track but the slalom track near the rally stage..not a 500 but wow love the power slides...ok i'm now hooked....loved the atom ..but now would prefer a caterham....thnks for the info

I like that camera angle, makes me feel like Im standing on the rear bumper holding on to the roll cage.

[KuostA]

Exactly why did you "have to shortshift" down the strait?

[cw205mi16]

Donington have a trackside noise meter on the start/finish straight. It's also best to stay over to the right hand side when passing if you have a very loud car.

[cookieboy56]

love it to bits!

[atreewithnolife]

u guys need to ride superbikes!!!

[sickipedia]

u need to ride an ariel atom, beats a motorbike and is more practial

[Funkystumpy247]

HAHA as much as I like the Atom I would hardly say its practical!... :P

[hirirsi]

whats up with the mini cooper man?

[SezFromMalygos]

its jackal, visit his page, hes awesome.. he also crashed his car tho :-(

[Kheops63]

This guy doesn't hit the gas as hard as he could!!It seems he's just have a sweet ballad....

[jackal2513]

early development, car had all sorts of handling problems with mis matched springs, wrong gearbox, short shifting so that i wasnt chucked off for noise and it was wet/greasy... see my profile for another video thats over 10 secs quicker per lap at ~1.17/~1.18

[lvldsnr]

is this donington?

[WolfBlade65]

Yes, and he said as much in the details box

[drzm]

wtf that mini held you up a bit lol

[madjimms]

whats that poor little Mini Cooper doing on the big boy track?

[couragio235]

AWESOME!!!

[paintrain007]

sick driving

[rossco1520]

What sort of hp is the caterham?

[mattimatteo]

well.. the driver could push a lot harder... very smooth driving...

[delboy83uk]

Haha that car rocks, who needs v8's when your car weighs the same as a fart

[jackal2513]

Yes, its not a csr, rather, a custom built car based on a standard series 3 chassis. It was built with a 2.0 duratec engine some years before caterham adopted it.... the first duratec seven built in the UK to my knowledge.

[charlie911GT]

Hi Jackal I am thinking of building up a & running a duratec 2Ltr. Do you know much about the spec's on the motor, i.e. dry sump? Carbon fibre impregnated block?

[rocketpunch12210]

What kinda engine package does thise Caterham has!? That car doesn't look like the CSR chassis

[PorkysThree]

I love Donnington!

[dodgegtx10]

7 rules

[OddballRS]

Nice video but the guy is the Fezza was on 'L' plates

[Huib1992]

NIce driving man. You should go to the Nordschleife. I've been there last summer as a passenger in my father's porsche 993 carrera 4 cabriolet. We were even overtaken by shitty vw golf's, but that's just because my father has no driving skills at all, and he was incredibly afraid to crash his car on the Nordschleife.

[cipher656]

lol mini get out the way!

[jackal2513]

proper 360 GT challenge car. 1100kg, 445 bhp etc.. An awful lot quicker than a road going Stradale.

[expthewarmth17]

Wow!! Awesome video. Was that a 360 Challenge Stradale or an actual 360 racer? I cant tell from the footage.
