Does anyone have a link to the bit of video that shows the porsches going over the jump then Steff coming over with loads of air.

Phil

 

Don't have it sorry but try a search or PM peeps like John Felstead, Mike Rainbird, floyd, or Matt oz they might have it

Tony

 

Just uploading them. Give me a mo.

 

ring-1

In-car

 

wo ho ho, that was wicked. A UK turbo i guess, sounds very loud though

 

Nutter - can't believe I actually did a passenger lap with Steff around the Ring Must have been mad. I think it is safe to say that Steff's car wasn't entirely standard. He had a BPM Twister exhaust at one point which was the loudest I've ever heard on a Scoob

 

Hello Phil mate how you doing? You off over for easter?

Gary

 

I'm sorry, but where exactly is the "loads of air" bit?

Shaun

 

Who cares that was COOL planning on going to the ring myself this summer

 

i am going too

 

There's another video of Stef at the Ring from side on - not sure if it's the same bit of road- where he does spend a fair bit of time in the air and the impression of the true speed is much better than the usual vids

 

I think this is what you are looking for:

One of the original S'net crew - Stef Reader - used to drive cossykiller (if you have seen cossykiller at the ring mpegs?

 

Do a search for stef and you should find quite a few posts from the "Good Old Days".

 

Bloody Hell !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nearly pooped myself just watching the vid.

That is some serious speed into the righthander.

 

Talking of the good old days! Is Steff still around?

 

LORD OF THE RING

 

Yep he did post a short time ago so still keeps an Eye on the Board. IIRC he said he might come to Bedford.

Thanks all the clip I was looking for is the side on one. and the car is a long way off the ground but people seemed to like the one posted.
Hi Gary Yes me and dad are booked up for easter at Eddies with rest of the gang are you coming over

Phil

 

I have watched the clip a few times in the past. The porkers must have been going exceedingly slowly IMHO. The scoob does look quick though.

Any ideas what sort of times he used to post???

Gary


Phil ........ Not coming over for Easter. Got caught out a couple of times on full weekends at the end of last year. 30 minute waits to get off the track and loads of closures. Instead we are opting for half weekens and HOPEFULLY more track time due to less people and less closures. Thats the theory anyway. Already booked for March April and May ..... trying to go once a month if possible.

If you get bored and you havent already seen it have a look on

you might even make a special guest appearance at the end of the easter video

Lord of the Ring? - that's what Steff would have liked He is certainly committed. The only problem I had with Stef (and I've been a passenger with him a couple of times) is that he didn't know his limits. There were times when I was actually scared - that's not good driving. When I've been out with people I consider to be excellent drivers (like John Felstead for instance) - I've never felt that. When John is driving, the car is under control and it's the person driving the car rather than the other way round - if that makes sense. Good clips though

 

I rememeber a wet trackday at Croft back in early 2001 when I had passenger laps with Stef, Pete Croney and Mike Wood - they all scared me!

Those were the days

Andrew...

 

IIRC he did an 8:12 BTG on his 3rd or 4th ever lap Gary......

 

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm I know JF did that sort of time or quicker on his first weekend there but he was in his monster westy.

Fair play to the man if he did 8.12 on his 3rd or 4th lap but it dont seem very feasible to me. Before you all shout at me im not saying it cant be done but I dont see it. Maybe with JF sat beside him but even then im not convinced.

Gary

 

.........and my name is Walter Rohl.

 

Gary,

Believe me it happened!

I went with the first Scoob convoy to Nurburg back in 99 or 00 (cant remember which year now it was that far back).

Stef was quite a celebrity on here and on track during the early few years of 2000. He must of done at least 30 track days every year.

While he wasn't the best driver in the ever, he made up for it with big ***** and the determination in keeping the loud pedal welded to the floor.

He made a big name for himself for mashing a lot of much more powerful cars around various tracks in his humble UK Scooby.

Regards,
Shaun.

 

Steff has a 8.28 on his video (Cossiekiller at the ring)
How can I get that Evo video up with Sooty and Mick 8.20with 2 slow downs for crashes

Phil

 

As I said im not saying it didn't happen, BUT .... I like to think I go at a fair lick and after around 140 laps I can get the scoob to 8.33. I have been in a well driven 964RS which has done 100's of laps and it does 8.20. I just dont see someone having done 3 / 4 laps doing that time. There is no way you would know when to and not to be nailed. You can't see round bends, 90% are blind so you dont know if you need to brake lift or be flat.

Need to see proof I think ....
