Yeti 2.5tfsi The Twins. (And Yeti RS)

[Toxicvrs]

It's un recorded on HPI so will sell for far more than the £15-18k they usually do. :(

There is a TTS on there too :(

Yes, also HPI unrecorded with minimal damage.

Ohh :( could always create an Octavia 1.8Tsi to sell and a Yeti 2.0tfsi

I've spoken to -someone- about an engine swap in the new year.

I don't have to supply the engine either.

Can't say too much but looking positive the Yeti will be 400bhp when on track next year.

Minimal weight increase.

How about a new project?

What, a helicopter powered Yeti???

 

Hmmm I like it!

Yeti at Castle Combe.

With the Briskoda gang.

I enjoyed the mobile blocking unit when I followed that Fiesta. Was behind for ages... then finally got by and pulled away. You see me right up the back of it in this clip.

I clocked the speedo going up Avon Rise, nudging 125mph Was truly epic

 

Richard, thanks again (did I say thanks yet?) Was an awesome ride :yes:

Those smaller tyres work wonders, make it look even quicker than it is!

Who was in that Octy by the end of the clip? Either you slowed down and Octy was able to out-accelerate Yeti vRS on the straight?

chequered flag had been waved

As Lee said.

For reference, when the chequered flag is waved it becomes a cool down lap before returning to the pits.

They don't like you overtaking on a cool down lap.

Also yes, it was quick.

Most of my "catching up" was in the corners.

1,400kg + 2 people and naff aerodynamics are not the best combination on fast straights.

I'll go on a diet if it helps

In a heavy car it doesn't make much difference.

Our kerb weight was definitely over 1,500kg though!

chuck me out and you'll drop 95Kg

[BossFox]

OK, I'll revise that to a kerb weight of over 1,550kg.

[vrsmark]

That was me in the octy at the end ;-)

I got out of the pits last,about 15 seconds after the 2nd row had left because the Marshall wanted to check my helmet strap :-(

No excuses though to be fair I need to improve the "lines"!

[Jabozuma]

vrsmark, that Octy of yours shifts like nobody's business! 

What brakes do you run?

[Yeti_Man]

That was an interesting watch - shame it cut off when it did though - the black Octy at the end seemed to be the only one with a proper turn of speed to it. The Yeti looks very nicely balanced throughout - suspension and brakes seem to be spot on.
