Yep that Caterham CR500 was putting it to the SR4 and it is a street legal Caterham by the license plate on it where the SR4 is track only.

Neat Video for sure.

Well I dont know if he was putting it to him. He was doing alot of blocking. When the SR4 can drive completely off the line and keep getting his nose in then he is the faster car it was just a matter of time. The Caterham was moving along pretty good and he obviously is a believer in rubbing is racing. Pretty good showing with a street legal car against a pure race car.

Yep I have to agree with you on that but it is a street car and if you listen to the very end of the clip I think it was a lady driving the CR500 but I am not sure about that. Either way blocking is racing as I have been on both ends of the stick and when you do get by it is all that much better especially when you win but that is just my belief.:cooldude:

Julian Sage (who is male) is a pretty well known Caterham driver in the UK. Very fast, but as that video shows...very aggressive. The car is not a standard R500, and I doubt it's much of a street car.

Me and Julian wouldn't get along. He must watch NASCAR and have flashbacks while racing his R500.

Hehe. The Cat pilot was pretty nasty. The blocking messes up the Aero of the Radical or whatever it was.

I have to agree with WestTex.... I think I would have done the same thing to him that he did to the first car at the beginning of the race. Hats off to the driver of the radical

for having patience and setting it up properly. My kind of racer

I personally fine the lines the cat driver chose to a bit on the atrocious side. The car would exited so much better

if he would not have kinked the car in all most every corner. you can be fast for a few laps that way till you beat the tires all to hell.

The Cat definitely used all of the track:). Video shows the advantage of the inside line.

 

A Radical shd kill a Caterham, even a high end one. Where was the track? Very small (40-44 second laps) and very tight.
