That lap was fast, insanely good and unbelievable! What a car! The R500 is undeniably good, but, when it comes to caterham's, I'd still choose a normal caterham because you can have just as much fun in a normal caterham and also, it would be a little bit more usable. My favourite model of Caterham is the 160.

Very well done sir, looks very neat and tidy, also pretty damp fast, most of the cars I work with will lap Cadwell in around 1:50, amazing just how far the 7s have come in performance since the S2 lotus in the late 60s. Only thing I noticed was the amount of understeer around the place, I reckon there's nearly another second there if you can sort out that understeer, get the car sliding in the tight stuff and get it balanced through the faster corners.

Does anyone know if cadwell park was in any games back in the ps1/2 era? I was looking at track days and it feels familiar despite never doing one in person, just curious if I'd been round it in any games as a kid

Think the issue simply is that you're diving for sharks. Therefore, when you see one, you don't let it know you're not to be messed with, instead you move away, makes sounds, and let it choose who to get near to. Sharks, especially ones such as this, need to know you're serious, i.e. carry a stick, and prod it quite hard if it gets too close, nothing with teeth like that should be getting in your personal zone, or it can simply decide what part to remove, and there's nothing you can do about it, and you may die.

So, I am still somewhat of a new diver. Got like around twenty dives under my belt. Would I be ready to dive with sharks? Are people not afraid of seeing their first one? I know they get really bad press but i can not imagine being surrounded by them.
@DanielFrench
@DanielFrench 4 месяца назад
In short, yes! you are ready! Choose a reputable guide / company, that don't feed them - and you'll have an awesome experience. The first shark you see will be an unforgettable experience (I definitely remember the first shark I saw) and will certainly get the heart pumping, but there's really nothing to worry about - they are more scared of you, than you are of them (great whites aside!).

Gorgeous colours, and also very sharp corners. I use a similar rig, but I prefer to use the WWL-1B because I like to have the flexibility of Changing focal length underwater. Instead of the Keldans, I use Kraken Hydra 15000’s because I am poor, and actually cannot see the difference in the quality.
@DanielFrench
@DanielFrench Год назад
Cheers Rod - I know what you mean with regards to the WWL and having the versatility underwater…. Having spent q fair amount of time with the WACP-1 I’ve found I can almost achieve everything I want, without needing to change (macro aside)… My latest video where I removed a lot of the narrative 🤦🏼‍♂️🙈 shows some more of the range achievable with WACP-1, wide to close ups. I think the fundamental is enjoying the process of discovery, albeit through the diving itself or videoing, or a combination of both. Best wishes.
