This is the short (10 minute) video of Ed Foster's 2010 24 hour race experience. Ed writes for Motor Sport magazine, and this year got behind the wheel of the FinePrint machine to see what all the fuss was about!

This was also shown last month on MotorsTV for a few days.

Excellent film - vastly better than anything we got from Tedious Gear.

Is the club version unedited with 70 hours of swearing they had to take out to make the 10 minutes of broadcastable material!!!!!

Ed Foster put that together from some rather unpromising footage taken by his 16 year old sidekick, there on work experience. I think he edited it very well.  And, Bully, as quite a lot was shot in our garage, there was obviously no need to edit out any colourful language.

What we found very alarming to see was the amazing shimmy on the n/s front wheel as it exited Russell. Just as bad over the bumps as on the flat. Bit of work needed. I actually never noticed it when I was driving, probably because I was never going fast enough.

Just watched it; the snail was still there at the end of the race.
