Cool vid! Nice chilled soundtrack helping to feel unstressed.

Legibility of the lettering would benefit by just a fraction more spacing between letters. Try it with different letter spacings and you'll probably agree.

You could help people further by adding what gear you are using and how it can lessen wheelspin.

I'm offering constructive ideas for your consideration rather than criticising  :happy2: [and you invited me too and there's no point in not being honest]

The sound of the Derv would of been a good enough backing track  :ashamed:

cheers for that robin, yep i left the kerning of the wording on at -75 by accident. I normally redo my logo manually and i had left it set at -75.

Cheers mate
