First person perspective of a Lotus 22 during a test before the 2022 Oulton Park Gold Cup. I went on to win both races and the Jim Clark Cup after a Race 2 victory margin of 27.6 seconds in a full capacity grid of 35 cars.
That's proper in car entertainment, fantastic stuff. A Great perspective it's a strange wonder that so few car videos fail to catch the view this has achieved. Cheers
I think what you’re describing is more of a relationship between the steering wheel and the tires, understeer describes the relationship to the direction of the wheels and the direction the car goes.
Well a driver has his own driving style that fits more to him... if he likes a more locked differential to have a less oversteering single seater is up to him. After all behind historic racing is all the magic of immersing yourself in a magic world and thus is not how fast you to that matters, but how mucj it makes you happy to be inside that World. So everyone is free to adapt his car however he likes to be to have that magic
Further to the question about Jim Clark.He was in a Formula Two car at Hockenheim when he was killed. It was thought he had a slow puncture and as the car reached a high speed the tyre came away from the rim and deflated causing him to loose control and hit a tree at the side of the circuit.There is a memorial at the spot.
As classic as it gets! I love the squealing tires. This is exactly why I'm a Lotus guy. I knew there was a good reason, and I wish I had one of these. Super-nice!! -- The essence of open-wheeldom!! p.s.: Just noticed that super-fabulous ultra-quick shifting manual gearbox as well. Will it last?
