We don't mind people having fun doing something we wouldn't so long as they are aware of the trade-offs 😎 Note that it is also just around these tuning methods with a focus on shifts. I'm sure what OEMs are doing for those 'burble' tunes is quite a bit safer. You'd hope so anyway - Taz.
@@hpa101 Speaking of burble, please could you guys do a video (or a Short) on precisely how ignition and fuel are cut/retarded for soft rpm limiters, popcorn maps, and what I call "DSG farts"? 😅 Regarding soft rpm limiters, I've never been able to find deeper explanation beyond a very vague "the ECU cuts selected ignition events." And on popcorn maps: as much as I hate them, I'd still be very interested to know exactly how ign/fuel are cut to get those popcorn sounds, and also those fart noises VAG cars make between semi-auto gear changes!
This might help you in the meantime regarding the difference between 'soft' and 'hard' cuts/limiters. The longer webinar gets right into things, the next link is just a quick answer off the cuff from a live lesson. www.hpacademy.com/previous-webinars/171-configuring-the-ultimate-rpm-limiter/? www.hpacademy.com/q-and-a/what-is-a-soft-and-hard-rev-limiter-how-do-they-work/ If you don't have Gold Membership I 'think' that first one might be here on YT somewhere as well 😉 - Taz.
First time seeing this channel. This interviewer is one of the best I’ve seen. Knows how to explain to the audience exactly what’s going on and engages with the expert perfectly! Subbed! 🤘🏻
Cheers for the support team! Glad you found us @UXXV and hope you enjoy working your way through some more interview topics. Scott Hilzinger in particular here is in a few and is a very well spoken and knowledgable chap which makes it easy 😎 - Taz. PS: Here's his podcast episode too: www.hpacademy.com/blog/011-do-you-have-to-break-things-to-become-a-good-tuner-podcast/? www.hpacademy.com/podcasts/
Always a pleasure chatting to him. Did you check out his podcast episode from a while back too? - Taz. www.hpacademy.com/blog/011-do-you-have-to-break-things-to-become-a-good-tuner-podcast/
A clean, smooth calibration is a thing of beauty in and of itself. Watch ANY well-setup racecar's onboards. The biggest thing you'll notice is just how SMOOTH the shifts are - especially on part-throttle upshifts and off-throttle downshifts.
I always knew pops-n-bangs were bad, but i never thought about the fact that it literally forces percussion into the valve - and so into the camshaft. Great explanation. I wonder what kind of difference it makes depending on if its a pushrod/rocker arm, roller cam hydraulic lifter, or solid lifter setup?
So glad my tuner is heavily involved in motorsport and hates pops and bangs as much as i do! Scotty is a walking encyclopedia when it comes to tuning!!
Curious if different weather climates will affect the flat foot shifting , introduction of snow, or rain conditions? Enjoyed this episode of HP Academy. Thank you, Boss Simon
Hailtek did all they could with old technology, but they can do better by designing a transmission w/o lifting your foot by adding parallel gears. Running 2 gears at the same time you can transition w/o letting go of torque to shift.
Is there any advantage to cutting fuel AND spark vs just cutting fuel? Doesn't seem to me like it would make a difference either way but just curious if I'm overlooking something.
I never thought of what pops and bangs are doing to the valve train😮 but it can't be good for your catalytic converter, turbo, and exhaust system either
Pops and Bangs, modern day ricer mod. I remember seeing at a car meet, there was an exhaust competition, this R34 gtr had massive pops and bangs, then he had a knocking sound coming from the valve train. He managed to some how slowly "massage" the knock away with gentle revs. Also had my mate piss out coolant in his evo, just created excessive cylinder pressure and pressurised the crankcase. Needless to say, not great for any engine.. Just stick with burbles and turbo noises.
As far as rev matching on the upshift goes - is that just a matter of sacrificing mechanical sympathy or does the fuel/spark cut drop the RPM enough to match the new ratio?
Why so sloppy? You know the speed of the car and the next gear. Almost all cars have an electronic throttle and the ECU completely controls the engine. You can set the engine RPM exactly for the next gear.
If only we were that organised to actually have a plan on what we film and when we release it 😂 I had completely forgotten about any issues they had. Reply with more detail on what happened beyond the video linked below (if you know anything that is!) noting Quaife also came to the party to rebuild the box. That fact and also how you can see it popped out before a shift means Scotty here is safe I reckon 😂 Ultimately this is a race car doing race car things and sometimes things break 🤘 - Taz. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-O6LFw0K1D24.htmlsi=Qid9RERcYweRMadf www.ferrarichat.com/forum/threads/nice-ride-so-this-may-cause-considerable-offence-stanceworks-308-gtbi-honda-k24-swap.634552/page-25
That Quaife is rebuilding. Wonder why they would do that if it was a simple tuning issue which there is plenty of data from the car to identify if that was the case 😎 It is a race car doing race car things, and no one is infallible, but be careful with the finger-pointing like this even if it's in jest 🤘 - Taz.
It is not to my knowledge that this car has torque sensors in any shaft, that would be relevant piece of information for Quaife. In this case, a car with above average performance, does anyone know what the instantaneous torque is after an instantaneous reintroduction of power? In my opinion they are rebuilding the gearbox because this is one of the best known cars on the internet to use a gearbox from them it was widely reported that it had problems during the race and they have a reputation to uphold. Making mistakes is part of Human nature, and only those who do nothing don't make mistakes, admitting mistakes demonstrates humility, this is how we evolve.
We all have opinions, but laying blame based off nothing but opinion from a few videos on the internet is not always an opinion worth sharing is the point I was trying to make there 🤘 As mentioned, no one is infallible which extends beyond those working on the car 🤘 - Taz.
Sure! There are always exceptions too, but hearing them from someone elses car is a cheaper & more reliable way (for you) to get that dopamine hit perhaps 😂 - Taz.
I think you accidently put the wrong title on your video. Title ->pops and bangs. Video content -> racing clutches. Pops and bangs have nothing to do with the clutch.
5:00 There are always several options for video titles noting the thumbnail also has text which is usually read along with the title before diving in 🤘 If you in particular only came for 'pops and bangs' you learn a bit about them, why they are not necessarily a good thing, what causes them in relation to gear shifts in a setup like this and more. Everything has time stamps 😎 - Taz.

@hpa101 These videos are interesting, exciting and packed with a lot of useful information. My only criticism is that in every video the interviewer clearly understands the topic very well and spends most of the interview guiding the interviewee to say the right thing in the right way. Could HPA instead do any needed research upfront and then distill the information into a concise informational video without the need to show an interview? That way, information would be presented accurately and succinctly, much like in the many great HPA courses.
@@asian4747 Maybe. It could be even more scripted than a webinar. You can present the same information more clearly in half the time. Add some B-roll and some animations, and you have motorsport education gold.
Their paid content is pretty much exactly what you describe. HPA podcasts and these short interviews are a great way to hear industry professionals "put pen to paper" instead of just displaying the bullet points. I am a huge fan of this format and recognize Andre's talent at getting the right answers out of people; being a good interviewer takes a lot of practice. These videos and interviews complement their paid web courses well.
