So many engineers and professional drivers in the comments. We're so lucky to be graced by these wonderful people sharing their decades of experience and insight.
Yeah, I know they're volunteers but that's just not appropriate to have someone that age doing what they're doing. Should be behind the fence / gate ushering spectators not in the heat of the action.
@@MisterMister5893 oh boy, you know nothing, jon snow. That is old guard car culture. Half the people driving these monstrous hypercars are elders. They are the only people that can afford it, unless you are a criminal (not saying the older folks are not also criminals).
@@dpcustoms_ Not production based so not limited on gear ratios. SADEV. Not sure race car driver would complain about too much downforce and that extreme light weight…
@@Flat4funthere’s this RU-vidr named Misha where he drove a car made by a engineer student. The car had so much downforce, they kept bottoming out and couldn’t go full speed in some sections.
@@bustjanzupan1074 Subaru WRCar went to the equal manifold with WRCar rules in 1998, JDM STi went to equal length on the 2.0L GDA model (it was only the 2.5L export model with unequal headers). 🙂
I want to see it on track. It looks like they need to dial the car in more, suspension is all loosey goosey. Car twitches like a forza playback but with the Xbox controller
Anakin Subaru: I made a 670hp WRX 😏 Padme Public: You'll use what you've learned to give the next WRX more power right? 😀 Anakin Subaru: 😏 Padme Public: It'll have more power... right? 😐
lollll, I think there's an interview with one of the individuals that are responsible for Travis Pastrana's Subaru's, and he said that the secret to have no head gasket problems is to have no head gaskets at all 😂
Even headers right? God damn it sounds beautiful. I'll never understand why Subaru drifted away from this generations body style (yes I know this isn't stock lol). It's like Subaru said "The previous generation looked too good, lets completely butcher this one with massive wheel wells and two tone paint"
There might be a ton that isn't shared about the build here... but that didn't look like near 600whp+ in an AWD vehicle coming in and out of the corners... I dont doubt it's fast, but it didn't portray the smooth maneuvering from this video.... What am I missing as to why this should be a feared monster of a car?
Watching herself amongst the people... Calibrating and resourcing comm's. Same as the Godzilla I built. Exactly same performance and creation. Nothing Nissan evermore. MAZDA.
Seen anyone calibrate? warming up the tyre's? Nope... Calibration for the electronic's. Tyre's/Suspension etc after race prepped by official's releasing her for the day.
Soooooo people, I bring to you, The Builder's Temp. ASSIGNMENT: SNUBNOSE... L.S.D. FUR Engineering and Production's. From elsewhere. Dunno who stole her... :) OOP's!!! WAR!!!
Overdriving probably. I am no professional racing driver, however I do a ton of sim racing! If you've ever driven a comparable car in a sim, you would know how snappy they might be at the corner exit! A lot of the instabilities are usually solved by being easier on the throttle at the corner exit, and by being smoother on the steering wheel. Still, I tend to find that you need to find a balance to gain the most lap time, and that some aggression is good. But the driver in the video is just A TOUCH over the limit. Nothing major.
@venorando3672 I hear you. I think we also missed something that is often overlooked. It's probable that this is the very time the driver gets to drive this car at this hillclimb. A million people watching live also doesn't help either. You are probably correct that he overdrove it. I gave it a second look. It's like the car understeered more than the driver had anticipated. Maybe at his practice pace, he had it under control. In this case, he overdrove it. That may be why the understeers weren't really corrected until the end of the corner exit. The twitchy behavior is probably the driver's attempt at couter steer, but maybe too much input because the car is very sensitive?
