When running that low its always either a solid plate or rails that touch before anything important, that way they can keep it so close to the ground that basically no air is allowed underneath. That helps downforce A LOT (that's why they have a rule for how low an F1 car can be, they don't want people breaking their back on humps at 300kph, but in hillclimb they never achieve such speeds so they have different height rules).
Just pure absolute sound, LOVE it. That engine is music to my ears. I think it's safe to say that he's driven this course a good many times, the speed at which he pilots the corners is insanity hahaha!! (EDIT) with the exception of the mishap at 4:20 time

I'm glad the Mercedes won. Would of loved to been piloting that beast. Driver did well with just that little uh-oh which hey if your pushing that hard let's face it that's bound to happen at some point. My congrats to both car and driver. Made it look way easier and I'm sure way way less expensive then it actually is!!! Great video!!!
You know us Aussie car guys think we're pretty cool in the car scene , and we are!!, but this takes the cake for all out unbelievable :-) . Wtf did I see at 4:20 he just kept going flat out still after that!!! :-) :-) Guys ,here's an awesome driver in some majorly awesome engineering , WOW
I was going to post how this reminds me of Georg, and how it's thought his crash was due to bottoming out, and not allowing him to turn properly when he need to.
Its a good thing these roads are pretty smooth, I can feel every bump in my car with its stiff suspension, I can only imagine how a bump feels with how low and stiff this beauts ride is.
Rally car's drivers have an actual copilot to tell them where to turn and how's the turn. A single driver could not drive at night with nothing but his headlights, ESPECIALLY with monstrous aero and over 600hp.
Hard as a rock. Notice the exhaust blowing the rear diffuser, he needs to map the engine accordingly to keep gases coming out under braking otherwise the downforce levels fluctuate causing pretty evident unbalance on corner entry. My two cents
Thomas Kwon actually it is good to have a car this low with this kind of turns. Deep car maximum downforce -> faster turns. This is not a highspeed track. Look at f1 in Monaco the setup is similar.
This by all means it's not good, yes you need to maximize the amount of down force but this could actually get you disqualified in F1, that's why they have to race with a wood plank underneath that gets measured at the end of every race to see how much got "sanded" down
Alexis Maldonado Alexis Maldonado well good thing this isn’t F1. For the purposes of a hill climb the scraping is tradeoff you can live with because of the added downforce. You want to carry as much speed as possible into and out of the turns. I.e you want your car as low as possible. Clearly it works given how fast he went.
Mercedes could not built good engines… without Judd the car would be not successful. The best race cars and engines are all Made in England for many times.
@@simontemplar4093that’s not true at all. Mercedes can’t build a V6 or V12 to save their life, but their V8’s have ranged from pretty decent to downright reliability stalwarts.
Super Video! Der SLK ist das Monster Pur.... Da kannste nichts abstreiten.. Aber Ihr könnt mal ein Video von dem 2. fachen Europameister Ronnie Bratscho machen :)
Ja genau, als Slalom Champion 2013. Ich werde schon wiedermal eines machen von. In den letzten beiden Jahren ist er halt nicht sehr oft hier gefahren oder hatte auch zum Teil technische Probleme.
probably a flat plane with a different firing order, or a cross plane with a manifold that evens out the exhaust pulses, idk, can't find info on the engine
3.4L 90º v8, manifold is common plenum with divider wall between banks and the setup uses roller ITBs Don't know of the exhaust layout. Definitely sounds like traditional cross plane crank to me. flat plane have a distinct inline 4 sound like a honda, this has a throbby pulsing to it.
I'm not sure the suspension guy and the aerodynamicist were in the same meeting. I won't pretend to be another youtube expert, but there is no way the diffuser with that much volume is going to be getting 'filled' when the car is riding that low.
