WHEN CARS BETRAY YOU: My Unlucky Day at Formula Drift Japan J2 

that's the problem...... he tends on everything... he is losing focus on being a FD2 driver. he aint gonna be a champion without sacrificing something.

yo sam start running couple miles like senna did, be the top athlete and improve your stamina

Thanks for this comment made me happy, good thing don’t come easy! Being consistent is hard🤍🙏

Yup touch and go was on the literal wrong side of a straight

@@jordangarneau8817 t&g was fine. t2 outer-zone ends early so you can hit the apex of t2 instead of sticking to the edge of the pavement the entire corner. you approach t3 a lot farther right with smaller t2 exiting angle, thus giving you the speed to power down the straight. throw those rear wheels right into the t&g and get on gas to power through t3 into t4.

@@FadelessSpade no sense in defending it , any drivers that made the touch and go literally looked like a slightly angled drag race , it was horrible .

@@jordangarneau8817 making the t&g and hitting the correct line are two different things. in this event harry yoza(84) and kiyofumi hamada(87) hit the t&g smoothly even though they didn't have perfect lines because they came out of t2 closer to the apex. the drivers adapted to the track, as it's suppose to be. anyone who stayed in t2 too long didn't get a smooth t&g, simple. it's why t2s outer-zone ends early, to not punish those who come out early for t3 and set up the correct line. yea it was a hard t&g and rain didn't help t2s exiting speed, but the t&g also sort of the point of that rounds layout. driver adaptability.

@Fade yea if that track was a rounded bank , it's literally a C , the t&g is on a straight. That would far better service its purpose on the other side of the track . No run looked natural or smooth with the T&g

Yeah, I think the real problem was he didn't have enough time in the schedule for a proper shakedown. Any racecar will have a few gremlins after a rebuild like that, just needs time to work them all out.

They need to put it at the apex bricks not after it dumb moves from them

Hee, I don't think I quite made it. I was fading hard when there was some delay right near the end. :)
