Mooneyzs Posted September 4, 2016 Posted September 4, 2016 That was freaking awesome!!!. I can't believe how big that size wing is. Very cool video.
Draggon Posted September 4, 2016 Posted September 4, 2016 Stuck to the pavement like a slot car. Great to watch! Didn't he beat the record by almost a half second?
cobraman Posted September 4, 2016 Posted September 4, 2016 That's like a billboard stuck to your car.
unclescott58 Posted September 4, 2016 Posted September 4, 2016 Sorry to say, I found it boring to watch.
Ace-Garageguy Posted September 4, 2016 Posted September 4, 2016 Fast and sticky little car !. I had no idea those had continued to evolve so far. Fascinating.
Toner283 Posted September 5, 2016 Posted September 5, 2016 Sorry to say, I found it boring to watch. If you had an understanding and an appreciation of how much work and how much fine tuning it takes to make a race car stick to the corners wide open like that you might not dismiss it so easily. A lot of cars carrying that much speed and momentum into the corner would slide right up the track and try to smash a hole through the outside wall. It takes a very well set-up car and a very skilled driver to make a race car go around the track like that.

It may have been an impressive feat, but I found it boring to watch. It is okay that you did not find it boring and liked it. It is also okay that we do agree on this.
Greg Myers Posted September 5, 2016 Posted September 5, 2016 That's the beauty of Facebook, only a "Like" button. I remember an old ditty that goes something like this : " If'n you cain't say sumpin" nice, don't say nuttin' atall."

Draggon Posted September 5, 2016 Posted September 5, 2016 (edited) But can one do that in traffic ? Ck this out. You can clearly see how much faster a properly set up car with a good driver and massive aero aids can be. Edited September 5, 2016 by Draggon
Greg Myers Posted September 5, 2016 Posted September 5, 2016 Many times certain advantages prevail. Often times more than one advantage is necessary. Speed and driver skill in this instant. Very impressive.
espo Posted September 5, 2016 Posted September 5, 2016 I would think there could be a problem on a night with high cross winds.
