That's some horrific understeer.

That gravel trap did its job!

We had back roads like that near me in the late 1970’s. By sheer luck I avoided putting my KH250 and then GS750 into the hedges and ditches that surrounded them. In the ensuing years I’ve not gained any more skill and certainly lost the bravery (or foolhardiness). Keep up the good work, it’s videos like these that make me realise I’ve got a first class degree in “watching” not “doing” 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Crazy understeer in that setup.

KZfaq algorithm strikes again. That looked like a lot of fun until the end. The back was stepping out and under steered horribly. I thought it was cold tires until I read your comment about old rubber. You did well to keep it under control and yeah, the car looks much better with proper tires!

Wow the comments section has really taken off here! Just to update everyone making assumptions on the issue. The car was running old tyres, we were due to put new ones on the next run and pushed too hard on these ones. The car used to run a basic front wing which added very little downforce, if you watch more recent videos it now has a much more aggressive carbon front wing. If you watch some of the onboards videos from the last 2 years you will see the car is now on rails everywhere we go. Thanks for watching and for the comments!

Surprised it made it that far to be honest

That car needed set up, the under steer is horrendous.

I'll start reading the armchair World Champion comments first...

you know, i love when theres a crash video and theres a plethora of people who think they're experts when realistically many probably dont race irl and/ or tune cars for maximum grip and laptimes

That looks like a ton of fun, except for the end. Happens sometimes even if you do nothing wrong, and it always stinks. Total rush through the old stone houses!

thats a great route

It looked like couple of the corners surprised you… Late entry. Always chasing the right line.

The algorithm has blessed you! This looks like so much fun, keep up the good work

Cars lacking front end grip

And that, kids, is what we, in the underworld, call a blind corner. Do not cut!

What a beautiful location

Well done - darn fast machine

that tiny patch of gravel actually helped a lot

but in the end was it the tires+understeer or was it the bumps? My guess is it was the bumps in the road, because the tires were doing at least something up to that point, so it seems reductive to assume they lost grip completely out of nowhere

Committed! Glad you're OK.

Fantastic Track good and scary

American here, what kinda cars/karts are these? How much they cost?

Looks like he got a little airborne off that corner and couldn't turn since his rubber left the road. At least the trap did its job.

Wow good job

Amazing to read all the comments from the ex F1 champions in here!

Damn. Looks like you went off at one of the only spots with any run-off. Phew!

So much fun

Imagine being the guy who gets to place the car at the starting line (I'm a newb, don't hate). Gets to be right there when every car launches.

Is it just me, or does that car have a lot of understeer?

Love your driving skills, really. A couple of wrong lines, don't know why, car setup?

biiig undeeeer

Man you didn’t look comfortable driving that.

The car is not understeering as much as it looks, the camera angle is causing it to look like it is

That was terminal understeer

Doing well …don’t give up

What is with the stearing left and right side? It not look synchron. He stear and the car dont turn correctly. With slicks it has to work mutch better 🤔

O me lo.parece a mi o está mal reglado ??

Not easy...brave guys.

What is the name of these kind of races

So.. what happened?

Is that a GSXR engine ?

Le proto il part en sous-virage dans tous les virages

Don't touch my tires with your dirty gloves! :D

damn I thought he was going to lose the rear end, he lost the front end!

Tires were to hard?

I have tremendous debt difficulties and my wifes and 8 kids really hate what I do for a living.. I door to door preach and sell rainbow vacuum cleaners and sometimes homemade whares.. but really I always have respected men that aren't scared to drive fast. My family is from Utah and I never could leave. The sex is great and a bicycle gets me places... one question though how much a sport car like this costs and does a racetrack sign you a waiver or can my lawyer determine that I was influenced to buy one or the track caused me to wreck in a lake. Or faulty equipment cause these thingy looks powersome... or if wife ride too?

holy mother of understeer

We need more downforce on the front end Glad safe!!!!

It wasn't a big surprise the crash happened because of understeer

Guy touches grass a half dozen times before he goes off

It looks weird when the car turns with it tires from that angle.

scary stuff

That had next to zero front end grip

Bro, let go of my tire!

Good driver with poor tyres. The car dosent look set up right.

Basically the run went well until you went fast.

so.much.understeer.

mental

Burnt the toast

You completely misjudged that last corner

Daddy, I wanna go on that ride.

🤘💀

Need to slow down for the corners. If the car is understeering...you don't turn more. The driver is wearing out the front tires in order to slow the car down for corners. The excessive steering angle causes more tire wear, and more understeer, which led to the crash. Instead of scrubbing off speed with understeer, just slow down with the brakes and modulate throttle better through the corners. You dont go any faster with so much slip angle. Just wearing out tires for no reason. Maybe practice more in a sim first, learn some theory.

I'm sure amazon sells tyre warmers...

trackmania irl

Loads of understeer I'd say - unless the camera angle is deceptive

Bad setup and/or worn out tires. This understeer is really painful to watch, also there's oversteer on exit making the car difficult to drive I assume.

Oops

That suspension geometry looks really weird and explains reason for high slip angles at the front

oooops

that track looked very narrow.

The moon failed to guide your path along the track 😲😂

Not really a crash, but still fun

The bumps in the road unsettled it and caused the tyres to lose traction at the back

That looks horrible to drive, understeer is awful then bites you with oversteer.

Shit happens...

Seems like my i30 has better grip.

Oops 😬

OOPS

not a crash

Who in their right mind puts bollards on a race track?!

I'm no car set up expert but that amount of Oversteer every bend with Slicks on tells me something needs tweaking.. even when the tyres are up to temperature its still without any grip.. 🤔

Looked like you were fighting the car but pushing the limits and over cooked it like you said older tyres less grip at the vital point still think maybe alittle less gas and ease into that light right hand would of been better but you know more about your car and set up than me just hope there wasn’t too much damage buddy and your all ok

Untidy from the start I'm afraid. First time on that course I assume

Christ, understeer much?

Troppo sottosterzo

Went exactly where he was looking…gotta be careful with fixating on points like that

I see what you did wrong. You crashed.

Looks like heinous oversteer to me actually, and terribly high dampening on the suspension.. he was never going to make it through those long meanders.

not overteering

Whoever made and paved this road, the angles and turns are so horribly designed

understeer into the corner and oversteer on exit, asking for a crash

Waaaaaayyyyyy too fast!

Save lifetime and jump to 1:08.

from start it was a shitty one,the driver has nothing in common with the wheel,sportcar is not for evreyone

Bro the tuning coils def need a down-spring and the engine dials need to be reheated. This guy totally should've known this and he would've made it through that turn fine. Gosh

Meh… I’d be faster up there in the wet, 40mph headwind and on a Penny Farthing with a buckled wheel

Omg. Hope he/she looks for another sport. Bad driver

sloppy. the driver is really sloppy.
