The sound is magical I bet after an endurance race you would hear that sound for days as the driver. Traction control = accelerator ABS = Brake pedal Stability Control = Steering wheel Masterful car control.

These cars aren't as sophisticated as modern race cars. Much more primitive handling characteristics, it took a lot of driver skill to go fast with these cars. To wring out a lap as fast as possible, you have to drive like this. It's not a choice

@TheWestAspen Жыл бұрын

@@danielandrews5315 Sure, no question there was more driver input required into going fast in the past, but when dealing with expensive vintage race cars, it is rare to see a driver actually push the car to it's limits... most of them "tour" around the track as if its' more of a novelty.

@rider65 Жыл бұрын

@@TheWestAspen I suspect the reason is twofold; number one the absurd amount of money that some of these vintage race cars fetch, most of them of course, in terms of actual parts and build value, and reproduction parts so more expensive to produce nowhere near unobtainium prices. Unfortunately the perceived values are manipulated to an extent. It's no different than art collectors who purposely bid high on certain pieces of work to drive the value up. They get their dick buddies in a circle jerk and decide to increase the perceived value at auctions by colluding, this is nothing new this goes back centuries) The second reason is that most of these guys are not really experienced enough to push the limits of the car, they can drive good enough but they don't have that next level ability. I can speak from experience while I was a decent Club racer and fared okay in the expert class, just to get to the next level in the expert class was above my paygrade, never mind the professional class... it's all relative...

I was driving down to Le Mans (2018 or 19) and in the distance in the rear view mirror I saw a green and white outline, I said to my Dad “I think a Lola t70 is coming up behind us”. A second or two later a thunderous roar then a Green T70 with white toe to tail stripes passes us then disappeared into the distance. We caught up with the driver at the service station at the Somme. The driver & passenger were good lads, we had a good chat with them. They were in a right mess, the Lola only had a vent window and the temperature in the car was about 40’C , they said they’d had enough and they were contacting a friend to organise flatbed to take them the rest of the way down to Le Mans. The T70 was a GTD T70 built to 100% original blueprint FIA spec, the two guys were the owners, they’d had it built to full original specifications to go classic GT racing.

@bloqk16 Жыл бұрын

As myself an American, I'm thoroughly impressed with the *vigor* these vintage cars are driven at by the European drivers; as it gives a good indication of the noise, vibrations, struggles with the steering, and the speed of the cars going back in their heydays over 50 years ago. Whereas in the US, similar or the same cars are, from most of the videos I've seen on YT, driven at speeds just a tad above parade pace on the US race courses.

Beyond the heroic drives and incredible tracks, your production lets the cars speak for themselves with minimal music and a lack of over-editing. You present superior video and ESPECIALLY audio quality in a way that I have simply not seen done. Please keep sharing these beautiful cars and historic races with us.
