Racing Teams Keep Making This Mistake

Tenths of a second define winning and losing in motorsport, so why do the worst race cars go so badly. What defines a failed racer? What causes racing fails? How do you make a winning race car? These are the questions that we all ask. Knowing exactly how to win is difficult, but the losing formula has been mastered by many teams, and this video will explain that perfectly.

    15:12 fun fact: The world record of the highest jump is 30 meters (by audi Quattro s1 e2) 2nd place was hyundai i20. When you said the "group b cars are strong" your wrong it's lancia 037 that's made out of cardboard the other cars e.g audi Quattro were not weak

    • @FailedRacers
      @FailedRacers 15 днів тому

      Hmm, I can't find any information on the highest jump, only on longest jump, which makes sense because it's hard to measure the height of a jumping rally car without equipment present, you can measure the length with just some distance markers or a measuring tape to the recorded touchdown point. No group B cars are in the records for longest jump. I'm guessing the highest is Aleksandr Saluk in Turkey 2010.

    Also, as one dude trying to capture the north american events as much as possible, rally footage is expensive to capture due to: Distance between shooting points and recce fuel/time. Proper recce eats an additional day up, as well as running the entire stage/transit miles in our own vehicle. LSPR was nearly 500 miles of recce iirc, and we spent the entire day doing that. The sheer quantity of entrants, depending on how many cars pass, and if they've instituted safety dust minutes for that event. For example: LSPR had 71 entrants, and added dust minutes. That translates to 2.5 or so hours stuck in one spot on stage Most days I can manage to catch 3 stages per day, but the dust minutes, combined with cancelling some stages as it got dark, and running some stages in strange orders (slower privateer regional competitors running ahead of national competitors) meant we managed to catch just 2 stages in there entirety, and what we got on day 2 was the same stage from a slightly different angle since we were stuck for both runs, for over 5 hours total since they never made the stage cold to allow normal traffic in and out. That was a long and expensive trip, and I was a little upset at the quantity of footage I had at the end of it vs the cost of travelling to it.

    Yeah, as I cover more and more ARA events in the US, I've grown increasingly tired of hearing about group B from people who are absolutely *NOT* fans of the sport, that don't go out of their way to support modern rally in the least. Modern WRC is sick, I just dont know if my current budgetary constraints will allow me to go see it in the next few years, unfortunately. Not holding my breath for Rally USA, but it'd sure be neat to see an actual WRC round in the US again in my lifetime. Cheers from Ohio!

    The Accent was never forgotten in some countries. In fact, they were and still is huge. Just not in North America as far as I know. I remember seeing these cars in Korea back in the day pushing over 400whp out of those 1.6L Alpha engines as well as in other countries. Engine swaps were also popular on these using Beta engines as well. Pumping out such power on boost using ONLY factory components believe it or not.

    Hyundai's improvement in the WRC second time around parallels with Cadillac's improvement in world motorsports after failing miserably at their first attempt at endurance racing. It's not just Hyundai's rallying efforts that improved in the 2010s, it was their touring car racing efforts too. Remember the brave little Australian Hyundai Super Touring Car in the 1990s? Not many people do.
