- What makes the Datsun 1600 such a popular rally car and such a good car to drive?
A take on it from a former McLaren vehicle dynamics engineer.

So glad you're showing how the suspension works. This indeed defines (makes or breaks) how a car handles at the limit.
Thanks Chris, it's an interesting rabbit hole as you know. Simple ideas and complex interactions. I love it.
Sounds great
Not as good as you on the piano 🤩
Hey up mate had a1600sss rally car in early 80s even on test drive before buying it felt totally comfortable sliding anywhere and anytime loved it and even more after fitting a 5.1 slippery diff, back then people said the escorts were better rally car's but didn't handle as well
Very cool. Was it a two door?
We were very lucky the paddock Datto didn’t reach 200kph or we would have had to deal with all the “slush in the steering box “ 😂😂😂
Awesome vid mate👍👍
Do you have a link where I can purchase a micron increment tape measure.
😂😂😂. Muchas gracias amigo
That's a good idea for our first merch line. Batten cars micron measuring tape t-shirt 😅
Cool car
Thanks. Cool plane and channel name 😉
You can adjust the slush in the steering box right? Mine is quite minimal
Yep you can but it's a trade-off with friction - and still won't be as good as a rack 👍
I clicked on this vid cause it had 510 views at the time .
Aha, I see what you did there 😂😂
