    Vielen Dank für das Video! Als ich klein war ist mein Großvater einen 190E Evo gefahren. Nicht im Renneinsatz, aber sehr schnell im Straßenverkehr. Ich denke das hat mich geprägt in Hinsicht auf meine Leidenschaft für schnelle Autos und gerade dieses Modell hat immer eine gewisse Faszination für mich. Der Evo meines Großvaters wurde nach seinem Tod innerhalb der Familie verschenkt und hat schließlich einen neuen Besitzer gefunden, welcher ihn auf der Nordschleife bewegt. Da gehörte er auch hin.

    • @GreenDevilVtec
      @GreenDevilVtec 10 років тому

      Peeters M F1 is harder to get to the limits, harder to keep under control at the limits and harder to catch if lost it. So of course, they know the track like the back of their hand but it's goes without saying at this level. Not to mention when they race under a heavy rain. Whatever, if I could be a half as skilled as a WRC driver, I would be the happiest men in the world.

    depends on the gearbox really. some don't like it, others will slip from gear to gear like in the video. also getting the revs just right allows seamless gear change. I found with my car which has a 530,000km flogged to hell with 3/4th syncro still shifts well with no clutch but is temperamental depending on oil temp. My old vw goes through gears like butter without a clutch. One hyundai getz I drove brand new loved no clutch shifting, but crunched with clutch if I shifted too fast.

      +Antoine Roy lol. he's not shifting above the rev limiter as that's not even possible (hence the name rev LIMITER). The car has a dogbox transmission which has no syncros, allowing the driver to take the car out of gear without the clutch and pre-load the next gear which he then pops the transmission into gear by pressing on the throttle again. As for revving the engine while braking - he is heel-toe downshifting AKA rev matching to allow the car to downshift extremely fast without causing the back end to shimmy.

      +Antoine Roy Im not going to argue about if you supposedly "saw" someone shift 500 rpm about the rev limiter. I was saying its not possible because a car that has a legit rev limiter will not let the engine go past the set rpm of said limiter. the rpms will just bounce back.

    • @bartparet
      @bartparet 9 років тому +1

      BloodPshyco73 i hope i'm correct here,
      race transmission has straight gears(hence the wining) this enables him to pull the next gear simply by going off the throttle and shifting at the same time.
      when you release the throttle your trans runs 'free' for a split second (this doest work in downshifting as there is a constant force on the trans when braking)

    • @LarryLinton
      @LarryLinton 9 років тому +2

      Bart Paret its called dog engagement. . Yes the straight cut gears whine but has nothing to do with how the gears select.
      Basically its a gearbox with no syncro rings which lets you change up without the clutch and as fast as humanly possible.

    • @coenijn
      @coenijn 9 років тому

      BloodPshyco73 Because it is in fact not a sequential transmission (because if it were sequential shifting upwards would constantly be in the same direction (either push or pull) and shifting downwards in the opposite direction). Even then, downshifting without a clutch is possible but very difficult even in a vehicle with a sequential gearbox, because there would be very little time to allow the engine to rev match when you're blipping the throttle heel-toeing. This guy's got a dog box which is some middle way between an H-pattern shifter and a sequential gearbox. It allows extremely quick upshifting, often without a clutch, but it also allows him to skip gears when downshifting. He pushes the clutch on the downshift so he can apply the heel-toe technique I mentioned earlier so that the engine revs at approximately the same amount of revs as the gearbox, which makes for a smoother downshift so that you don't upset the rear end of the car too much. At full revs upsetting the rear end of the car could mean that you canget some sort of lift off oversteer or other things ruining your lap times. Saves the clutch plates as well (marginally), but racers usually don't care about that.

Also is not as expensive to make a dogleg as a normal gearbox for plant . So there must be a reason. ;) Ofcourse this i my opinion and i'm not vertical about it.

      not necessarily. you CAN upshift without using the clutch on a synchronized constant mesh. but its not advisable.
      you can have a dogbox with synchronizers. and you can have a clutchless shift like these. this trans is synchronized. and you can shift clutchlessly on the upshift.

      But it's true, he later installed a JUDD V8 into such a car.

      to rev match. its a clutchless dogbox (straight cut gears) so it can shift going up without the clutch.

    Why can't they just use sequential gearboxes like these instead of those stupid flappy pedals? I'm pretty sure these wouldnt be more expensive to put into cars than those dual clutch automatics. Its like consumers have some serious issues with a working a clutch pedal. Like you don't even have to use the clutch in a dogbox all the time, except for stop and start. Hmmm....awesome driving though. Like a Boss !!

      What is the point in making everything easier? That way you are killing the craft that makes driving cars like that. Just compare Groub B in Rally and the present cars/emotions. Same goes for F1 in ' 70, ' 80 and early ' 90. There is nothing nice in driving lika a play station, like modern DTM. That is sooooo boring, I do not even bother to watch it when I see it on the TV. All 'smart' things we put into our machines makes us ' stupider ' and that is a fact.

      647killa As much as you dislike flappy paddle gearboxes, they're not only there for ease of driving.
      It's also safer, as the driver doesn't have to take his hands from the wheel. Or (In the case of a missed gear or some other problem) look down at his shifter.

      Than again we are going back to making everything easier and killing what we admire - the true skill that you have to develop with determination. Nothing in this world is safe and we have to be aware of that, not to think that when we have flappy paddle gearboxes and both hand on our steering wheel - we are safer.We are never safe, but I prefer this sport to demand skills and not only that sport - in general it is good to demand skills, cause that is what is pushing us forward

      @@carlosmartos7009 He is braking with his right foot 90% of the time. I had a hard time learning to left foot brake because I usually did what he did out of habit, but once I learned I was able to pick up a second a lap. I can only guess that he has a stock gearbox in that car and not a dog-ring gearbox where you only use the clutch when you are in 1st gear.
