I was standing just before the start line and was absolutely struck by the speed and lack of sound. It reminded me of seeing a Waco biplane with a jet engine doing an air show routine at the Reno air races. The sound didn’t match what I was witnessing. The VW pit set up was also extremely well done. Clear heated tents for the car and crew so the spectators could see, hospitality tent for the VIPs, truck covers with the VW logo to put over the U-haul rental trucks used for parts and equipment. Very impressive and top shelf to be sure.
The Stanley Steamer in the 20’s (1920’s for you kids out there) impressed people as much as this run….almost silent as it ascended the hill and gained speed as it climbed….totally unbelievable at the time.
I have to agree. Also electric has many advantages over a gas engine such as instant torque and not being affected to the decrease in oxygen as it climbs.
Avec le recul même si je t’aime et te préfère au volant de 6 à plat ou du proto Norma… et surtout que tu nous reviennes en bonne en bonne santé mon p’tit poulet !!! Encore félicitations rétroactivement voisin 🎉❤
Would love to see a split screen with Loeb to see where the time is cut off the run....is it microscopic gains in every straight, or better power at elevation? Would be interesting to see!
Electric engines have instant torque, so basically every time Loeb changed gears there was a split second without power. Also oxygen decreases constantly during the climb, I am sure Loeb's team adjusted this, however that something an electric car doesn't need to worry about.
Next step, they make track magnetic so the cars can hoover over, race record 3:00. Pilots need to be scratched from the back of the cabine every single race 🤣
the acceleration ridiculous, that made the control on steering more difficult, that's a little issue there, because it's track racing car so you need so much grip especially in the uturns, yet no doubt the car one of the best racing track toys, and it smashed the numbers, it just need a good driver, plus good weather.

En plus là VW est vraiment quasiment une prototype du man adapté à pikes peak (j'entends par là châssis monocoque carbone aerodynamisne ultra poussé sur la carrosserie etc). En comparaison les ingénieurs Peugeot pour construire la 208 t16 avaient du faire avec des pièce existantes dans un temps record. (châssis tubulaire en alu, la voiture ayant des contrainte sur l'aero puisqu'elle devaient reprendre les formes de la 208. Un moteur v8 repris de je sais plus où mais il aurait pu avoir plus performant) moi je dis j'espère le retour de Peugeot et Sébastien Loeb.
The Volkswagen I.D. R also known as Volkswagen I.D. R Pikes Peak, is a prototype fully electric vehicle designed as part of Volkswagen's I.D.

Romain Dumas has been 13 seconds faster than Sébastien Loeb. . Not much, but the French driver has won 8 world rally championships. I hate electric cars, but that's the future that awaits us.
But I wonder whether they bothered to obey environmental regulations when building the batteries (or sourcing their materials)? Technological advances don't fix moral failing, unfortunately.

On a Gas engine, efficiency is ~15%... Which means that 15% of fuel's energy are actually converted in traction. 85% of the energy are lost in form of heat and sound pressure.

Group B guys did it in 10 minutes, while this guy in 8. But the group B guys didn't even have tarmac on the road nor electronics... much more impressive.
After the high of watching Sebastian Loeb's run in the Peugeot this clip left me feeling deflated. There is no drama and excitement to the sound, instead I was reminded of vehicles racing in one of those Star Wars movies. Seems fast is'nt always engrossing.
je n'aime pas ce son, je préfère entendre "hurler" un beau v12 ou un v10 ou un gros v8! et pour moi une course sans son de moteur n'a aucun sens!, car les bruits de moteurs hurlants, c'est l'essence même de la course automobile, c'est ça le "pied" et rien d'autre!!!.

Right, now I know that sound is important. The supercut with the Peugeot 208 T16 kept me fixated all the way though, but I was bored of this after about three minutes...
It's not the sound at all. This video is boringly made. With the Leob climb all the cams we had were in the car. We were part of the action. Through the video you could feel the break-neck speed. This video with the VW has just one such instance, and that's the few second short clip of the dash-cam.
Saw the old video when Walter Röhrl made the pace - on Sand. There are thing in live that should never be changed. One of them is Pikes Peak. So. today it looks like a lame, strange sounding sleeping pill . . . .
Volksvagen please fix the sound, thanks. Just look at the view count... The aerial view is bad too.. Otherwise congfrats, looks like a hell of a ride. Bravo Dumas!

Indeed, it would have been interesting to do, but unfortunately there is no onboard for the race day.
Loeb faster on the corner. But top speed for electric car .see weight
Electric cars will always have an advantage at higher altitudes. So probably some time is lost in that factor
It's easy to go that fast when you're chased by the police. You can clearly hear them. If he slowed down he'd get shot.
Electric engines have instant torque, so basically every time Loeb changed gears there was a split second without power. Also oxygen decreases constantly during the climb, I am sure Loeb's team adjusted this, however that something an electric car doesn't need to worry about.
I love the wing and aero's on that car, Over 1,000 pounds of downforce! Seems like the road is vacuumed now for the next car.

Next step, they make track magnetic so the cars can hoover over, race record 3:00. Pilots need to be scratched from the back of the cabine every single race 🤣
The car has a skirt you can see. A video I watch explained that the undercar aero is the majority of it.
