I thought after the tire broke loose the first time they were going to remove the engine and transmission and 180°/turn the engine and transmission around so the transmission yoke was sticking out in front of the car to somehow mount a tire to, that way they would have a clutch and gears. Always another great episode! Merry Christmas everybody
There were experimental cars made in the 40's with a similar wheel rigged to the rear differential to allow for easy parallel parking. But in those cars, there was gear reduction from the transmission so they didn't stall, and controls to raise and lower the wheel.
maybe rig your back wheels to be like castor wheels so they can follow the circle direction. Maybe just a big plate with castor wheels, set back of car on the 'dolly plate' so your rear wheels are held off ground. Bet you'll be spinning it round and round like a mad rodeo! Great fun you guys!
It will never work in 4 gear that is almost always 1:1 there a thing called a differential and it's probably 4:1 they got what look like a 2:1 ratio with the chain system First gear is ~ 3:1 with a 4:1 diff that make a 12:1 ratio in first gear ie the engine make 12 turn for one turn of the wheel What they doing is equivalent to put your car in 4 gear and dump the clutch it will never work with a 75hp engine
Try weld the rear left wheel. it will then work like a compass. you can use a smaller wheel diameter on the engine or remove the tire and use only the rim
Not enough ground clearance for a smaller diameter wheel. Wont be enough gearing reduction anyway as for a normal car's total reduction from second gear will be about 5-1 ratio.
Next time, remove the rear axle, and mount the tire to the BACK end of the car, using the driveshaft to spin it. With less weight on the wheel, a working clutch, and first gear (or reverse!), it should spin nicely! And you can countersteer the front wheels for more style!
This time, the hilarious thing is reading the helpful comments to solve how to make this happen😂 great ideas and insight everyone! Bit odd, but feels right here!
Some ballpark math gives some indication of why this is not working. To accelerate the front of the car from 0 -160 km/h sideways in a second, would require more than 60 hp.
Attach a divorced transfer case or PTO set up on the front. Or put the engine in the back, run a driveline to the front. Less weight on the front tire, and you can use the transmission or remove the rear axle and rig that tire to run in the back
It almost works, so go for some easy, cheap modifications. Put some really narrow, small diameter tires that have had the tread shaven off and inflate all 3 tires to whatever the tires can stand. Then change that lower gear to the biggest that will fit.
Even with the engine idling, that tire is spinning at highway speed. You're trying to go 0-60mph instantly. You need 10:1 gear reduction, not just 2:1.
You should put it on some polished ice. Maybe use a wheel with a smooth metal surface attached instead so it will glide on the ice easier, kind of like an ice skate would. Reduce the weight of the car some more by removing more parts. A separate but similar experiment would be to extend the input shaft to the rear differential out of the back and attach a wheel there to see if you can do the same thing from the rear of the car. Or a bigger experiment yet, see if somehow you can attach all 4 wheels at 90 degrees and if it's possible to drive a car solely sideways. The wheels can maybe be turned via bike chains attached to sprockets welded to the driveshaft.
I think if you can keep the driver’s side rear tire in one spot so the car has a set pivot it will go. The engine keeps stalling as soon as the car starts moving forward putting a sideways force on the crankshaft tire acting like a brake
06:00 i think it could work when if you put the front area on bricks, crank the engine onto full speed and then push the car off the bricks. this way the tire suddenly gets grip....
The problem is that a normal first gear has cca. 1 to 12 reduction in rpm. You did 1 to 2 at the end. That means it was even worse than trying to start from a standstill in 5th gear. Give it a serious reduction with a small motorcycle gearbox and it should be fine.
Why not super glue a strip of an old innertube to the tread of the front tire? We used to ride those down a hill on the snow - super slick and it will hold up better than clear tape.
For your experiment to work you need a torque converter in between wheel and crank shaft and the correct gear ratio trust me I’m an experienced mechanic.
Instead of the front of the car, remove the rear end and attach a shaft that sticks out of the rear of the car and drive it with the drive shaft. That way, you can use the gears of the transmission and have use of the clutch. A true donut car. :D
If you could mount the engine backwards with the transmission it should work, but if that's not possible, or practical, perhaps mount the engine somewhere else like the back seat, or the rear end along with a generator and install an electric motor in the front with the wheel attached to it. Maybe 60 to 100 hp motor.
they could have put the radiator on the passenger side where you put your feet for more space and make a whole from there and reline the radiator pipes to the passenger side and make them go near the engine distributor and for more space remove the fenders for more ideas and better friction for the tire and made the pully aka the tire mount was the pully was stronger and tire protection like a fender so no pieces fly in your direction
You guys are doing crazier things than we used to. (That's not really a good thing 🤣). We had to park a car upside down in the garage one time. (Don't ask...)
I bet you'd bet way better results of you welded a wheel to a driveshaft and cut the back end deck put for a wheel to fit there. Then you'd get to use the gearbox and really get it going
I'm wondering why you didn't perform the same surgery at the back end of the car instead of the front, where you could have mounted a rig to carry the wheel, and then couple to the normal transmission shaft. That way, you would have a choice of gear ratios, and the clutch to enable a controlled engagement/disengagement of the power from the engine. In addition, you would also have removed all that extra mass of the engine from over the drive wheel. The engine mass requires a lot of power just to move it along. Effectively, you you would be shifting the centre of gravity / dead centre of mass from the circumference of the circle, to the dead centre of the circle. Got to be worth trying?!
normal car isn't up to 1:1 gear ratio until top gear or one below top gear. Add onto that, they all have a differential gear reduction. So you are basically taking a car, putting it in 7th gear, and dropping it without any clutch to slip. Add onto this that engine has the horsepower of a drunk child..
You need an engine with a lot of low end torque, and I do mean _a lot._ You're basically trying to start from a standstill in 4th gear (roughly depending on when your transmission is in a 1:1 ratio, my vehicle it is 6th) with no clutch and even no geared differential. 64 HP is peak power, likely. Meaning you probably hit that near the higher end of the engine's RPM. So, since the engine is already struggling, you're getting more like 20 or less HP before it stalls out.
End you even forgot about the final drive reduction (the differential) which is another a 3-4. So, it's not even starting from 4th gear. I bet if they put a couple kW of industrial electric motors (low end torque) that would do the trick.
@@Sekir80 "even no geared differential." That's what I meant by this phrase. I was alluding to the final drive ratio after the rotation passes through the differential. Also electric motors can start from stationary and have incredible amounts of torque, so I feel it doesn't fit the spirit of trying to do it with an engine that needs to stay in motion to be able to provide rotational power of any kind.
@@alwaysamongdragons7354 Ah, yes, you are right! I was wondering if you meant that, so you did. Well, true, electric vs engine would be quite a change here. Maybe I'm trying to hard to solve the problem rather than just enjoy the ride. :)
@@Sekir80 Perhaps! I just want to see them get it working in the original spirit of the video, which is why I suggested a very high low end torque engine. Perhaps even a diesel one if they have it available. 64 HP may be plenty for that car when attached to the powertrain designed for that level of power, but for a direct to wheel output it is nothing. They need to step up the size of the engine they are putting in there to do it. Or...perhaps another engine in the rear of the car, attach a driveshaft to both crankshafts, and try this again with two engines working in tandem. If anything I think that is a solution well in the spirits of this channel!
When I click on the link to go to the merch, my pc tells me that this site is not safe and will not let me go there. It sucks because I really wanted to purchase some Garage 54 merch.
get an engine with more hp than a lawn mower, then do something about the rear end or just the rear wheels. other than that idk if a different tyre would have really mattered, probably.
That is a lot of weight on a crank Motors aren't meant to carry weight on the crank like that they have rotating mass and that is it I could see that really destroying the engine fast if you put the whole weight of a vehicle on the crank journals LOL
I love watching you guys play with these. I pity your poor old Ladas. I think I’ve seen at least four different ones as your victims er I mean test cars now. The things you come up with….. WOW!
Thanks again to BMI Russia for the voice over and translation! Another awesome experiment video guys, theres are no failures here just more hard earned knowledge!
Even with the reduction gear, it's still like trying to set off in 5th gear, I can't see this ever working unless you stick a big Diesel motor with loads of torque in there.
I was wondering if a 4 cyl dragster motor was used and supercharged nitrus fed if it would have the power it would be terrifying if it did get spinning for the driver and the guy dropping the jack
A tire on the back of the car via the reduction of the transmission with a legtened propshaft would have maybe worked. Loose the back axle and straight trough the back of the car with the propshaft. If it is still spinning too fast you can use an extra chain ratio like you did in the front.
This is a good idea - we can see that the current engine - or for that matter, probably almost any engine, would not have the "umph" to turn the wheel in a 1 to 1 ratio. Putting the wheel through some sort of transmission makes sense - and having it come out the back, taking advantage of the existing clutch and transmission makes sense - with a wheel at the back of the car instead of the front. Might make it less stressful for the driver once it gets spinning as well as then the driver will be closer to the center of spinning rather than at the outside.

Bald for the win. The torque and horsepower are "hiding" in the transmission and rear end, both of which are "missing"... only way to make up for that if there's any hope at all is with lots of slip until things are moving enough that it isn't needed anymore (bring a spew bucket for the driver) 🤣
In addition to using reduced tire size, you can block the right rear wheel and engage reverse. Car will spin in the same direction. Another good try is to install a clutch in the front wheel to aliviante the start.

That was scary how that wheel shot out like that, good thing nobody was in it's path though they WERE before!
Yea I love when the top comment ruins the episode
I was thinking the exact same thing.
I thought the same but it boils down to traction and gear ratio
It took me reading @andrasszabo7386 comment to understand yours. Cant wait to see a backward engine circle making machine.
There were experimental cars made in the 40's with a similar wheel rigged to the rear differential to allow for easy parallel parking. But in those cars, there was gear reduction from the transmission so they didn't stall, and controls to raise and lower the wheel.

It will never work
in 4 gear that is almost always 1:1 there a thing called a differential and it's probably 4:1 they got what look like a 2:1 ratio with the chain system
First gear is ~ 3:1 with a 4:1 diff that make a 12:1 ratio in first gear ie the engine make 12 turn for one turn of the wheel
What they doing is equivalent to put your car in 4 gear and dump the clutch it will never work with a 75hp engine

Russian engineering at its finest
An interesting modification would be using the "fifth" wheel as a flywheel, using a one-way clutch to improve fuel's efficiency.
Some ballpark math gives some indication of why this is not working. To accelerate the front of the car from 0 -160 km/h sideways in a second, would require more than 60 hp.

Give it a serious reduction with a small motorcycle gearbox and it should be fine.
I feel the need for a centrifugal clutch 😎
Two rear axles...? Looks like the basis for a skid steer project to me!
that gives me an idea for a suggestion:
using the same idea here but in a way to orient the wheel horizontally to make a ball launcher with the engine
Why not super glue a strip of an old innertube to the tread of the front tire? We used to ride those down a hill on the snow - super slick and it will hold up better than clear tape.
It's only got 60HP at high RPM, unfortunately that much spinning mass I think is dragging it down, and when it hits the ground it deadstops the motor.
For your experiment to work you need a torque converter in between wheel and crank shaft and the correct gear ratio trust me I’m an experienced mechanic.
Heroic effort!!!

G'day Garage54,
🤔So today we learned when your drive tyre is Cranky your car won't go
Merry Christmas from Australia 🎄🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🛷🤶🍹🍺🎅🏖
If only that engine made like 100 more horsepower youd be having alota fun
rough calculation - if you're wheel & tyre have a total of 22" in diameter, then at 4000rpm it's trying to do 260mph.
am I the only one yelling at the monitor to unmount the tyre and try it with the bare rim?! Less traction and smaller diameter = more torque!
If you could mount the engine backwards with the transmission it should work, but if that's not possible, or practical, perhaps mount the engine somewhere else like the back seat, or the rear end along with a generator and install an electric motor in the front with the wheel attached to it. Maybe 60 to 100 hp motor.

I would love if they checked the front crankshaft bearing of the first engine after dumping all the weight of the front of the car onto the crank 😂
You're in essence doing 4rth gear clutch dumps. Lmmfao!!!
they could have put the radiator on the passenger side where you put your feet for more space and make a whole from there and reline the radiator pipes to the passenger side and make them go near the engine distributor and for more space remove the fenders for more ideas and better friction for the tire and made the pully aka the tire mount was the pully was stronger and tire protection like a fender so no pieces fly in your direction
Think the issue is in the rear diff not letting it spin easy enough on the back tires
You guys are doing crazier things than we used to. (That's not really a good thing 🤣). We had to park a car upside down in the garage one time. (Don't ask...)
I bet you'd bet way better results of you welded a wheel to a driveshaft and cut the back end deck put for a wheel to fit there. Then you'd get to use the gearbox and really get it going
You need to use a torque multiplier: a transmission. The engine lacks torque off the crank.
A bigger sproket on the crankshaft or weight in the trunk to lighten up the front of the car
2:40 pm Install a V-8 engine!
What creativity!
Weight behind rear axle for sure!

You should turn the gears the other way so its easier for the motor
Its practically on a 1 to 1 ratio like starting in 4th gear
Need a torque multiplier . Not enough torque guys . But funny as hell . lolol
aw man that poor main crankshaft bearing lol
Turn the engine and transmission around and use the transmission output to spin the tire.
Are the tires in the rear as hard are they can be and as narrow as you can get?
Put a hard solid very narrow front tire on it.
Make the rear wheels float and see if you could use the wheels as a flywheel? Just a theory
Maybe using a spare tire and some sort of torque converter would help?
You need a clutch. The engine can only produce sufficient torque at high rpm
Its like trying to do a third gear standing start U turn in a one-way street, exiting at 40 MPH 😮 oh yeah with no clutch 😅
You have to go the other way and reduce RPM to increase the torque IMO.
They did reduce rpm, just not by enough
It needs to be belted to the output on the transmission
Question: If it is on the crankshaft, doesn´t starting the engine stop from weight?
you should try a 10 inch wheel from an old mini
I wonder if you can find some heat plastic to wrap it in. Keep it smooth over the tread, and keep tight to the tire
Make a diff that switches lock or open on demand
What would happen if you sprayed small amounts of RC Nitromethane into the intake.
They should have used the metal tube wheels or just a rim with no tire at all
normal car isn't up to 1:1 gear ratio until top gear or one below top gear. Add onto that, they all have a differential gear reduction. So you are basically taking a car, putting it in 7th gear, and dropping it without any clutch to slip. Add onto this that engine has the horsepower of a drunk child..
Bahahahaha awesome!! Y'all must have fun with this stuff I'm sure 😀
Ford did this in a special truck called the fx5 it was on the rear tho
Here’s your problem…. Potato wine.
How about using a spacesaver/emergency spare as its got less surface area?
you need at least 10 to 1 reduction to to get in the area of 1srt gear.
It may spend round and round for a while but if it ever gets any torque it will break in front of the crankshaft
Use a Diesel engine, which has way more torque.
Horsepower doesn't bring you far in this case.
Try and make a 3 wheel Lada that would be cool
you need thousands of newtons to spin a tire from a standstill. spinning in circles just makes things worse, not even a diesel would be enough.
I’ve owned one of these, the engine has very very low torque. Even in low gear you have to rev. up to move the car.
wonder if it would work on a diesel big engine
the design is very human
maybe if the car were longer it would have more leverage to work with.
You need an engine with a lot of low end torque, and I do mean _a lot._ You're basically trying to start from a standstill in 4th gear (roughly depending on when your transmission is in a 1:1 ratio, my vehicle it is 6th) with no clutch and even no geared differential. 64 HP is peak power, likely.

Not enough torque. You need a gear-set to lower the 1:1 ratio!
