He was definitely having some traction issues on the exit but the car wasn't understeerin. I see a lot of torque steer. 500hp is too much, though - 300 would be better suited for the traction available.
It is obvious when you watch the video this car has too much torque/power regarding its weight/size, the wheels just keep drifting and even on straight lines the driver keeps fighting with the steerwheel !! Many solutions and some was noticed right above : also reduce power, or it needs more weight/aerodynamics/tyre-size to keep it "grounded" ;) Sorry 4 bad english i'm french
True man. I'd like to have the stock 120hp of this little monster 106 GTi and be able to put all that power on the track, than have 500hp and slide arround whole time..
Great to see the 106s still in use in motorsports still after 20 years, this one I think would be benefit the engine in the rear tho, great job tho mate 👍
Yeah, but all these comments have their point. There is no need for such a little car to have 500 hp. If you put so much power in such a little car you need to make it 4wd or make it somehow drivable. Like this it is just to show off: "Look man, i got soo much power out of a 1,6l machine. I'm so cool." "But can you drive it?" "No." Why don't you make a show and shine car out of it? I would even go so far that i assume a stock Peugeot 106 16v would beat it on a racetrack. The only advantage this 500hp beast would have is driving straight.
Josh Bacon why does everyone keep harping on about putting petrol cars against a bloody tesla we all know by now that the tesla is quick off the mark blah blah blah but it has nothing in common with petrol engined cars except for the obvious wheels doors etc and the tesla will only kill you when a truck crosses your path 😂
no you dont need that, he uses a satch shift(made by satchell engineering in the uk) so he is probably using a BE type gearbox wich comes from something like a peugeot partner. And by the looks of it he dosnt really have a limited slip diff either, so pretty useless build with an over powered engine. But the problem with it not driving well is more the driver cant drive and a banana would probably have better alignment then this thing. So if he would get a proper limited slip diff and a proper alignment he would allready be way more in control. And i can know, i have a turbo powered 106 too, not nearly as much power. But i recon i could have kept up/passed that porsche at the beginning too, and that with only 1/3th the horsepower but with a better alignment en some traction.
bob rosco I agree with the fact that he doesn't have a limited slip differential, and that's a huge mistake with a fwd car, but if you have a 106 too, you know better than I ;-) And thanks for the gearbox, I didn't know :-)
As a proof of concept, this is awesome, and it's nice to see someone enjoying a Peugeot rather than jumping on the anti-Pug bandwagon, but I wouldn't want to go this far with an FWD!
Haha I guess the engineers at Peugeot werent having that much torque in mind when they designed the front suspension geometry. Seems to torque steer like mad!
È ovvio che tanta potenza mette in crisi un automobile cosi piccola e leggera,quindi rimango in attesa di vedere gli sviluppi con un motore meno potente ,soprattutto con un erogazione più rotonda fatta con un turbocompressore più piccolo e che privilegi una migliore possibilità di gestire l insieme,detto tutto ciò complimenti
Super beau boulot, çà a l'air absolument inconduisible hahaha dommage que la puissance ne passe pas , çà tiens pas la piste , çà perd de son charme . Mais Bravo tout de même pour la perf mécano . et le pilotage yahourt aussi
Sure would not want to be next that at full throttle. Kinda funny when you have a car that makes you looks like you have had 10 shots of vodka the race lol. Power does sound solid.
Nick riesci sempre a piazzare le go pro sulle auto più pazze! Ogni volta che accelerava la macchina si spostava di un paio di metri verso destra o sinistra ahahah #torquesteer
One lap in this thing equals one hour at the gym.
ha ha ha ha .. was thinking the same thing .. would be fucked after 15 mins in this
I was knackered just watching it!
Error 404: Traction not found
😂😂😂👍
Ur the man! KKKKKKKKKKKK
error 444
Terrifying lost of control, every gear xD
Ronnie Coleman with chickenlegs
biggest battle against understeer i ever seen
He was definitely having some traction issues on the exit but the car wasn't understeerin. I see a lot of torque steer. 500hp is too much, though - 300 would be better suited for the traction available.
I disagree. With boost-by-gear 500 would be just fine. I dont see it spinning that bad in fourth gear.
the car its ok. just needs some aerodynamic tweaks like lowering etc....

And torque steer
It may as well have 2000 bhp, it's no good if you can't transmit it to the black stuff.
haha black stuff.
Many racing FWD cars out there, with proper sized slicks and rear diff.....
rear diff on a fwd?
Seems legit

this whole engine is simplicity at its finest. Super nice setup.
Needs wider tires but love the build man. seriously still a 1.6l?? Thats insane!
legit the only comment here which is not bashing the driver or the car

Cammed 16v would smoke this on track
Low cost peugeot 106 (not stock) Kicking a 911 turbo wow good job! congrats
I love the exhaust in that position.
Needs 2000 euros invested in suspension and tires
grande..... ha manico.....e un vero pilota oltre a saper elaborare bene le auto.....ottima tenuta di strada grande potenza
Sounds like a two stroke at cold idle...
Used to own a 106 Rallye - great car
Haha what a silly machine! Such a handful, It's all over the place! I love it!
lol nice handling
lol no keks given, Kermit
Twicthy ASF
It has "character" 😂
Must be fun to drive though.
Power without control is useless
Nice! But seems to have an abvious steering geometry problem ...
Questa bomba ci ha fatto battere il cuore domenica!!😊
La bomba ci ha fatto battere il cuore ma il pilota ci ha fatto cadere le palle
Avec autant de puissance sur le train avant tu peux rester en 5ème tout le temps 😱
It's raw. Good for entertaining us.
looks a real handful to drive
good on a drag strip
not on a track
george kliafas.... Sure it would..... With aaaaaaaaaaaaall that grip it has!!!!! 😤
It would probably get beaten by a stock Tesla on a drag strip.
guys a drag strip for fwd category

@@joshbacon8241 lol that's the stupidest BS I've heard all day. Nobody gives a damn about them
What is the second pipe on the hood for? The smaller one in front of the the hood mounted exhaust, is that an external tract for the wastegate alone?
Superbe, apparemment un vrai monstre cela doit être un régal de conduire sur circuit avec cette bombe !!
Why not make it a 4wd car ? With this kind of build you have to buy a race gearbox so you have the choice..
Pizza places CAN make engines though. ;)
The ones that cause the fire in your mouth...

The Gallo 24 obviously :P You'd be awfully thirsty after wrestling this lil animal around the track for an hour lolz
Valentin Lefevre
uno dei piu bei video del genere... che violenzaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Too much power, what a beast. Need sequential box, well done to the builder, respect
🥴
And thats what we call a well tuned RC!
Looks like a handful! And I thought my turbo rabbit walked around.
fun....interesting.... but use-e-less... i mean,if it were a human, it would be a crack-head..
Abdullah Adebayo you killed me bro 😂😂😂😂😂
Hahahaha
A car that has to be driven and not just drove. 10/10 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
LOL I like the car reaction in straight line. Can't imagine to drive so a car!
is this stock?
lol
it has uprated filter for sure
No it isn't , the steeringwheel has been changed xd
:P yes I was wondering about the size
for sure man....completely stockckckckckckckck
As a proof of concept, this is awesome, and it's nice to see someone enjoying a Peugeot rather than jumping on the anti-Pug bandwagon, but I wouldn't want to go this far with an FWD!
Torque steer!! Motor sounds super sweet though. nicely done
Remind me on my old R5 GTT
That understeer! :D
Torque steer takes over big time!
That thing looks SCARY as hell to drive...
More wild than actually usable xD
so good...dont think ul ever get bored lol.very good driving,now thats a toy
how would you stop rain getting in the exhaust if it happens to be raining when you take it for a drive?
People say 'oh this car is an animal'...this car is actually an animal..an angry fucking animal. I, for one, love it. ❤️❤️
Thanks!!
Damn, imagine the power to weight ratio of one of these
che figata pazzesca. gran bella macchina. e guidi benissimo, bel sorpasso.
Nice but he needs 4wd...
Saying balls of steel would be an understatement!
Thanks
"Balls of Steer"
Went from "boring in the straight lines" to "HOLY SHIT THIS CAN'T GO STRAIGHT"
Trop puissante j’ai l’impression pour le gabarit à moins que ce sois là traction qui n’aide pas la voiture
Haha I guess the engineers at Peugeot werent having that much torque in mind when they designed the front suspension geometry. Seems to torque steer like mad!
What kind of camera is her using. Looks amazing
Fact is, this thing eats 911 for breakfast, with or without traction, on the track, a track build 911. That is enough for me.
Wow at the torque steer!
why dislike this awesome car lol

small monster without traction 😁
Can we always think of it as a 106 ;D

A la fin tes bras c'est des chewing gum
this is intense yo!
Cool car, but it's got power understeer for days lol
that is like a little go kart lol looks like a toy going down the track especially at that speed
Great video but two questions;
1. Why would anyone put the exhaust there
2. Why all this power in a FWD
looks fun to drive
voelvo sapere cosa avevi usato per fare le fiamme :) grazie
Abbiamo un carrellino legato dietro alla macchina con una bombola del gas che in rilascio viene iniettato :)
Diego Grassi lol
Sure would not want to be next that at full throttle. Kinda funny when you have a car that makes you looks like you have had 10 shots of vodka the race lol. Power does sound solid.
JESUS for that light car It's too much hp, no traction, props to driver, It definetly takes skill to control it
The amount of Turbo lag :O
Trasto inviable, la efectividad brilla por su ausencia.
Oh my! There's no traction at all! The track for this car is another one. :-)
CHE SPETTACOLO
Nick riesci sempre a piazzare le go pro sulle auto più pazze!
Ogni volta che accelerava la macchina si spostava di un paio di metri verso destra o sinistra ahahah #torquesteer
Si ahaha, su questa non potevo non mettergliela :)
Nick ti ho scritto in privato su fb riesci a rispondermi per favore? Mi servirebbe il video intero grazie
Please explain how a wastegate can be loud? I think you mean dump valve? Either that or I'm sorely confused...
Finally someone who know how to warm an engine...
Thats quite nippy for grannys little shopping car !.
ma che figata !
It looks like it has broken suspension or something lol
Very beautiful hot hatch.A sequential gearbox and a 2.0NA screamer is all this car needs for hillclimb or track.
A lot of work at the wheel to go straight 😂
5:44 - look how unstable it is swerving all over the shop down the straight, compared to the Porsche in front lol
What gear box are you using?
@NM2255 Car HD: someone have specs,photo or video of the fiat tipo at the 2:02 minute? / qualcuno ha foto o video della fiat tipo al minuto 2:02???
mental car well done 🖒
Looks completely uncontrollable! And like it's been stung in the eye by a giant hornet lmao
and why is the steeringwheel on crooked?
It's a monster!!
I never liked nor will I ever like hot hatches.
But this is cool!
make it a 4wd or rwd, and revise the supensions settings... great job.
minimal intercooler plumbing. Pretty neat
Sounds delicious.
I'm wondering if there is enough downforce or something, because it seems very unstable even with large wheels! And nice flames though! :-P
My two favourite words: turbo and 106
what turbo is that? precision 5731?
C'es fun comme jouet ! :D
all over the place round that track
sottosterzo ne abbiamo??
200 cv in meno andava 10 volte piu forte!!
In compenso abbiamo un pilota che più sega non si può,sta sempre con una marcia più bassa e non sa nemmeno tenere le mani sul volante
why the steering wheel are not center ???
Was he left breaking?
che semiassi e cambio hai?
💥💥💥💥 nice!
OMG is this a TU5JP4 1.6 'VTI' ?! :O
