DOMINATION | Mid Ohio Part 1
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 вер 2024
- Last year, I blew up two engines and only finished half a lap. This year, I'm looking for redemption. Can I finish a race this time? Can I podium? Can I win in dominating fashion with zero pressure from the Corvettes? Damn right I can! Part 1 from Mid Ohio, my home track. Practice, qualifying and Race 1 with data. Unfortunately no live stream from this event so no external camera or commentary from Kyle Heyer or Greg Creamer. Enjoy the extra data to make up for it though.

Literally freight trained everyone with 202hp 😂😂 what a killer build and driver
To be fair, the corvettes are also detuned and run a similar power to weight. Just a lot more power and weight than my car.
@@EricKutilRacing Yup certain tracks will fair better with Eric's car and others might be better at other tracks. Kickass Driving. Your living the dream right now. Maybe in a few years I might dip my toes in GLTC with my FRS.
I love how he documents and edits the videos.
Was out at lime rock and saw the car, had to sub. Haltech gauge overlay is sweet on the video
Thank you for the sub!
This channel deserves 100,000 subscribers ❤
Maybe one day!!! Thanks for the support buddy!
what ever Jackie is at :)
grand turismo vibes with some scenes... nice job 👍👍
Dude these videos are so addicting. The new on-screen telemetry is awesome! I do not know if it is a coincidence, but I can see the IAT's climbing when you have dirty air from another car directly in front of you. So cool!
Edit: I was so nervous they were going to pull your W after the dyno, glad you made it. Congrats on P1!
Thanks for the positive feedback! Yeah my intake feeds directly from the front bumper. So in the draft, it's definitely picking up warmer air
videos keep getting better. i equally enjoy the tech-shop-build videos and the coverage from the races. good stuff dude
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK ERIC!!!!!!!.
I have loved those cameras since i was a kid, watching the suspension works is pure art, one (if not) of the most important components and tunning on a car, whatever is the use, daily, work, racecar.
Man, i love your content, is easy for me to pick the best content creator regarding racing, BY EONS of distance you're the best, period.
EDIT: LOVE THE DATA ON SCREEN!!!
I appreciate that buddy! I love those unique cams too, especially when you see how the setup is working. It's a good tool and fun to watch!
I always had your channel saved to watch your videos… after I binged watched all your videos. Now I have to wait for new uploads 😭
This has quickly become one of my favorite UA-cam channels, wicked driving your consistency is insane lol and congrats on the win!
I appreciate that my dude! Thanks!
Love the b roll and just track convos / vibe - these vids are great man! Keep em comin!
Dude such good content. Great blend of track time, behind scenes, great production value, not obnoxious tiktok style try-hard vibes to over sensationalize things, and just an amazing car and driving. Congrats on the win after so much continued hard work.
Outro was a nice touch👌🏼
I am still impressed by your driving. A pleasure to watch and listen to. the Civic is still amazing. Always follow through when there are problems. You are truly an example (sorry for my English, French fan 😅😅)
I appreciate the kind words, thank you! Glad to share the good races and struggles!
MERCI de partager vos aventures, c'est un réel plaisir de regarder vos vidéos!!! Vive Honda!!
THANK YOU for sharing your adventures, it's a real pleasure to watch your videos!!! Long live Honda!!
Thank you!!!
just sat through and watched the whole thing, very captivating and nice job
Same here. Kept having work and life stuff come up, wanted to sit and watch it uninterrupted. Worth the 3 week wait.
Great driving as always. Love watching these types of videos.
Been waiting for a new vlog and all I can say is, it's well worth the wait, pal!
As always, I really love watching the video so much.^^
I appreciate the kind words, thank you!
@@EricKutilRacingAnytime and keep up the awesome work! (^_-)
Congrats on the win Eric! Nice racing out there!
Thank you!
Lime rock went well too eh
🤣🤣 don't spoil it yet ha
All good, make video soon! lol
Purely Amazing content
I appreciate it. Thank you!
Good to see u use heel and toe again and not the autoblip! U definitely got the skills for it👌. And race 1 was in Gapistan😅.
You'll be disappointed soon then haha
@@EricKutilRacing aaah nooo😅
Such great content. Love it
Your water temps are an inspiration
Yeah man, so freaking good. You can thank the massive chase Bays Nissan Tucked Radiator
Man that Ktuned car has some balls down the back straight. I was hoping he didn't get pass in the first laps. I don't know if you would have been able to get pass him.
Yeah mid ohio is a tough track to pass on when you're slower in top end speed. Unfortunately for him, he had transmission issues all weekend
Just found your channel. Also a Buckeye. These full race vlogs are amazing. Love seeing the highs and lows of racing. Thanks for the uploads.
Thanks for the sub!
Well dang I live like 3 mins from mid Ohio ! Right down from the resivore! That’s crazy!
What a thriller!!!! Car is great you drove phenomenal 🤟
Been waiting for this.
It's here!!
@@EricKutilRacing thank you. Get them
Im here!
What's up!
@@EricKutilRacing it's been a pleasure to see your build and race. Keep it up brother 💪
Great race Eric the car seems to be happy as well !💯🤙🤙🔥
🤘🤘Awesome to see you keeping the momentum. Excited for part II!
Hell yeah!
Congratulations both hockey and this.
Haha thanks man! It was a good start to the weekend!
Doin big thing Eric! Car looks great.
Appreciate it!!
Doing close to quali speed lap after lap. Mental. Your Civic might just be an endurance racecar.
Yeah man. I was dialed in! Endurance would be fun honestly.
You're doing amazing job with those videos! Pleasure to watch! Also congrats on the win
Thanks so much!!
i LOL'd with the hit marker on the boards at the hockey game xD
EDIT: domination was a well-selected title, holy moly. I don't think I've seen a runaway like that before in GLTC.
Awesome stuff...congrats on the win...great channel 😎
Thanks for watching!!
Nice one as usual, Eric. Next time I'm in the midwest, I'll try to come to an event.
Just realised I've been watching all your vids and haven't subbed. Great content and you are a joy to listen and watch. Always look forward to your vids. Any insight content in the future?
Congrats Eric! Man I love how informative your videos are. What are you using to get the Haltech dash on your Videos?
Thanks buddy! Glad to share the info. It's a custom made template within race render 3 that I created to look like the haltech dash.
data overlay is awesome. How did you do it?
It's pretty complicated haha. I use race render 3 and created a custom template and a transparent image of the ic7 display. All gauges added manually and reference the ecu data
Well done Eric !
Thank you!
Great job 👏
Those oil temps are crazy , it’s wild what a k series can handle .
That's with an extremely large oil cooler too. My sensor placement is on the sandwich plate though, could be misleading and reading the out flow, (pre cooler). I don't know for sure tbh
@@EricKutilRacing when you went to the larger oil cooler did you notice any significant oil pressure loss? Combating oil temps on my car and scared of going to , to big pf a cooler
Not now chief, I'm in the fucking zone.
🤣🤣🤣
Some driver-cam overlayed with the audio of the announcers talking about your race domination would be welcome in a future video. Keep up the good work driving and filming/editing.
That's how I always edit them. However, there was no live stream or announcers for this event.
@@EricKutilRacing Yup, kind of figured that might be the case. Specifically I meant this new camera setup pointing at you, overlayed with the audio - it would just be a boss ass moment.
Oh yeah man, definitely!
Awesome vid. What's the weight like on this car?
Around 2700 lbs with driver.
If tht happens to me I would be crying I would be having tunnel vision seeing them passing by but the part wen ur car stops going it reminds me the movie cars3 wen McQueen was racing n tht black car passed him n he started slowing down and the others cars start going by.
Try and see during practice if pulling the e-brake will help the car rotate around smaller corners if you have enough speed
That's not how that works haha. Plus brake was deleted a long time ago
Great run!!! What are you using for the overlay on the incar video?
Custom hand made template in race render 3
@@EricKutilRacing excellent, looks great!! thanks for the reply
Dude sick driving! Is flatfoot shifting allowed? I think it will help you shave a tenth ot two
Yes and stay tuned for the next event!
@@EricKutilRacing always 😎
Madman and the white and green mean-machine...lol
Let's goooo!!
Wheels look good on car man
Thanks man! The Mag Blue pops in the sunlight!
So they dyno your car if you win to make sure you don’t got a cheater car?
@@mahp3039 yup exactly! They'll also dyno anyone that's suspicious, not just race winners.
Sounds like the motorcycle 300 and 400 cc bike class lol. All the cheater bikes in 300 and 400 class but they don’t dyno them in Colorado. We call them the cheater bikes!
That’s cool they dyno people can’t cheat
Hey Eric, are you tapping the brakes on the straights to make sure they're there before you need them?
That and firm up the pedal due to knock back. I made a video about it before this one. I made some improvements and it helped reduce the amount of a soft pedal. It's mainly a habit now
@@EricKutilRacing so I'm prepping my FC for wheel to wheel. I just fitted a Wildwood pedal set and MK60 abs (not active yet) would you recommend me doing this? I still need to go do some test laps and I'm pretty solid with left foot braking.
curious - do you ever use left foot braking in a race?
No, I've never really gotten used to it but also never felt the need to honestly.
@@EricKutilRacing nice, the car balance is amazing
Even when they f....up, they still continue to impede your lap....
It is what it is lol. Dealing with 60 cars is always going to cause issues.
@@EricKutilRacing just one is enough to ruin your attempt....was in the zone while watching you being in the zone😅, great job
Thanks man! Yeah, I was going to cut most of race 1 out because not much happened besides banging off killer laps. However, I enjoyed showing what it feels like to be in the zone and left it all
@@EricKutilRacing it was great, just my impression but does the car struggles a little with corner entry/mid understeer? you got the most out of it anyway
Crazy how dominating a race so much that it made for a boring video 😂
Haha leading is bad for content lol
Unless ur like me and just driving in the mirrors 🤦🏻♂️
"Kutil Kontent" today? It's going to be a good day!
🙌🙌
You forgot to put the word "TOTAL" in the title
Trueeee lol
Do you have a sponsor that helps with parts? If you don’t mind me asking
Haha yeah I have quite a few great sponsors that supply specific parts
@@EricKutilRacing I want to enter the racing world, but not sure how to pick up a sponsor. Do you just reach out to them? & pray or is there a way about going about it
hybrid racing isn't his team name, it's the main sponsor, they're a honda performance parts shop. and it's not easy at all to get sponsors. You need to already have a good car and experience that would be worth their interest, it's like becoming an employee, you need to have a good resume
Rev limiter?
8400 but I keep it under 8200 usually
@EricKutilRacing I don't know how you have your car set up, but I would think that as soon as you went into 2nd gear the rev limiter would've caught it.
In any case great driving and great vid.
The rev limiter won't prevent a money shift because your wheels will force the transmission and engine to spin higher
@@EricKutilRacing thanks for the teaching point.
but but.. i thought RWD was sooo much superior too FWD? whats going on here?
🤣🤣
