@@eagleone5456 they're real racers, with very deep pockets - it is fantastic to see these classics being driven so hard. Doesn't sliding and drifting on crossply tyres look so much more fun than grip, grip, grip, spin on radials?
@Reee Flex I am led to believe that Goodwood only accepts cars with a provenance, that they are the original chassis, frames, et cetera, and have raced or could have raced at Goodwood in the expected period. They may allow some exactingly period correct replicas. Yes, with racing, there are parts that get broken and fixed, but the core bits of the cars are still the same.
@Reee Flex Bullshit ! not in Godwwod in a race "some" updated cars are allowed in the goodwood festival of speed. @@StarkRaven59 @Stark Raven you are 99.9% except "They may allow some exactingly period correct replicas" AFAIK this is only allowed if there is "no running original left".
So entertaining! This type of racing highlights the contrast of lightness and less horsepower versus brute force. Lotus running CC motors lacked the torque and high end HP vs Ferrari engines, but their lightness, lower CG, and reduced polar moment forces made them very competitive. Chapman was a physics genius, not just an amazing design engineer. He combined the two disciplines to create a new dynamic art.

I'm always amazed that they race so hard in such rare and expensive cars. Are the drivers the owners?
That's what I love about these races, they absolutely send these cars. Each of which cost more than I'll ever make in my life.

The drivers are not always the owners. Sometimes.
More entertaining than modern cars!
The track absolutely suits these cars too. I imagine modern cars racing here would be processional.
that vintage Lotus looks like a car from the Speed Racer cartoons

How much fun it must be to race those cars!
These cars have no assists and theyre rly expensive...idk
@@tejj5957 then just make one in the modern equivalent with no assist and doesn't cost half a million dollars.
@@s2korpionic those are called caterham's
What beautiful cars, the drifting techniques are incredible!
The Lotus is just beautiful! Better racecar than the Ferrari, I'd say.... 👌🏻
Back in the real world the Ferrari would have flushed that Lotus so fast the driver wouldn't have heard the swirl.
So cool!
Lotus not sliding Ferrari sliding that seems right.
Cross ply tyres! 😳 Did I hear that right?
Such a cute lotus haha
