I don't think this is weird at all, literally looks like an extremely normal pikes peak car 😂
Awesome to see Kobus(looks like Kobus) is still following his passion for building cars! I've known Kobus from Primary School, and he was passionate since then, building and racing gokarts and moving from there to bigger cars, and now these insane cars!! Well done Kobus!!
What an amazing car! This car deserves to be at Goodwood!
it would be fun to see it at Goodwood but it will never break the current record, a car-thing that sucks to the ground is normal now
Awesome, Please take this to Nürburgring. Love to see her lap times there...!!!
I love the wing in the front. Makes me think of the 6 wheel Tyrrell in the sense of strangeness. It's a talking point.
Front wings like those aren't really new. There were some front wheel drive time attack cars that use a similar setup, it was just a matter of time that non-FWD cars do it too.
What's the purpose of the front wing?

We just Need ANC out so we can continue to to build this beautiful country we need to work together to enjoy everything that is South African
Absolutely I agree with you 100% vote EFF 2024
You secretly mean black people.
@@_mfanamfanaVlogz 😂
Or you could just leave
@@danhobart4009 you see why white South Africans can just leave because South Africa is not really their homes it was a place that they came steal it's wealth and now things are hard they want to run away...I am a African born of the soil I love my country i
I remember seeing that R35 in person back in 2020 at the Emerald Speed Fest,it's one menacing monster of a car
They should run that thing at Pikes Peak... Looks like it can run the numbers 🔥🔥
sadly on Pikes Future only EV cars see a chance because of the low oxygen levels
@@Illegallegaleaglenot necessarily, even at only 70% power this car would have more than enough power. Just tune accordingly
looks like...lol
@@Illegallegaleagle yup, very different course, this is at sea level
@@morefaster8169 that is factually wrong, sorry
This GTR screams aerodynamic. Nice. Can't wait to buy a GTR one day.
Ive always loved this car. That wing is brilliant. Now they have improved it so much. Its ACE!!
I would love to see this at pikes peak or some time attack events 🤘🔥
😳 I thought this was overkill, but these guy says it works!!! They have been in this game for loooooong, so obviously they know what they are doing!!! Takes a lot of time and money to make it work right!! Badass!!!
Awesome that this is built here, must have been a huge budget!
3:46 He said “honeycomb” valve springs, did he mean ‘beehive’ valve springs? If not I got this crazy idea in my head what ‘honeycomb’ valve springs would look like. I really like the hubcaps.
Well done guys!!
Nice to hear these guys talk. They know their stuff.
Wow what a car!
Outrageously wild❤
This Thing is Insane!
Insane Gtr! Would love to see this car at WTAC or Tsukuba
9:21 That road is bumpier than it looks!
looks like a pikes peak special💪
As Despatch n kar was! But I approve! Crazy engineering!
Very considerate to pedestrian safety
Downed pedestrians are funnelled into the turbo for more power... 😈
One of the most amazing cars ever created
U can see clearly the difference in stability… car don’t bounce anymore. Great work
it reminds me of Chris Rado's Scion TC with that front aero
I love when the sound of the turbo is higher than the engine
Interesting comments, 1) Pikes Peak is a different course, 2) the Goodwood record is unlikely to be beaten without a very special vehicle.
Saw that gtr in a tiktok, that thing is insane
I'm really curious to see what this car has got in Tsukuba circuit
Y’all should be real proud of building such a wicked car.
✊🏾. Badasss!!!
Could you guys reach out to Toyota SA and ask them if they're considering the Tundra pro TDR for the local market since it's being confirmed for Australia which is also a Right Hand drive market.?
front wing reminds me of world racings scion tc
2:09 I thought this was an RC Car on the Thumbnail! 😂👌
Wow
That was some careful driving. But the hardware was really good and carried the day! There was nothing that other GTR could've done to win.
5:57 ieh, dju areh poronawnzinin wrright
VR38DETT ❤❤❤
Till those break lights are there it's GTR
Crazy. If new McMurtry was competing it would smash the record's aswell as not having huge oversized wings front and back. Gets more downforce standing still. All sic cars but fella's. I could never build but would love to drive. Avagud1
May not like it but that’s what peak performance looks like.
Really enjoy the "low tech" aero approach.
39 secs. Cool.
Wat n monster.
Pretty much all standard cars look rediculous,add some of your own flavour and people get jelous and they don't even know why.
Sick car man.
Sport isn’t a beauty contest 👍🇦🇺❤️
Looks like a normal pikes peak car tbh, not ugly in the least.
What would be the benefit of using this over say a GT3 race car with a bit more power ?
Sebastian Loeb, hold my beers
also, as someone that grew up in za, I sort of like the engineer being uncomfortable explaining stuff, I knew people like him when I was young.
The car won the King of the Hill shootout, it didn't win it's actual race class. Reghard Roets won the class in this BB Motorsport GT-R with a 40.565 second run. This car placed 2nd with a 42.214 second run in the class standings. In the KotH shootout this car clocked 39.877, which was faster than the class finals. The BB Motorsport GT-R set a time of 38.045 seconds in Quali 3, making it the fastest car of its kind up the hill on the weekend, and ever. Without the aero.
Chris
I always loved your work but please bud report the facts right . Franco scribante racing is the ultimate official record holders with a 38.10 in 2022 .
Whatever u do in Qauli runs does not count for shit . The scribante team had issues on Saturday, but dont forget they posted a 38.7 on sunday (unofficial) in a qauli run . The class final doesn't mean anything to them, so they boosted the car low to see what the road can take . The king of the Hill is the deciding race that separates the men . As much as we love Regard and Bb motorsport, they could not handle the pressure and made the mistakes same as scribante did in 2021 . FYI, the wing is there to stay . Be sure the scribante car will break the records again . Those guys are professionals at their game . Keep up the good work
@@cobusjonker6805 if its timed then surely it counts for something. I assume they did it without a wing creating what looks like 600+kg of downforce. Or did they?
The qualifications rounds are only timed so it can get u into the final run of your class and the final top ten of the king of the Hill shoot-out. Only in the class final and Koh shoot-out your time would be stated as a record. This is what makes this event so special and keeps the people on the edge of their seats . In 2019, scribante did a 38.5 in the qauli runs, but only his last run of Koh was recorded as a record, although it was a 39 .1 and almost dark
Apologies if I came across rude . Was definitely a dog fight till the end, and the respect between Franco scribante racing and Bb motorsport is huge. Incl the 2 drivers #Respect
Damn son I love that SA accent
Yo dawg we heard you like wings!
They were so busy thinking about if they could they never stopped to think about it they should....
South Africa syand up and be counted
That accent is so good, but so strange to have class 👍🏻
Video starts at 8:45
That GTR that came second knows why he lost , he didnt have a wing in the front 🙂
It only came second in the shootout, it won it's class. It also set a faster time up the hill in qualifying for an unofficial Simola record. Without the wing 😎
@@chriswall4304 Geez thats impressive !!! Thanks for the info 🙂
Do you have unlimited rules on the aerodynamics. With your large wings, why don’t you connect it to the lower wishbone suspension. Is it against the rules like in F1 when it was banned in 1960’s.
tube chassis with a gtr body on top.
Can I ask why were there 2 door sportscars in a saloon class?
read the regs
@@hellospacemanok can I find that on the Simola Hillclimb website?
@@hellospaceman You could have kept quiet.
@@CC_SA yes
@@KhanyisoMapuma no.
"Wildy modifed" is a different car with the shape of the GTR hahah. It is massive tho. I wish I could see this compared in actual price in development with and F1 and see and f1 climb the hill. I know it is not fair since the F1 is ment to be run in 1 atm but maybe a bit of mod there and see if it generates more down force than this car in this race and if that benefits it somehow or not enough
DEAR GOD PLEASE DON'T LET THIS START A FRONT SPOILER TREND.
Tea tray on front and rear
I think it needs more wings... 😏
Would be great to see it run at WTAC
it looks like a video game.
is it me?
les sobraba un alerón y dijeron pues se lo pongo alante
The Batmobile has left the chat.
is it anything that a gtr can't do wow I get sick every time I see one breaking some records are one in person since I sold my 09 8 months ago due to harder to get part for the 09 to 2011 getting a 2012 on up
those numbers are ridiculous
you keep mentioning high horsepower but don't name a single number, why?
It’s probably proprietary information. I would guess around it’s north of 900hp
Next thing you know they will have rudders like an airplane
Lots of stuff wiff regards to this rockspider car hey.
Salut my friend super car . super video subscribe subscribe .
At this point why not just fly a plane to the finish line?😅
Jokes aside that is one very fast picnic table.
Because he would have to slow down to land at the finish line! lol
@@jonclarke9929 Point taken!
pike peak hmmmm you think it can make it that was fast but peaks goes higher its that damn lack of air
🎉good one
It's a bit much to say it looks ridiculous, Hill Climb cars have had front wings for decades!
Poster car
One pothole and it's over
they can laugh at it in the pit lane, but who's laughin from the podium?
If it works, why not.
This car got 3 spoiler.
Scuderia Scribante France and an italian flag?
Ofc its not the drag. its a time attack
Why record at 25 fps? Microstutters.
I think it lacks downforce.
Did he say this car has 3000 horsepower
No, he said the transmission can take that much.
It's not GTR anymore 😂 it's just looks like it 😂 broo..!!
Hate that this is a left hand drive GTR
Guess since its a race car, it won't be registered on the road , and possibly they got it cheaper than buying a local rhd
@@AHMEDMOOSAJI They have paid R5 million for it, imported it about 8 years ago (specially build for this)
Even if that double front wing works... I'd get rid of it because it's laughable
So what does it take to have a GTR like this? Being privileged beyond measure. But cool to see South Africans building world class quality.
Monsters shouldn't be pretty. The front wing works
Maybe, wonder if its been in a wind tunnel
@@mm_____ no checkered flag or stopwatch in a tunnel 😋. Setting records is better than impressive tunnel measurements.
So it's not a wildly modified GTR then....
This title was worth something until they paved it. Now, BFD.
Is this a computer game or what
Not a real GTR... But faarkin quick
zeffirs
'we are building the wildest most powerfull cars in the world'
lmao, no you're not.
can I move your country?...I love hill climbing race...I quite hard to get permission from my mother to move to others country, some time people even call me gurdian dog for my family...I need blue ID citizens not as immigrant....I'm like GTR my families the reason they can proud all the times, how I'm gonna deal with this situation I don't know.
