what always impresses me with drivers of old eras is they take a hand off the wheel to throw a switch or change a gear etc at 190mph with minimal power steering!
You get used to steer with the whole body. I took off the belt of the PS on my 93 sentra with wider and softer tyres than factory. I worked as a delivery like that, while riding you don't notice much but the tight parking, oh that was a training on its own.
Its no wonder he looks dicey. I just read there on this run the turbo wastegates were stuck shut so the engine was producing a lot more power than it should have. he made it to 229mph on the mulsanne between the chicanes!
Guys... On this lap, his wastegate didn't open... Turbo was in absolute full power, this guy didn't cared, goes full throttle anyway and destroyed the speed record. And at this day, no one didn't compete this.
The car went from 800 hp to 1100 hp and became an uncontrollable demon that only that driver on that historic day could control and break all records disobeying the orders of his superiors. Incredible
Regardless if it was making more power or not that thing is was extremely tight. Couldn’t imagine driving something at that speed for hours at a time that beat your hands, arms up and fought you like an old antique tractor in a bumpy field
Con el turbo roto con 1.100 caballos y aun así tuvo los huevos de conducirlo para clasificarse. Se nota que apenas podía con el carro después de ver tanto contra volanteo incluso en 3° o 4° marcha.

Pure racers.
When your life is in one hand, you have a firm grip.

I had a look see earlier, his lap time would have put him 5th on the grid at the 2022 race 😳

The lap record and top speed record have both been broken since
@@B__L the top speed record hasn't, the r90ck still holds the chicane top speed record
@@deniableorion4880What speed did he clock in at before the chicane?
@@mynameismud278as mark blundell said in an interview iirc it was 386 kph
Magic Mark Blundell (24 years old!) and what has got to be one of my favourite onboards of all time!
It all nearly goes pear shaped on the 1st corner but he does brilliantly to keep the car on the road!
Keeping a beast like that on the track during 24h is just crazy...
Eso fue en la clasificación pero en la carrera no le fue muy que muy bien
The R90CK Didn't finish the race sadly...
During qualification, the car was able to reach something like 1000 hp, making it the most powerful car only on ICE
Not even remotely close. The BMW Formula 1 engines of 1986 could exceed 1,400 horsepower in qualifying trim.
Why would you drive something like this on ice though??
@@oonmm ICE means internal combustion engine.
@@F-Man lol
This was probably more than that. From what has been said the engine's wastegates were stuck shut so it was making a lot more power than normal
God that car looks a handful, he's fighting the wheel all the way, not like some onboard footage i've seen
Apparently the wastegates on the turbos were stuck open so the car was producing massive power in places it shouldn't have been.
i heard rumors at this time team communication was under tension and just cause everything was already tested,
blundell went stupid reckless.

2:10 porpoising
That's the quality of public roads for you
The 1990 lemans no 24 nissan had a malfunctioning waste gate which fed her all the ponys estimated 1000+
Mis respetos para el piloto que huevos
termino de ver el video de Gustingorriz y en la lista que está a la par del video me aparece de primero este video
driver has balls of steel
En la parte inferior del parabrisas, de ambos lados, pueden verse claramente los testiculos del piloto salir a ambos lados de la carrocería 😆
jesus alot of understeer and it's bumpy as hell :D
Thats insane!

Carro do lendario grupo c atingiam 400 km por hora muita potencia.
Holy S**t. That's what I call race driving...

wow that car is a handful. What a rocket though. 1000hp++
Nissan R90CKS!!!!!!
Unbelievable
Mono steering wheel
Sonhe com os anjos primo Stefano
it looks like he's beating the car around the track
To me it looks like the car is beating him around the lap xD
No aero, maximum power . I hope the racing setup was easier to drive!
These cars had a lot of aero. It's all ground effect
is it a bird? is it a plane? nah, its a nissan xD
no hizo un tiempo mas rapido por el peso de los huevos del piloto 🗿🗿
Hay q tener huevos para manejar a ese enjendro de las tinieblas del gr c con 1100hp y a mas de 360 kmh nisiquiera un f1 llega a esa velocidad
Throw down
