Coolest part of the video for me was right after the door shuts and the car seems to reset, that beautiful blue light comes on and all the systems boot up. So surreal.
If I could go back in time, I'd show this car to Jochen Rindt and see how he drives it. But I think he'd shy away, thinking it was an alien space car from another galaxy! Still, I would love to see him do a few laps in it. He won the GP of Monaco with an obsolete car! The Lotus 72 should have been ready when he showed up at Monaco but Chapman was forced to use a super modified 49 and NOBODY thought Rindt had even the slightest chance of coming in second. But he drove the wheels off the car and took Black Jack Brabham by surprise, pulling off what must have been one of the biggest upsets in the race's history.
+EVOLICIOUS That was genius! I love it & could get used to it. I also love the paddle shift gearbox system too. The prototypes have been using it for a while, but since the GT cars have had it installed, it's a lot easier on these competitors. Of course, paddle shift does come with its own fair share of problems too, but concentration is not one of them since there's no more gear shift handle to look for while looking straight ahead.
+EVOLICIOUS Amazing? The only thing left is for that software to help him steer perfectly in corners and tell him when to throttle and brake, like a virtual racing line It's pathetic I understand that it's a safety measure like a radar, to tell the driver what's going on behind and on his sides, but im pretty sure many records have been established and many races won and many MANY great drivers formed without any single help of that sort. It's utterly pathetic. And as an software engineer i do value the amount of work that goes into all of that, specially the part of recognizing a car and marking it with an arrow. But as a huge racing fan, this kills the sport itself.
João Agnelo Sorry, I misunderstood. Your point (apart from your complete lack of knowledge on the tech these cars have) is essentially that in the earlier days, without the assistance tech, made better drivers with a higher difficulty. I strongly disagree and you should reconsider the difficulty of driving at night in a much more demanding and powerful car than the GT series has ever had. Even with the tech today, these cars are still raw in input and much higher in difficulty than ever before. I suggest you refrain on commenting on things you lack any knowledge of, I makes you look like a complete idiot. Especially when you think being a software engineer has any value to the topic. LOL!
João Agnelo LMAO! I can understand you are having a hard time trying to win an argument you lost the second you decided to comment about something you have no idea about. Next time, ask a question instead of making a statement, you will appear as a moron otherwise. I would certainly love to tell you about ICD tech in the GT3 cars, I'm very involved and well informed in this sport (unlike you), but hey, why not have someone give you a visual tour of why you are a complete moron trying to compared apples to oranges. (/watch?v=kGAHwzz_RgA), (/watch?v=mqAidRjWsyg) the racing channel goes into a lot of detail with the tech in some of their videos, (/watch?v=XGiBwgdR9qk), Also here is some info on the Porsche 991 gt3 ICD (similar to most gt3 setups) cosworth.com/about/case-studies/porsche-991-supercup/.
I would watch the whole race from this POV of it was possible. Who needs a couple of dozen external cams when you can watch this for 24 hours with the volume turned up to 11.
@@adoyaben He does say this POV, which would mean if the camera is from the car itself, not the driver, then it would not be the same. It would have to be from the driver's head or wherever this camera sits. This video but extended. Is that what you mean? Either way, where can you find streams or recordings of those?
@@Herkan97 I meant you can find in car views, I don't think there are many from this point of view because it would be hard to keep a helmet cam running for 24 hours and it's an extra thing to fail.
I even love the fact it identifies cars which are coming up fast - note the yellow arrow on cars in the same class or below, but the red arrow on prototypes coming up behind. There's been some scary crashes at Le Mans in recent years where GT cars just didn't spot a prototype coming up behind them, so this kinda tech is very useful.
Yeah, that gearbox seems to be amazing. I wonder why they didn't use the full potential regarding transmission though. There are some unused RPM left at the end of the oval section.
TonyR03 IMHO i think its due to a max torque around 5500-6000RPM. at those speeds on 6th gear there really is no point stressing the engine further. But what do i know... Maybe its just practice and the car is not set up correctly atm.
ghosthunter2006 Ok, this is a point I didn't think of, I mean it's a 24 h race, the engine should not be overly stressed if it was not useful. I also thought of slipstream and wind from behind but since there were only 1 or 2 shifting lights on in 6 th gear I thought even that wouldn't be enough to reach the limiter. Maybe the lesser fuel usage is also a fact which makes it reasonable to spare some RPM.
Holy crap, that rear view camera is so cool, generates a massive arrow above the nearest vehicle and warns when being passed and on which side, so cool! :D
Legally they have to have outside mirrors but divers look out the rearview mirrors more so this rearview camera is the way to go, it be nice if NASCAR used them.
William Scott That would get too far away from stock cars. Today's stock car racing is already far advanced than the average production car. Rear view cams would only alienate the blue-collar fan base more as rear view cams are somewhat of a luxury. I think this technology is awesome in this racing series as this series boasts advanced technology. But, it might be a bit much for NASCAR. We're as far from true stock cars (for safety and competition reasons) as we can get; let's not push it.
Roy Rki True dat, that's one of the few reasons I'll be buying pCars once it releases on Steam. Just hoping the actual driving and the FFB will be on par with the graphics.
With some manufactures being stingy with letting devs us their branding -coughcoughporshecoughcough- I doubt we'll see anything with this sort of quality in the near future. -flame shield up- For me, the closest thing is iRacing at the moment. Assetto is great and all, but like all sims since the old GTR days, it feels a bit lacking in content.
Sadly people who aren't into motorsports probably wouldn't understand. They would probably say... "Okay... he's just sitting in a car and turning a wheel." My friends would say that all the time and I just shake my head. Lol Hopefully I'll make it into racing and I'll take them to a local race track, get a race trim car, give them some lessons and let them run around the track until they put in an ok lap and the ask how they feel!
For F1 it's the ability to handle fast cars and withstand great G forces. And then there's Le mans, where you do that for 24 hours (if you consider LMP1, or as it stands now, LMPToyota)
Thex Dex actually in truth racing "games" are downgrading to arcade games. If you want to practice your car control at home when not on the race track, you go for a proper racing simulator like iRacing or rFactor or whatnot. those simulators are not really considered games.
Dude it is a big deal in america. just a lot of people actually prefer super bike over car racing. Look it up. I live near laguna seca and we get more people for superbike than gtlm. And the continentel tire gp. And the rolex. Actually nascar is losing fans big time. Your comments pretty uneducated.
+Noel Cotelo you are pretty eneducated for saying my comment is pretty uneducated. It's just a comment not the gospel by any means. If they were to advertise and play it on prime time people would watch. Just have the announcer say that "It's all the big Carmakers facing off on the track with the latest technology 1 race 1 night" just hype it up you know. Lol I think more people would be keen to watch familiar automakers then watch superbikes.... face it man
Man I love these types of races. The cars are beautiful, and I just love the sound of the short straight cut gear shifts! It's literally a symphony to my ears. I hope I get the oppertunity to ride one of these full on racing prototype cars one day.
What amazes me is their ability to alter their braking points depending on traffic, etc. I watched closely and it was not identical any 2 laps in a row. That is remarkable and must require a ton of concentration and understanding of both the car and track.
@NW World of Speed hey I'd love to be a race car driver although I'm already 19 where do you think a good place would be to start I'd like to race gt3, gt2 and maybe even rally car racing. But first I'll work on street then make my way to dirt. You say it's about getting sponsored? How would I go about doing that?
MrDjvas I feel like it’s much harder going into professional motorsport from a street scene. Most professional drivers these days have been doing any sort of motorsport (mainly go-karting) all their life competing in national tournaments and they might get lucky like Hamilton and get picked up by mclaren at the age of thirteen.
@@Adam-rg8bg huh ok you got a point there is a k1 speed go kart track near me in BOSTON not really near but like 1 hour drive. I'll start there and work my way up I appreciate you being nice enough to tell me got any other pointers? In regards to looking for SPONSORSHIP and moving up even after winning the go kart championship?
MrDjvas other than that I guess just invest a lot of money into it and hope for the best. I’m not to sure about karting in the US (I’m guessing you live in the US) than it is in the UK but maybe try enter things like tournaments and just work you way up I guess
Already knowing the outcome of the race never has an effect on the level of angst that bubbles inside me watching these Corvette Driver's Eye videos. Seeing the car pull into the pit for the first time made me feel like a school boy who just got his first bicycle for Christmas. Watching the shift lights, rear view camera & arrows, seeing the 1-2-3 glances while passing, hearing the revs & downshifts, it all just grabs hold of something on the inside of me.
his steering corrections under acceleration are awesome, but that LMP car that slid by and still made the corner right in front of him; that was impressive!
This c7.r is ridiculous, the last generation blew past Porsche, aston, and Ferrari. And now this beast?!?. It just show how dominant Vette is not only in technology and development but just a genius at engineering and skill at the wheel. Its pure science. Corvette will always be on top
Fantastic the view the sound amazing. Watching the interaction between the different classes and most of the skill of the drivers is unbelievable great stuff!
Thank you for uploading this. It's always been my dream to be in the cockpit or even behind the wheel of a car like this and you've made that possible.
Great vid keep up the good work exactly what a gear head like me wants too see the was especially awesome because I am a huge corvette fan. amazing sounds from all the cars especially the corvette.
I like how with the rear view camera it has an arrow pointing out the cars either coming up on the C7.R or that they just pasted with what looks like a Corvette crest that's beem slightly bent to look more like an arrow pointing down at the cars. It looks like the arrow changes colors for cars coming up on the C7.R while the cars he has passed are a different color. Wow, do the drivers of today have technology that makes it easier than in the past to race like a pro!
This car sounds GREAT!!! I wanna know who are the 21 people who gave a thumbs down? If you have a problem with this corvette...you've got a problem with yourself!! LOL!
My favorite car in Assetto Corsa. that car handling and behavior is very balanced. The model and the sound are also beautiful. Such a great experience. Love it! Thanks for sharing.
The Rolex 24hrs of Daytona is unparalleled in the world of racing. It's grueling 24hrs / 740 laps and 2637.7 miles is second only to the 24hrs of LeMans. This years 2015 Corvette Racing Team was relentless and feared when there yellow & black #3 & #4 C7.R Z06 Corvettes rolled out of the trailer and into pit lane. It was thrilling to in the pits and exciting to watch this truly AMAZING Corvette Racing Team take the checkered flag. Congratulations to #3 Jan Magnussen, Antonio Garcia, Ryan Briscoe / #4 Oliver Gavin, Tommy Milner, Simon Pagenaud and the entire C7.R team.........Ty Woodhall / Bondurant
Honestly, you can't compare the two. The 'Ring has a whopping 176 turns and is so massive that it surrounds a village! Daytona is a walk in the park compared to the 'Ring.
Must be the 5th time I find myself watching this video. Something about night races that amazes me, and I'm so happy that there is POV footage of these races. You really feel lonely in that car. Different from when you watch on TV.

That car looks like the best office in the world.

it actually has air conditioning and cool suit, and the ride is softer then you'd expect.
Yo mad funny

still one of the best onboard videos to this day! the hidden cuts like at 3:00-3:01 are also so freakin clean that you dont even notice them at first
By far one of my favorite onboard cams yet for any racing style racing. That car is gorgeous
This camera angle is so awesome, it almost feels like I'm in the car.
Exactly! This is the first onboard video that follows where the driver's head is looking, which is awesome
Anyone that says racecar drivers aren't athletes needs to watch this video and get schooled.

My favorite Corvette Racing Car of all time baby🤩
This was amazing I’ve always been looking for such a good onboard gt3 race, thanks for recommending 7 years later CZcams!!
OH THIS IS WONDERFUL!!!!! Thanx to whoever shared this.
future driving simulator with oculus rift :D
Project cars hopefully :)

@@ukarlu Apparently not. AC is better VR. And iRacing is just pure SIM racing. P Cars isn't bad now, but it could have been better.
Holy crap, this is awesome!
That perspective never gets old. Also that sweet sounding motor. I love it!
Great to be able to take a peek at what it's like to drive these cars. Thank you!
Has got to be one of the greatest automotive videos ever
wow very cool video i like this behind the scenes side you really get to see some of what a racer's experience is during a race.
Thank you for uploading this. It's always been my dream to be in the cockpit or even behind the wheel of a car like this and you've made that possible.
This thing sounds beautifully Aggressive. And this POV is amazing. Thank You!
Great vid keep up the good work exactly what a gear head like me wants too see the was especially awesome because I am a huge corvette fan. amazing sounds from all the cars especially the corvette.
This car is a beast. It was just too early for the new 'vette to be out on a track. Better luck next year!
Brilliant!
Thank you Drive and Corvette Racing.
I wish this was delivered from every race... and longer. Thank you.
That rear view camera is so smart! Looks like its come straight out of a video game!
Love the augmented graphics on the rear view camera, overlaying arrows in different colours depending on the proximity. Neato
Epic, just epic! What a sound from that engine, gives me goosebumps.
6000 time better anything I have ever seen on tv, great work guys
lol...Something soothing about watching these vids, whether it's from the driver's point of view or from the passenger side.
Awesome! Make more videos like that!!! Love your channel)
I was sitting here, watching 16 minutes of this onboard cam rec, completely silent trying not to lose any moment. Incredible footage.
this was incredibly relaxing to watch, he makes it look so friggin easy
daytona 24 hours the only 24 hour endurance race that is completley surrounded with flood lights
+MrNotagoodtime Daytona = Nascar = No light :) Its a Nascar Track and Nascar don't have light :P
@@SPARKYYT 3 yars late
Oh well it's Oval and Roval ofc the track can be easily covered with lights.
People in this thread: Complaining about modern safety efforts like track lights and rear camera radar icons.
I like how with the rear view camera it has an arrow pointing out the cars either coming up on the C7.R or that they just pasted with what looks like a Corvette crest that's beem slightly bent to look more like an arrow pointing down at the cars. It looks like the arrow changes colors for cars coming up on the C7.R while the cars he has passed are a different color. Wow, do the drivers of today have technology that makes it easier than in the past to race like a pro!
This is awesome. Watched the whole thing which was surprisingly entertaining. Great POV and love the technology in the cars!
Thank you so much for doing this /Drive. This was truly amazing to watch!
Awesome corvettes are Badass cars :-)
This car sounds GREAT!!! I wanna know who are the 21 people who gave a thumbs down? If you have a problem with this corvette...you've got a problem with yourself!! LOL!
Where it all started for me. Love this video so much!
My favorite car in Assetto Corsa.
that car handling and behavior is very balanced. The model and the sound are also beautiful. Such a great experience. Love it!
Thanks for sharing.
The Rolex 24hrs of Daytona is unparalleled in the world of racing. It's grueling 24hrs / 740 laps and 2637.7 miles is second only to the 24hrs of LeMans. This years 2015 Corvette Racing Team was relentless and feared when there yellow & black #3 & #4 C7.R Z06 Corvettes rolled out of the trailer and into pit lane. It was thrilling to in the pits and exciting to watch this truly AMAZING Corvette Racing Team take the checkered flag. Congratulations to #3 Jan Magnussen, Antonio Garcia, Ryan Briscoe / #4 Oliver Gavin, Tommy Milner, Simon Pagenaud and the entire C7.R team.........Ty Woodhall / Bondurant
Unparalleled? You mean not counting the 24 Hours of Le Mans?
Your forgetting the 24hr of nurburgring, thats alot more tough than the daytona 24hr, but thats just my opinion
I agree, Nurburgring just kills the cars with the relentless elevation changes, Daytona is hard as hell but not as hard as Nurburgring.
Honestly, you can't compare the two. The 'Ring has a whopping 176 turns and is so massive that it surrounds a village! Daytona is a walk in the park compared to the 'Ring.
I've had around 35 hours spent in this car in Forza 6 and im surprised how well they have nailed almost every detail of this car in game! Amazing job!
Nice job
Came here for my late night Corvette fix since there are no Corvettes at LeMans this year. I was not disappointed. Thanks!
I could watch this all day and night....
Just freaking awesome. Loved watching the new C7R just ran past Porches and Ferrari's. Anyone know where the C7R's finished?
sadly the cars had gearbox overheating issues and finished fifth, its to be expected with new cars, they will fix the issues and be ready for Sebring.
I'm sure there were some jaws dropping however for a completely new car, to do THAT well right out of the gate.
o ya for sure, i bet the sound was amazing live.
Love the helmet cam...wish there was more footage like this.
What a beast! Love this video. Thank you for posting.
This is awesome to watch and probably very demanding to do. Can't believe all the focus that goes into a race. Thanks for sharing.
@14:46 I feel ya brother. Story of my life!
This is what I believe to be the best In-Car EVER!
This is one of the most beautiful things i've ever seen in my life.
Must be the 5th time I find myself watching this video. Something about night races that amazes me, and I'm so happy that there is POV footage of these races. You really feel lonely in that car. Different from when you watch on TV.
