“Koenigsegg just released an exhaustive analysis of what went wrong when the One:1 they were preparing to set a record lap on the Nürburgring crashed in testing.”

The transmission is behind the engine (duh, I know), and has the diff and outputs for the front axles built into it, so it had to be put way up there. Almost all Audis are this way. Also why pretty much all Audis understeer like crazy.

Hmmmmmm, still doing the math on this. BRB

This article is pure gold! Your balls must weigh a metric fuckton! Thank you so much for writing this, Robb. PPIHC is on my bucket list, though now it’s moved a few spots higher.

Great driving, great writing. You’ve got another fan to follow your racing career and cheer you on.

Ummmm, yeah, about that.

The problem is that they would lose a massive amount of performance, both power and economy.

I was just about to say something about this! But then again, I always claim I didn’t see something because I was there.

Can we give some sort of penalty to the official for not having all of his gear on?!

Exactly, it’s likely that is what they were testing. Brake bias and ABS tunes. Rears locked up way before the fronts and there wasn’t much the drive could do after that.

Ha, you and me both! I hated standing that post, and the housing gate! I just don’t get how nobody was able to hit the ballards in time?!?!

That guy’s got some good photos, too bad he’ll never shoot for a major car manufacturer again.

I’m pretty sure that he’s feeling some lambo on that toyota dude, dude.

Get the S550.

I’m the lead R&D tech at a Mustang suspension company. We own one or two of every generation of Mustang starting from ‘79.

I used to work on H-60 helos in the Navy. This is definitely a mechanical failure. Either a hydraulic actuator failure, or a pushrod for controlling the pitch on the rotor blades.

No typos, just dear trains.

I thought they didn’t need a waste-gate because the MGU-H / TERS would control boost output?!
