Why do these cars always spin out of control?
>>27596340>almost 600 horses and 800 torque>no downforce wing until acr pack just tiny lip spoiler which takes effect only at high speed>front heavy lightweight rear
>>27596340Heavy V10 in the front and worse suspension than in Corvette
>>27596340IIRC the early ones didn't have traction control and that started the meme.
>>27596340They don't when you run modern tires on them and use common sense. The transmission is at the rear and you almost sit over the rear axle in these so they actually put their power down pretty well compared to other high power F/R vehicles. I can floor a 200hp pickup truck on a icy turn and spin out too. Power really has nothing to do with it.
>>27596362>The transmission is at the rear>viperhaha what? That's news to me.
>>27596340original one had no nannys: no abs, no tractional control, no stability control, the reputation has stuck ever since
>>27596367Actually it's not I was thinking of the Vette. But it still does sit pretty far back into the cab.
>>27596351This plus the average driver is some old fuck with more money than sense whos used to flooring his 120 hp chrysler sebring
>>27596387That picture pisses me off. Fucking boomers and their easy ass lives
>>27596387/threadOld faggots with paralyzed senses and reflexes being the only ones who can afford those cars is what made them dangerous. Fuck those geriatrics.
>>27596433>meanwhile zoomers make money playing video games on youtube/twitchBro, kill yourself for not applying yourself.
>>27596436>>meanwhile zoomers make money playing video games on youtube/twitchMost of that influencer shit is fake
>>27596354>worse suspension than in Corvettekek, dumbass wrenchlet
>>27596340why do european cars always crash even in a straight line? aren't they supposed to handle better?
>>27596441>immediate defeatism Dear god you lot are a pathetic bunch.
>>27596460huh? defeatism? Im just trying to tell you that 99.9% of those people are industry plants, and arent actually as rich as they seem. MTV pulled this off on the last generation
>>27596460Dude how old are you
>>27596463I've never heard of this particular conspiracy theory it seems kinda stupid.
>>27596468>t. dumb as a fucking pakistani rock
>>27596433your time will come probably
>>27596468"conspiracy theory." Bro, when I was a kid we were tricked into thinking rap and pop stars had these ultra mansions.. MTV cribs and all that. Its common knowledge now that the studios actually owned all the cars and houses or rented them. The same goes for the twitch little kid shit.
>>27596433>>27596441Holy cope. LMAO.
>>27596481????
>>27596456Nah, that one's 100% on the driver>floor it>yank the wheel to the left>rear steps out>panic>yank the wheel to the opposite side Had the driver just gently countersteered and let off the throttle slightly instead of going full retard, he'd be completely fine.
>>27596484keep coping, zoomie
>>27596492What the fuck am I coping over? How am I a zoomie while your using little kid speak???
In the past entertainers need to you know, go to work to make money. Zoomers can sit on their ass at home and do the same job and they still whine.
>>27596488>its the drivers fault in its european!cope
>>27596456Lift-off snap oversteer. Too much power and too much grip.Weight transfers to the rear under acceleration, lightening the steering and reducing steering input. It got a little squirrely. He steered into the skid and then let off the gas. The weight slammed back down on the fronts giving sudden traction to the steers, while at the same time reducing traction from the rears.Looks like he was pretty quick on trying to correct, but the sideways force imparted to the rear in that first few milliseconds of the fronts regaining full grip kicked it out.You can see his tires are straight here, but he needed to be countersteering the other way to catch itSo much grip on the fronts with the weight transferred to it and so little on the rear when spun up or going sideways = loop de loop if you don't catch it within the first tenth of a second.A "great handling car" can become a very bad handling car with too much power applied, shifting tremendous amounts of handling from one end to the other.Its why sports cars don't need 900hp to be "sports cars." All you need is enough power to get you into the turn at max lateral traction. Doing 900MPH down the straight is not "sportiness," it's about throwing the car about with precision, and it's pretty hard to be precise when one extra millimeter of pedal travel spins your rears up to 900MPH going around a 70MPH corner.
>>27596387oh no those evil old men . How dare they to use money they earned to buy expensive cars . it is unfair that 20 year kids only can afford bus ticket
>>27596340No traction/stability control,Sharp power curve after 3000rpm,retards are running them old tires because they are too cheap to by newer ones.
>>27596610You fucking faggot. It's unfair to everybody, because even those old fucks should've gotten to enjoy those cars back when they were young and had the abilities to drive them to the fullest.Instead we have this shitty system where by the time you're able to (((afford))) the car, you're a decrepit antique with 1/10th of the eyesight and hearing and 10x the reaction times you used to have. Grim shit.
>>27596340>Why do these cars always spin out of control?they are very powerful cars usually driven by retarded americans>>27596351>front heavy lightweight rearnot true, the first gen was 50/50 and the subsequent generations had more rear biased weight distribution>>27596354>Heavy V10 in the front and worse suspension than in Corvette46/54 F/R, double wishbones on 4 cornersvipers are amazing cars, them and the ford gt are the only good sports cars to come out of the US
>>27596870>vipers are amazing cars, them and the ford gt are the only good sports cars to come out of the USand corvette, starting from c5 onwards
>>27596935You're about to make the $5000 250hp beater C4 crew seethe.
>>27596433>easy ass livesAt least boomers use bearable forms of English.
>>27596730Boomers had Corvettes when they were younger though, that's why the nameplate has insane brand loyalty.
>>27596943c4 was 80s trash until zr1 came outc5 was already compativite sport car in basic version
>>27596990everything it was up against from japan and europe was even bigger 80s trash.
>>27596340Relatively affodable with huge amounts of power and torque = lots of accidents. That's what happens when you give power to the common man. Truely the most based of cars, respecting true drivers, and killing off morons.
>>27596514Yeah, rich retards buy expensive, fast cars and don't know how to drive them. Inevitably it leads to stupid shit like this>I turned off traction control and stomped the accelerator and the car just lost all grip, literally no one could have predicted that!
>>27597009There's that seethe I was talking about! >>27596943
>>27597097a Cobalt is faster around the ring than a GTR. anyone who replies to me with evidence of the contrary is proof of the seethe i am talking about.
>>27597103>r34>1980s cars
>>27597120See what i mean? already seething!
>>27597123I don't have a dog in this fight. I'm just pointing out your inconsistency.
>>27596340if women were as beautiful as vipers then there would be no more wars
>>27597103the official story was that it was a stock r34 with a 180 kph (112 mph) speed limiter which hurt the gtrs time on dottinger, foxhole and adenauer badly enough for the cobalt, with an unlimited top speed of over 160 mph, to win. even given that the ss cobalt is still based as hell
>>27597129what inconsistency? i made a statement that the cobalt was faster and showed that it was. they're the ones talking about the 80s.
>>27597149all japanese market stock cars were limited to 180kmh - skyline, supra, evo, whatever
>>27597149Yeah realistically an R34 should be sub 8 minutes, probably only by ~5-10 seconds, but still.
>>27597153I thought you were also in the 80s squabble. My apologies.
I'm thinking about buying a used corvette. How do I not crash my car when I want to let er rip? Avoid flooring it right off the line, easing into it? If I do get a bit loose, do I let off the gas lightly but keep on it?
>>27597172Practice breaking loose in an open area where you can't crash. That way you've experienced it multiple times and understand how it acts.
>>27596610Never mentioned anything about unfairness, just said old ppl without driving skills are inadequate at hooning powerful cars.Put on your reading glasses grandpa.
>>27596730You sound like a bitter millenial poorfag. It's amazing how I can still buy one of those Corvettes from that picture for the same price I paid for my 1960s muscle car that I chose instead. Maybe try getting a job, faggot. t. Zoomer tradie.
>>27596514baboons should not be driving
>>27597344Keep up the good work and remember to save a lot too, big dog.
>>27597423Always, chief. I always put some away every month for savings, and keep some for my project car.
>>27596456> In the Netherlands on green dealer plates.Yeah thats just a dumbass customer doing a testdrive.
