So many modern "professionals" would have fucking died right away in the first minute of this video. Sports cars were a completely different breed back then

no esp?
>>29100047Certified classic. The RUF doesn't even look fun to drive unless you're a madman like Roser. It's on ice skates the entire time. Here's another good one.https://youtu.be/5zVD-uJIAII
>>29100054And another. Wish it didn't have the music, but Pikes Peak generated a lot of kino videos of incredible driving. https://youtu.be/MGYEjb9F3kM
Holy fuckThe Burgerking trees were TINY 40 years ago
>>29100047This pos cant grip the road for shit
>>29100047Here's some more burgerring kino.https://youtu.be/sxwRgSZiKTk
>>29100060I never realized this difference and now it's messing with my head
>>29100060>>29100096>OMG TREES GROW :O
>>29100054I can't stand how '80s car videos kept jumping between internal and external shots. The Yellowbird video works because the first lap is purely onboard.
>>29100105Yes.
>>29100109Equipment was fucking absurdly expensive so they made sure to use all of it preferably at the same time. Ruf people were really autistic about the experience so they dictated how shit had to look
>>29100048I would have shit myself if I was in any one of those scooters
>>29100060>trees.... le get bigg're???goddamn it americans are so fucking stupid
>>29100047I know this video is legendary at this point and the guy is indeed skilled. But I heard he was instructed to deliberatedly make his run more dramatic and the car would not look as crazy as this when actually driven at the limit for laptimes, is this true or just retarded rumors?
>>29100275>is the guy Drifting all over the place, laying rubber and hooning about being asked to set a laptime or could he have possibly been asked to showboat for the camera???
>>29100047>>29100048tire technology has evolved so much in such little time it's actually insane. that car's performance tires probably had less grip than today's worn winter tires
>>29100167>Ruf people were really autisticwtf I love Ruf even more now
dick ride him harder faggot would probably shit himself on a motorcycle at isle of man so nope he just did a lap in a sports car made for this shit fucking cagers
>>29100324who hurt you lil bro?
>>29100289>tire technology has evolved so much in such little time it's actually insane.>in such little time>40 years
>>29100105but the trees have been there a long ass time, why weren't they already huge
>>29100064he's doing it on purpose. RUF wanted him to make it look exciting driving the car
>>29100047It seems like he is constantly "testing" to see if he has traction enough to turn. Great stuff. ofc he has probably driven that course hundreds of times.
>>29100047That driver is fucking awful.He's constantly going above the limit and losing time everywhere.He's using way too many steering. & If I had to guess, he's probably way too aggressive on the brakes and gas as well..t track fag
>>29100452It's almost like he's not chasing lap times.Crazy idea, I know.
>>29100452kek
>>29100047>>29100048It's funny how American cars "can't turn" when this is the pinnacle of handling in Europe.
>>29100289An off-the-shelf sports tire today has more grip than an early-80s F1 tire.
>>29100414That's barely half a lifetime, if that
>>29100452heβs obviously just having fun
>>29100516>pinnacle of handling wrong car m8
>>29100060There was a big clearing effort in '70/71.
>>29100414the guy in that video is probably still alive.
>>29100516American cars can't even go straight though
>>29100047this video is a certified hood classic, it makes me want to wrap my miata around a tree and secure my place in sto'vo'kor>>29100226>but what about the americans?
>>29100105as does my dick
>>29100414I'm 40 you little shit.
>Oh, you think grip is your ally? You merely adopted the grip; I was born with it, molded by it. I didn't feel the road until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but a SKIDPAD! The grip betrays you, because it belongs to me.">>29104656
>>29100168Kek imagine being a bike fag on the burger king and Sabine starts fucking bullying you in an E39 with aggressive driving
>>29104687>Sabine starts fucking bullying you in an E39 with aggressive drivingmore like a ford transit...
>>29100047Drivings not a sport your literally sitting down
>>29105132Rowing isn't a sport?
>>29100060Loblolly pines (not the trees at the ring, just an example im familiar with) grow 3-4 feet a year under ideal conditions.I planted a few thousand on my property 10 years ago. They were tiny seedlings that averaged less than 12" and now theyre 25+ feet tall with zero watering other than what nature provided. I also have multiple oak species that are 5 feet after the same time frame.
>>29100414I have socks older than you.
>>29105427Is an boat a athlete?
>>29106841The rower is.
>>29106848So the driver is
