      +TheRoadDriverly Had another XJ do that, as well as an Acura RSX, embarassed a TT pretty good one time too. One of the wildest ones was in the 4dr hatch Lebaron (RIP) that Jeep replaced, took a corner a bit hot and it started to push, so I let off, collected it, and looked in my mirror to find thst somebody in an old (although much newer than my car) Mercury Mystake had tried to follow me................Aaaaand understeered out of the accelleration lane, across two traffic lanes (which were empty because we had the green light, thank god!), and nearly biffed the left front corner into the median. When I saw that, I stuck my size 13 into the turbo and GTF Outta There!

    • @computiNATEor
      @computiNATEor 8 ปีที่แล้ว +34

      +Chicken Soup They use racing lines, too, but the radius is so huge that it's really not obvious. It's also pretty impressive to see them chuck those heavy beasts around places like Sears Point and Road America.

    • @cautionfiamable
      @cautionfiamable 8 ปีที่แล้ว +35

      +Chicken Soup you sir are clueless. NASCAR drivers must follow an even more strict line than road courses. every NASCAR driver got their start as a successful driver somewhere else first and most certainly would make you look like a 3 year old downs patient on any track.

    • @computiNATEor
      @computiNATEor 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      +rob brown Hmm, I'm not sure I'd say that have a line that's more strict; however, any variations in that line will result in losing maybe a tenth of a second, which, while on a road course isn't a huge deal, on an oval that's massive. Some tracks like Charlotte, California, Homestead-Miami, etc have a variety of lines, any of which can be faster depending on the tires and setup.

    • @cautionfiamable
      @cautionfiamable 8 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      computiNATEor
      well said and my thoughts exactly. you must pick your line, where your car is fastest, and then like you said, if you fuck up one little bit, boom there goes 15 spots.

    I honestly have to say every show on the motortrend channel is just fantastic. Roadkill, Dirt everyday, ignition, etc. the hosts are great, they are very well produced, the have a great balance of humour and information. Even the ad reads are good because they can relate the ad to the original topic of the video. Definitely my favourite channel on TH-cam.
