I sold my C63 to a guy that has a Elantra N track car. He let me take his track car (which is also street legal) for a spin, and it was a different monster than the C63. Actually even more fun, even though it's not as brutally fast as the AMG. There's a reason why these are popular. If you love cars and understand them, then you will appreciate the Elantra N.
Great job to both GenRacer and Hyundai N! Raw deal with that MINI incident last year... very professional to exclude that. The EN is a great family car that I can take my kids to school, and also bang out 20 minute lap sessions on track while the more expensive "track ready" competitors are pulling off early due to overheating - looking at you CTR FL5
Good job GenRacer, Jeff Ricca, and Hyundai USA. It was incredible to see the progression of the Elantra N TC car. Jeff is the best ambassador for the brand on the race track
Basically what I learned from this video is that if I ever decide to race my car... It's gonna break.. Normal street cars are not intended to be pushed on a track lol
Paddle box? Steering wheel? Seat? Roll cage? Restraints? Wheels? Breaks? Brake pads? Engine modifications? Intake? Fuel pumps? Fire suppression system? He did mentioned fuel cell, Wing, brake ducts, suspension, and ECU modification after he said they didn't modify the electronics.
GENRACER, do you all recommend a catch can, or do you think it added to burning oil somehow? I read somewhere someone saying once they installed their catch can, they noticed oil consumption? I ask because i installed the same catch I saw in this video on my 2024 Hyundai Elantra N. Im LOVING the car so far
@@godcore223 I mean pretty much what the video is going off of. There's another video of this on their YT channel of a walk-around of the cars modifications
The cars have some modifications that aren't available in the market yet and there's a lot of deeper setup at play depending on the tire, aero, effective spring rates, and other changes to the car. Presuming it's a reasonably stock car on a 70tw or 200tw tire, start by running -3.0° F / -2.0° R camber, 0.00 toe F / 0.05 - 0.10 toe-in R, and even out the front caster to 5.5 - 7.0° on both sides if you have any adjustment range. Take the car through some hot laps, then start working through the tire pressure to hit the tire's target pressure and bring the center of the tire up/down in temp to reduce the difference across the tire face. Once the tire temps are in the ballpark you can start logging tire temps by bringing the car in hot and having someone quickly take tire temp readings. Adjust until tire temps are reasonably even (accounting for any temp bias from the last few turns, etc). Once you have camber reasonably set, start adjusting the rear toe towards zero and make adjustments to the front toe as needed to give you the rotation (yaw) dynamics you prefer with a bit of added lateral grip from bump toe, ideally when you can use it ... kinematics don't always play along. You'll have to make other changes along the way to balance out the level of tire grip available for accel / cornering / braking. That's entirely dependent on track, car, and other things. As you add-in more and more aero, power, braking, etc be expected to change all of this. Aero is especially challenging because of its ride height and yaw sensitivity, but that's a deeper, more experienced problem to solve.
They need to work on customer service at the dealership. We own a 2018 Sonata…. One and done Hyundai owners. NEVER AGAIN! The oil consumption issues for that year needs to be addressed! Dangerous!
Got 57,000km on my 2023 Elantra N and no oil consumption issue (I do my own oil change). However, EN's transmission seal is leaking (my driveway is a mess) and waiting to see if they're going to warranty it (already been about a month and nothing). Also own a 2021 Kona (the one with premium leather seats) and no oil Consumption issue.
@@anthonyscott5484 already did, Anthony. Thanks for the tip. My point is, these cars are a piece of crap and they don’t care to take care of you after selling the junk.
@@anthonyscott5484 A lot of Hyundais are fire hazards. The anti theft did not exist. I would try to spread that information as far as possible to prevent anyone from having a negative, unsafe or harmful experience. I’ve never witnessed a car brand be that negligent or sell that crappy of a product. We had to take our car in for the paint peeling off! Took months of complaining, no help. Next time you are driving, if you ever see a white Hyundai with the paint all rusting off.. doesn’t even have to be an older car.. it is due to Hyundai’s practices. Not the owner. Also, to add to that the car is at 60K miles. Additionally, like I originally stated, now we are on terrible internal safety issues. So yeah, I’ll try my best to warn. I’d like to add that I found this channel on the Hyundai page when I originally bought the car. I was wowed by the technology they are describing in this video but that is the only think they have going for them.. again.. they need to help these people with this MASS oil issue. They are selling the MASSES crap cars and NOT helping us.

Elantra owner here - This is awesome. Good job Hyundai!
Awesome work! Happy to own a Elantra N as well. This car can take the beating of a track day. Day after day and don’t skip a beat!
Awesome video. Pretty cool to see how much is left untouched.
Congrats on a great season!! Way to keep your head down and come from behind to win the Championship.
catching so much in my catch can for my 2021 VN, especially during the winter months
Basically what I learned from this video is that if I ever decide to race my car... It's gonna break.. Normal street cars are not intended to be pushed on a track lol
Who said this was a normal car tho

Im LOVING the car so far
Awesome 👌
So all this elentra n has is ecu tune, intercooler, coil overs, wheels and custom air ducts everything is stock ?
Yes
eLSD tune as well
All stock hardware and slightly modified OEM or aftermarket parts within TCR regulations.
@@anthonyscott5484 is there a list of items? I want to turn mine into this minus stripped interior and wing
@@godcore223 I mean pretty much what the video is going off of. There's another video of this on their YT channel of a walk-around of the cars modifications
I have the 2023 n where do I start its the 6 speed standard I couldn't do the auto I like to drive the car.
Good luck on the season. Can you telle your alignment settings? I'm trying to get setup to run TT and would appreciate any help you can offer

That IC coupler is a major problem even outside of the track. Hopefully they worked it out in the newer model
I'm thinking about what that wing might look like on my 2023 CN7.
"N is Dominant" you herd it here. congrats
Wheel and tire sizes? Thanks!
Get rid of octane learning. Please.

Can you gives us want we really want! A Veloster…
The Veloster/Kona is a discontinued Gen1 N car, we're at Gen2 with the CN7. It's time to move on dude.
Day one of asking Hyundai to Subscribe.
I dont really understand why they didnt sell the Elentra N in Europe...
Emisions and restrictions. F... Europe lol
@@djdario8309 Ofc, but its still sad... Europe is just gone full stupid mode with cars and stuff...
HyundaiUSA, I love this! Can we be friends?
put the 2.0L turbo into the new Kona, the 2.5L turbo into the Tucson, and stop pushing unwanted EV junk on the rest of this country ...🤮🫣😤💰🤑👺🤡
Do research there is a Kona N
Lol why u talking about EV in a EN TCR video...?
I have a 2022 Kona N it has the 2.0T It would be nice if they did a new Kona N ice version again.
We don't need any more N SUVs either. The EN is superior to the now thankfully discontinued KN.
@@BassLegendYTcorrection there was a Kona in thankfully it's gone
