its certainly easy to get discouraged. I think its also important to remember conditions will effect things greatly and you won't be able to always go after your PB. I've also learned that just because a driving style works for someone else (maybe they are also in a diff car) doesnt mean it works for you. Keep your head up, keep having fun, fix that wheel bearing, and you do you =)
still an amazing drive but unfortunate the dragging brake and wheel bearing delete occurred, Yet still at P2 finish! Making me want to look into doing time attacks at COTA...
Yet another epic vid! Tip for the future: before filming yourself with front camera of the phone, go to camera settings and uncheck "flip the front camera image" or so. Now at the beginning you're sitting in a RHD car and all of the logos are horizontally flipped :D Great drive and what a sound!!!
Kinda want to get a spyder and mod it out now... but I have arachnophobia..... Jokes aside, thats a sexy looking spyder. I have but a few questions, is it possible to make a 2010 Toyota Corolla a sleeper or even just a track car? If not, then I think my best option would be going with a Spyder or something like that. IDK. I have never modded any car before, what would be your recommendations?
@@TougeTime yeah Corvette was me. Everything was fine I had just installed a new intake manifold and didn't have a checkvalve in the right place. Gatorade catch can solved the problem for the remainder of the weekend.
All of us in the group I was with were struggling too. Nobody touched their PB. The track felt kinda greasy all weekend. I have driven the ridge for a long time and it never felt so greasy before when hot.
I think you could really benefit from a 2arfe swap, i put one in mine with 4.6 gears and OS Giken 1.5 Way LSD and it is very fun and usable and can take heaps of abuse. Be perfect for what you're trying to achieve. 2zz is great but revs = wear plus heat and smaller operating window of torque for different corners. With a grippy light car like a zzw30 you can really make use of good mid corner torque.
I don't know. If the brake was really dragging so much that you felt you had less engine power, wouldn't the brakes have completely overheated on the track at which point the sensation of having less power should have gone away? I would definitely change the lift bolts. I'm sure that this probably crossed your mind while you driving the car. Trust me from my own experience; that little voice in your head questioning whether or not the lift is a little weaker than it once was will not go away until you swap out those stupid little $3.00 bolts, haha!
Powerful Tsuchiya's gloves
Omg I love the Initial D ad break!
I've got my 2zz and just started the process of fixing a broken lift bolt..! I can't wait to build an MR2 like this.... INSPIRATION right here bro

Cool video manand very good driving! Keep pushing and make sure to fix the car quickly
The ending music & montage was fantastic
Love seeing the kFit
Love the initial d victory song at the end lol
Killed it with all the references!! Keep up that fresh editing style it's super fun to watch c:
Question tho: why is the Fit hopping like that?
Damper lackin I think
Because the chassis is so rigid
Flying! ..like the behind angle

Jdm
What car had 1st place???
Just a question, did adding tape to the seams on the front of the car help in any way?
Time wise yes but maybe I drove better
@@TougeTime Placebo effect is still effect 😅 maybe I'll give it a shot on my next trackday
Not sure that federal Rs-r would be my pick for a fast tyre. They are only a 200 treadwear semi slick? Try AR1, R888R or AO52
Minimum is 220tw for class
@@TougeTime Ahh i see, make a lot of sense. I really liked the way the rsr feels, but it it way slower than the 80-100 treadwear class :)
What mic? Just a lapel?
ayyyy @3:00 thats the same line I like through the final corners. It feels good to me in a fairly neutral MR car 🤷♂️
Why don't you give it a try to NS2-R or AR-1 tires?
Sounds mint man!
Damn Emilio, MR sounds gooood
Congrats man, these bearings suck! What size of Konig wheels do you use? Offset etc

Sorry i smoked you out! I got a catch installed in the pits after session one to fix the problem. Nice job out there.
Corvette? You were flyin. I was hoping your engine ok

I didn't feel a grip probably compared to my old tires. But I think I also had less power due to heat soak
Initial D
It was probably asked a million times, but what camera do you use inside the car?
Go pro
Awesome video. Mic sounds really good in the position it currently is. What brand and visosoity of oil are you using?
5w40 castrol
The edits are fuckin great man hahaha
haha that mic worked!

How do i get in contact with you? Email?
Instagram is easiest
Gotta thumbs down already, you gotta hater following you around buddy?? Must be someone who comes in second behind you all the time lol
Lol, haters
I had one of those for a couple years on my BlueStreakCorollaXRS channel. People don't like getting passed by Corollas on TH-cam 🤣

It wasn't like a seized caliper. It's slight deflection of the wheel. Mph on straight was noticeably less. Hopefully not the cam wipe lol.
I have some killer footage of you dogging me for a full lap - HMU on Instagram or Facebook!
Found on ig!
