      Insanely modified that is, this particular model. I've driven the Type R and the front end is very lazy, the car tends to understeer quite a lot. This one is super sharp and oversteers in every corner. Clearly modified suspension compared to stock just for this lap. Not to mention if they sold this setup to the public 99% of people would bin the car the first time they'd drive it above 5/10ths.

    Impressive use of 6th gear (4 times). No other driver of the stock FL5 has managed that on the Nordschleife with the usual longer gearing they have in 6th.
    Looks like uprated boost pressure (peaked at 1.83), a 0.3 bar uprate generally, and modified gear program. Will the new variant Type R S have these modifications? Would be great!

      I for one am shocked that a professional racing driver got different characteristics out of a car than an accountant/YT vlogger. Also this is the CTR-S edition, as noted in their press release. Similar to what Renault did with the Trophy R, but Honda changed MUCH less than they did from the stock car.

    • @Chocofur
      @Chocofur ปีที่แล้ว +28

      @@JacobMueller how do you know if they've changed much less if the spec of the car is not even available? Different gearing ratios and turbo boost is not a minor change. Renault didn't change anything in the engine, they've simply removed backs seats, 4 control (which quite a lot of people didn'tt like anyway) and added 2 carbon parts (hood and diffuser). carbon breaks and wheels that were used to break the record are an overkill but you can still get them if you want as an option. Put Cup2R's on Megane and the record will be back at Renault with way more than 0.5s as it stands now for Honda.

  • @JonesyTerp1
    @JonesyTerp1 ปีที่แล้ว +210

    The superimposed map of weight transfer shows how good the car performs. Under initial braking the weight is transferred to the front wheels quickly and solidly but more importantly, when he begins to trail brake and put in steering lock at turn in, diagonal weight transfer is great. The outside rear gets weight that is equal to the outside front heading toward the apex, meaning the car is rotating and the driver can hold a consistent lock. The car looks really fun. Even someone like me, not a race driver outside of sim racing, could seemingly drive this car at lower speeds, be challenged a bit, get a thrill and enjoyment without having to worry about being dangerous to anyone around me. I may have to convince the wife to let me buy one of these!

      @derbigpr500 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      @Jay They don't have to. Everyone knows the Megane is a superior car, and that Honda cheats by using non-stock cars for setting records. Look how oversteery this car is, how sharp the front end is. The rear wants to step out every time he touches the steering wheel. That's a TOTAL opposite of how this car drives actually, I mean, stock. This is why no driver with a Type R ever gets anywhere near the lap times set by Honda, and Megane RS drivers regularly do so and go even faster.

    He uses trail braking to negate understeer and also delays going from brake to the gas by 10ths of a second to create a hint of oversteer. This then straightens the exit of the corner.

    Really short gear ratio from 5th to 6th gear… at 1:14 gear indicator lights are already lit? Shorter gear ratio I see. Don’t think it’s a stock Honda type R, I’ve watched other videos of the Honda on auto barn and other race tracks and the Honda seems to have longer gear ratios from 5th to 6th. Impressively good driving though.

The driver hits 6th gear 4 times (and almost red lines 6th gear) on this lap, which is something a stock FL5 could not do. Honda may have turned up the boost or changed the gearing. Somethings not right here. Im a HUGE fan of Honda but this is quite a letdown if this is all true.

      ​@@institorisinstitoris959This car has an automatic heel toe shifting but is even necesary if not? Depends on the car but on the driver too... Is not obligatory, I would say (but old cars with rear traction is better to use it). When you control the clutch and don't force so much the downshifts, is good enough.
      The left brake isn't neccesary at all! Some pilots use it cause is an habit for them and it's supposed you are faster with this method and smoother too. In real life is not really necessary. So some pilots use it and others don't and the differences in lap times are often zero
