for some odd reason I was thinking about the chaparral 2j suction system throughout this whole video..might just be all the crazy ideas being thrown around now..
i dont see wat the problem is with nascar i can sit down and watch a whole race and see the same amount of strategy that goes into a formula one race without the soap opera bullshit and with next years season its gonna be loads better when nascar actually changes rules while the FIA caves into the owners.
by the way im not some dumb redneck i grew up going to sears point every year and its still my favorite race
OMG...I'm sorry people but this is just ridiculous. Compliment is nice but frankly will not gain sponsors. His jokes are forced, his teleprompter reading skills are mentally challenged which follows to my next point the detail laden information being given combine with the other to points makes for a very confusing show.

Listen..I apologize fully. I know you and Leo have a thing...he is obviously a very special person to you. That kinda of love is hard to find. I know your relationship is blossoming and things scary and new but exciting and promising. I just want you to know that I want nothing...absolutely nothing to come between you and Leo. The bond and love between you is a testament to why Proposition 8 must be voted down. Hang in there.
Damn, you stayed "on-topic" for that children's rant...
Instead of going off about what you are obviously thinking about in YOUR spare time; why don't you attempt to read the crap you originally posted and look for reasons why you attract negative comments????......
......ooooooor you could go off on a random, off-topic, homosexual rant that does nothing for your point, but prove you do not have one.
Just another youtube trash talker, talking shit about..... nothing relevant!
once again trying to defend urself. just give it up, quiping back at people on the internet gets u no where fast. I used to not like u leo but i have gotten used to ur jim rome style of oral presentation. so dont ever bother trying to protect ur ego and maybe take it all in as constructive criticism, no matter how idiotic peoples comments are.
My videos are done for free with no quality expectation. Your videos are also done with no quality expectation but at a cost.
So yes your videos are kinda comparable to mine...Here's a test LEO. Put your videos on your page and see how many views you get!!! Besides mine to laugh at you, your view and your moms view, I don't expect much more traffic. You JF, Alex Roy are all sucking off the teet of Derick's (and alex's-when is she coming back) success with FLD.
Hey leo, I emailed shakedown street (in the middle of the video) . I hope you were not kidding because I want you and DD to stay with fast lane daily. And any sponsor you tell me to check out I will.
leo is a legend. My favourite part of fld is the shakedown
I like the idea of the porsche but will anything like this really take off? The costs of putting it into production vehicles and hoping that people buy into it? In todays market it could only be pushed as a fuel saving add on.
Maybe I dont know what im talking about. Anyway leo, no mention of usf1? Im quite surprised!
Don't know about hybrid either. But, with Porsche [race] and Ferrari [599 road] doing cars, they can be trusted to find out. Others will follow; eg- BMW / Audi for sure.
'News' is when something unexpected happens. USF1 implosion, as such, does not qualify as news, to me.
Besides, this saga ain't over yet, no matter how it ends. Now, asking FIA for 4-race grace period. Ehh, that's symptom not issues; - eg- money and mgt..
wht an incredable coinsidence fast lane daily u should all so let the people of shake down street now tht you have a segement of ur show about race cars called shakedown and by sponsoring shake down street you should run advertiseing their you might triple or even qaud ur views on youtube
Problem is - It's all rumors after all this time. I couldn't find the running footage video [eg - the tow rope story]. Another commenter disputed the flywheel break story, and another rumor said it never even ran once......
But, truth IS ChryCo was waaay ahead of the game in thinking about the future of the car AND was going to use racing to develop it. Wow.
I am telling you what everyone is thinking who didn't comment. The ones who saw the image of the car on video clip and thought it was another FLD and then realized to their horror that it was the old guy again. If you don't want to hear it get a real job.
SO HOW ABOUT THIS**NEXT NEW NETWORKS***. INSTEAD OF CUTTING FLD DOWN TO THE NUB
Ummmmm doesn't anyone find it ironic that after DECADES of lightening flywheels for racing we are now slapping it all back on to add power boost and better economy? Admittedly it can be engaged and disengaged. But still - full circle. Here is hoping that this trend will continue and we will have 2-stroke race cars in no time.
Have you read any hype on the recent Ski-Doo direct injection 2-strokes? Super clean, more powerful than ever, crazy fuel economy. Maybe we will see them in racing, F500?
As for the flywheel stuff, full circle in a way, but storing energy while letting the engine rev up/down freely. Sounds cool in theory!
Is it just me or whenever someone calls DPs ugly, they only show the Riley MK XX? Also, NASCAR's recent ownership of Grand-Am(which was only recent in 2008, long after 2003 when the DPs came along) had nothing to do with the design of the Daytona Prototypes. It gets tiring to hear people ignorantly associating them with that idiot Brian France. That dumbass doesn't control Grand-Am, Roger Edmondson does so enough of that crap already. And on a lighter note, you plan on getting that stuff, Leo?
Also, I'd like to point out that the Shiden was also built and produced by Riley Technologies, same people doing the DP program, in America. Just wanted to further dispell the "Nascar thought up crap in America" sentence there. And wow, didn't relize Chrysler also failed in 93 to do a Le Mans Prototype Campaign. I only remember their efforts from 2000 to 2002(clearly riding the bandwagon success the Vipers had all over the world at the time) with Reynard 2KQs & rebadged Dallara LMPs.
Ah I get it, although to my memory Rileys have never been the prettiest cars even back in GTP days. Hell, they all use the same blunt front nose(rather unimaginitive). I agree with you on the Crawford and I also believe the Lola is a example of what a DP should look like. As for the Shiden, I didn't say they designed it. The car was a Collabration with Mooncraft resurrecting and updating their Shiden 77 concept design from 1977 and Riley Technologies Building and producing it.
As for the NASCAR/Grand-Am thing, its only been financial support befoe 08. Brian had nothing to do with the designs or the rules of the DPs so it grinds me. What I said can be interpreted that way, but I'm not implying that what you said was Anti-American, only that somehow NASCAR keeps getting credit for stuff they didn't do (and honestly, can't do. Not with Brian in charge anyway) And WTF, Sarah Spyker? Do I whine that bad(or at all)? I hardly say anything as far as I can remember.
Marking turf, IF it was a pro-US defense you had taken.
It's all good. Enjoy the banter with you.
Anyone who knows that OLD Shiden [pink and black] is OK!
You are [likely] accurate on DP decision and BF, but like Toyoda coming to speak for Toyota, the head guy always gets it - unless you are the Goldman Sachs Wala St. CEO!!
PS- I've got a positive / thought-provoking NASCAR comment coming, likely in the next show.
The Shiden Privee GT300 car is a real ''beauty'' compare to other prototypes racing these days... In my opinion the last beatyfull LM prototypes where the AMG CLK-LM/GTR and Porsche GT1...
Why is everyone fearing Hybrd race cars anyway..A fan want be able hear or see a diffrence...Plus it makes the cars do what they were designed to do better..Go Faster
Shakedown Kitchener Ontario. I bought a really good pipe there once. Back in the day. Pretty good place. I don't know if it's the best head shop, but that's neither here nor there.
I would like to know what is happening with BMW, why are they not in the DTM (2009), and what racing are they still involved in. Make a segment FLD / Shakedown !
I dont care what anyone says, that Chrysler Le Mans car is sorta cool, in an eara of chrysler building some of the most boring cars in history (with the exception of the Dodge OMNI Shelby GHLS) there racecars was still unique. Maybe you would have to be high to try to build it, but I think the first time someone wanted to walk on the moon or fly, people probably said they where high too. Imagine Chrysler rebuilding this thing and racing at Le Mans, that would be awesome.
I agree gearhead, I think Chrysler was onto something good there The turbine could run on just about any fuel, and modern electronics would control the motor(s). Sadly typical of the automakers to be 15-20 yrs too early. Maybe they will try again. Oh yeah, guess you're a Mopar guy from the username...
Chrysler actually had a turbine powered car in the 60's, my grandpa got a ride in one at a demonstration, that would have been cool to see on the streets.
I hope Audi can have a better 2010 than last year's Le Mans woes. I wonder how a 6-cylinder twin-turbo diesel would fare for the Peugeots along with a KERS system. Good insight on those notes on the Porsche GP car, Leo. I can now see how some teams can save fuel in F1 this season with that system. I know Chrysler made an LMP in 2000 and 2001, but I din't know about that hybrid. Leo, the Mooncraft Shiden is absolutely beautiful. Maybe the DPs could learn style from the Mooncraft Shiden.
2010 ACO LM rules call for all engines to go down in size, LMP1 mtrs will be current LMP2 and /or GT2 sourced [eg- prodcution-based]. So, Pug will likely move from 12 and be smaller, too.
The F1 teams chose to abandon KERS this year, not the rules.
I believe it is planned / required in the 2011 designs. With no fuel stops, fuel save mode plus power to pass option to allow diff race strategies - Just like Willams designed!!
@LeoParente Damn, because I was getting my first car prepped for the regional time attack season, this system sounds very interesting, and it might give me an edge, and nothing in the regulations saying anything against it, so at least for the first season it would be a huge advantage.
I actually like the shakedown being on a seperate day better now anyways. The show was getting a little too long.
But to be honest I wish they would get rid of that crap they show on Thursday and move shake down to hump day. Its not really all that much car news when you go from Wednesday to Monday without news then bunch the news all together.
That or move JF and the other dude to Tuesday and Leo to Thursday if thats possible I'm sure atleast some of the crew have other jobs
3:04-3:12 ..... Everyone needs to listen to that statement, it is so dead on.
It IS the other idiot factors that are going to kill fun racing... well said Leo.
And I would love to see the Shakedown Street sponsorship, lol.... maybe the FLD crew could try out some killer "water-pipes" (might lead to a better Alex Roy segment).
6 1/2 days till RL TimeAttack!!!!!! Whoop-Whoop!! :D
RLTA site switched their timer, now it says March instead of Feb! ...
Instead of the RLTA employees getting more and more info on the time attack teams participating in 2010 (in regards to chassis, engine, suspension, brakes, AERO, AERO, AERO).
They are putting together, "Battle of the Bands, Miss Redline Spokes Model Contest and Car Club Show & Shine". WTF?!
Performance-related information is being ignored so far... THREE teams posted in 2 weeks!?! The 10' website is a let down SO FAR.
Leo is good, but I am soon realizing that it is the writers of the show that are destroying Fast Lane Daily. Why must every segment be an attempt at a late night monologue? It is one thing to have clown boy Derek D and his foolishness and lack of car knowledge, but don't try and turn Leo into the same. We watch for the news and our love of cars and motorsport, not for the horrible and corny attempts at being funny. Leo, consider going to Autoweek. Unfortunately, that is where I am turning.
FW, I wrote script. So, I'm 'destroying' SD on my own. Have 2 blend facts / info + fun / interest 2 appeal 2 hardcores + casuals.
Here's my view. It's 'just' racing, not world politics. Matters, true. But, it's billions of bucks simply to send a kit of carbon / metal / rubber down the tarmac fast as possible. Not exactly deep stuff.
I love it. But, only time to be totaly serious about racing is behind the wheel at speed.
And I never let fun steal from the info..... Never.
maybe you have been spending a little too much time down on Shakedown Street, but i cant recall ever saying anything like that, ever. i cant find the comment you replied to, but i think you meant to reply to somebody else. i love Shakedown and wouldnt change a thing, its good news
Was trying to respond to FormulaWill in the thread you were posting in FormWill started [eg- the writing is ruining the show, be more like AutoWeek - But, I've seen Neff's show. She tries 'the funny', too to fight 'the dull'. So, I'm confused].
My comments were not directed to you. Oops. Sorry.
Whoa Leo not cool, did you just say "bong"? I'm not sure about Canada but here in California you'll get kicked outta a head shop if you say that. Use the euphemism "water pipe".
FOTA already agreed not to use it. Because it was promoted by the FIA, they probably don't want to admit that it was a bad idea. If you analyze the designs of this years cars, you see that no one has designed KERS into the cars. Whether a rule change or not is instituted by the FIA, KERS is dead in F1.
since we got rumors flying around top gear America and who's in and who's out, why doesn't leo apply for the job. i can see him screaming at Corollas stupidity now. he would make an awesome addition to the trio.
Hope to see you here in Montreal for the F1GP. Well need your thoughts on this comeback. By the way, if the F1 championship started this weekend, which team would win this Sunday race? Just a guess for fun.
Last F1 for me was '97 [my last Atlantic yr]. Also had to stop in for a 1-day biz gig when CART ran there 2007 [?]. Was NOT the same. Can't imagine watching NASCAR on the Isle.
I hate Alonso's team poltic's [eg- the McLaren mess] BUT, he is my pure driving choice. And I think the tilt-engine Ferrari will be fast. So....
But, it is a 4 team fight - F, MB, RB, McLaren. Anyone, right now. Really.

And [Sarah Spyker] don't imply this to be an anti-Amurican thing, because it's not.
LeoParente 1 year ago
Ah I get it, although to my memory Rileys have never been the prettiest cars even back in GTP days. Hell, they all use the same blunt front nose(rather unimaginitive). I agree with you on the Crawford and I also believe the Lola is a example of what a DP should look like. As for the Shiden, I didn't say they designed it. The car was a Collabration with Mooncraft resurrecting and updating their Shiden 77 concept design from 1977 and Riley Technologies Building and producing it.
Spyker88 1 year ago
As for the NASCAR/Grand-Am thing, its only been financial support befoe 08. Brian had nothing to do with the designs or the rules of the DPs so it grinds me. What I said can be interpreted that way, but I'm not implying that what you said was Anti-American, only that somehow NASCAR keeps getting credit for stuff they didn't do (and honestly, can't do. Not with Brian in charge anyway) And WTF, Sarah Spyker? Do I whine that bad(or at all)? I hardly say anything as far as I can remember.
Spyker88 1 year ago
The 'Sarah' thing was just a fun shot.
Marking turf, IF it was a pro-US defense you had taken.
It's all good. Enjoy the banter with you.
Anyone who knows that OLD Shiden [pink and black] is OK!
You are [likely] accurate on DP decision and BF, but like Toyoda coming to speak for Toyota, the head guy always gets it - unless you are the Goldman Sachs Wala St. CEO!!
PS- I've got a positive / thought-provoking NASCAR comment coming, likely in the next show.
WTF??

The Shiden Privee GT300 car is a real ''beauty'' compare to other prototypes racing these days... In my opinion the last beatyfull LM prototypes where the AMG CLK-LM/GTR and Porsche GT1...

Shakedown Kitchener Ontario. I bought a really good pipe there once. Back in the day. Pretty good place. I don't know if it's the best head shop, but that's neither here nor there.
I would like to know what is happening with BMW, why are they not in the DTM (2009), and what racing are they still involved in. Make a segment FLD / Shakedown !
nanzioboy 1 year ago
BMW has been out of DTM for quite a while. Will have to check, but think it was the late 90's last they were in.
Why no DTM? Not sure. But, they said IF more of a production spec, they may join.
BMW now focused on GT2 M3 for Le Mans and ALMS. 1 3-series team in BTCC. Customer cars - new GT3 Z4, the GT2, probably a 3-series TouringCar.
Formula BMW is still running in Europe. Heard rumors it's in trouble in US.
Think that's it for now.
Need to check those facts myself.

I dont care what anyone says, that Chrysler Le Mans car is sorta cool, in an eara of chrysler building some of the most boring cars in history (with the exception of the Dodge OMNI Shelby GHLS) there racecars was still unique. Maybe you would have to be high to try to build it, but I think the first time someone wanted to walk on the moon or fly, people probably said they where high too. Imagine Chrysler rebuilding this thing and racing at Le Mans, that would be awesome.
gearheadd318 1 year ago
I agree gearhead, I think Chrysler was onto something good there The turbine could run on just about any fuel, and modern electronics would control the motor(s). Sadly typical of the automakers to be 15-20 yrs too early. Maybe they will try again. Oh yeah, guess you're a Mopar guy from the username...

Chrysler actually had a turbine powered car in the 60's, my grandpa got a ride in one at a demonstration, that would have been cool to see on the streets.

I hope Audi can have a better 2010 than last year's Le Mans woes. I wonder how a 6-cylinder twin-turbo diesel would fare for the Peugeots along with a KERS system. Good insight on those notes on the Porsche GP car, Leo. I can now see how some teams can save fuel in F1 this season with that system. I know Chrysler made an LMP in 2000 and 2001, but I din't know about that hybrid. Leo, the Mooncraft Shiden is absolutely beautiful. Maybe the DPs could learn style from the Mooncraft Shiden.
JohnMarineTube 1 year ago
2010 ACO LM rules call for all engines to go down in size, LMP1 mtrs will be current LMP2 and /or GT2 sourced [eg- prodcution-based]. So, Pug will likely move from 12 and be smaller, too.
The F1 teams chose to abandon KERS this year, not the rules.
I believe it is planned / required in the 2011 designs. With no fuel stops, fuel save mode plus power to pass option to allow diff race strategies - Just like Willams designed!!
Thanks, as always, for your FLD / SD compliments.

But Williams had a afew FlyWheel KERS vids on YouTube [where we got the F1 footage].
LeoParente 1 year ago
@LeoParente Damn, because I was getting my first car prepped for the regional time attack season, this system sounds very interesting, and it might give me an edge, and nothing in the regulations saying anything against it, so at least for the first season it would be a huge advantage.
ztunelover 1 year ago
STFU about Derek D (read and you can answer your own questions)! He is there.
Just be happy he is back and contributing, I sure as hell am.... Remember the FLD shows in January?!?!? LMFAO!

AWESOME SD today.... but no new TA words... maybe next week! :D

I actually like the shakedown being on a seperate day better now anyways. The show was getting a little too long.
But to be honest I wish they would get rid of that crap they show on Thursday and move shake down to hump day. Its not really all that much car news when you go from Wednesday to Monday without news then bunch the news all together.
That or move JF and the other dude to Tuesday and Leo to Thursday if thats possible I'm sure atleast some of the crew have other jobs

They are putting together, "Battle of the Bands, Miss Redline Spokes Model Contest and Car Club Show & Shine". WTF?!
Performance-related information is being ignored so far... THREE teams posted in 2 weeks!?! The 10' website is a let down SO FAR.

Leo is good, but I am soon realizing that it is the writers of the show that are destroying Fast Lane Daily. Why must every segment be an attempt at a late night monologue? It is one thing to have clown boy Derek D and his foolishness and lack of car knowledge, but don't try and turn Leo into the same. We watch for the news and our love of cars and motorsport, not for the horrible and corny attempts at being funny. Leo, consider going to Autoweek. Unfortunately, that is where I am turning.

EatmyDust1311 1 year ago
FW, I wrote script. So, I'm 'destroying' SD on my own. Have 2 blend facts / info + fun / interest 2 appeal 2 hardcores + casuals.
Here's my view. It's 'just' racing, not world politics. Matters, true. But, it's billions of bucks simply to send a kit of carbon / metal / rubber down the tarmac fast as possible. Not exactly deep stuff.
I love it. But, only time to be totaly serious about racing is behind the wheel at speed.
And I never let fun steal from the info..... Never.

FOTA already agreed not to use it. Because it was promoted by the FIA, they probably don't want to admit that it was a bad idea. If you analyze the designs of this years cars, you see that no one has designed KERS into the cars. Whether a rule change or not is instituted by the FIA, KERS is dead in F1.

Hope to see you here in Montreal for the F1GP. Well need your thoughts on this comeback. By the way, if the F1 championship started this weekend, which team would win this Sunday race? Just a guess for fun.
Congrats.
blesbaupin 1 year ago 5
Need to lobby for a Montreal roadtrip. Good idea.
Last F1 for me was '97 [my last Atlantic yr]. Also had to stop in for a 1-day biz gig when CART ran there 2007 [?]. Was NOT the same. Can't imagine watching NASCAR on the Isle.
I hate Alonso's team poltic's [eg- the McLaren mess] BUT, he is my pure driving choice. And I think the tilt-engine Ferrari will be fast. So....
But, it is a 4 team fight - F, MB, RB, McLaren. Anyone, right now. Really.
