Correcting the racing line inside the corner slows the car and burns rubber. One should "predict" what is coming next and put the car in the right spot to be fast on corners, the fastest possible without losing the grip.
@jshads88 Well, I'm no expert, but one of the red ones he was coming up on near the end looks like a 250 GTO, and beings they have sold for over 30 million, I don't think he too impressed by the 600,000 F40. He probably has 3, lol.
@94CSPmiata It looks like the car has a bit of oversteer coming off the brakes that he's correcting. The middle of the corner looks to understeer a bit in the slow ones, and then obviously he'll have to correct oversteer on the exit with that beastly power.
Too many boring clips of the F40 on public roads, this is what is it all about!!!! truly superb Youtube video clip of the F40LM, thanks a lot for sharing!
@nicbarrow heavy steering, bigger wheel increases leverage which then makes it easier to drive so it doesn't rip your arms from your joints when it snaps sideways which it will at some stage:).
do you actually own this car? Or were you just driving it more this event? Either way it is clear that you are a talented racing driver from the responsiveness of your steering.
What a privilege to be able to drive one of the greatest supercars in history.
Just found this vid, thank you for posting! That car has so much power... Lucky you for having a chance to drive it! I saw myself in your video on the outside of the banked corner, hopefully you'll be there again this year, I know I will! I have some great pics of your car but sadly youtube won't allow me to link to them here, oh well.
@thedomonator Exactly, the F40 has a straight cut non syncromesh gearbox. For the road use, it was possible to have it with the syncromesh gearbox as an option.
@cskynet Tu non sai minimamente cosa sia la F40!Nn sto parolando delle ferrari odierne!Ricorda che prima di giudicare qualsiasi cosa bisogna sempre conoscere i fatti come stanno.Per darti una dritta veloce,la F40 nacque nel 1987 quando all'epoca tutte e dico tutte le supercar erano non un gradino,ma una scalinata ben sotto alla F40, e in essa è racchiuso lo spirito della primissima "GRUPPO B" stradale,eX poterla portare al limite ci vuole fegato e technica,mica elettronica e sensori di merda
the greatest thing about the f40 lm, is that the whole thing is tuned to race. It has no power steering, no antilock breaks(who needs them your in a damn ferrari), and no traction control, just all raced out.
I'm not trying to be an ass but are you sure it is a LM? Doesn't it sounds more like a regular F40? (listen the sound of that LM driven by jacques Lafitte, it is totaly different!).
Oh my gosh I love this car..you have know idea. The F40 lm is an awesome car, also the later GTE is lovely!..725 hp and more..to feel those turbos kick in..oh you were very luck to drive this car! Its my dream car..It makes my heart skip a beat!
Only driven it in simulations. Very little chance of ever actually experiencing one in real life.
But from what i could grasp from the sim; very powerfull and savage car. handles great under throttle, sometimes though you need to let off the throttle then mash it again to get through very fast kinks (such as going on to the back straight of Road America). Turbo lag is very unforgiving when you're in too high of a gear, butonce built up it rockets away.
What do you do for a living? :) Wish i one day could afford such a car.
