"conspiracy theory." Bro, when I was a kid we were tricked into thinking rap and pop stars had these ultra mansions.. MTV cribs and all that. Its common knowledge now that the studios actually owned all the cars and houses or rented them. The same goes for the twitch little kid shit.

Old homosexuals with paralyzed senses and reflexes being the only ones who can afford those cars is what made them dangerous. Frick those geriatrics.
You fricking homosexual. It's unfair to everybody, because even those old fricks should've gotten to enjoy those cars back when they were young and had the abilities to drive them to the fullest.
Instead we have this shitty system where by the time you're able to ~~*afford*~~ the car, you're a decrepit antique with 1/10th of the eyesight and hearing and 10x the reaction times you used to have. Grim shit.

You sound like a bitter millenial poorgay. It's amazing how I can still buy one of those Corvettes from that picture for the same price I paid for my 1960s muscle car that I chose instead. Maybe try getting a job, homosexual.

the official story was that it was a stock r34 with a 180 kph (112 mph) speed limiter which hurt the gtrs time on dottinger, foxhole and adenauer badly enough for the cobalt, with an unlimited top speed of over 160 mph, to win. even given that the ss cobalt is still based as hell

Yeah realistically an R34 should be sub 8 minutes, probably only by ~5-10 seconds, but still.

They don't when you run modern tires on them and use common sense. The transmission is at the rear and you almost sit over the rear axle in these so they actually put their power down pretty well compared to other high power F/R vehicles. I can floor a 200hp pickup truck on a icy turn and spin out too. Power really has nothing to do with it.
Nah, that one's 100% on the driver >floor it >yank the wheel to the left >rear steps out >panic >yank the wheel to the opposite side
Had the driver just gently countersteered and let off the throttle slightly instead of going full moron, he'd be completely fine.
Yeah, rich morons buy expensive, fast cars and don't know how to drive them. Inevitably it leads to stupid shit like this >I turned off traction control and stomped the accelerator and the car just lost all grip, literally no one could have predicted that!
Lift-off snap oversteer.
Too much power and too much grip.
Weight transfers to the rear under acceleration, lightening the steering and reducing steering input. It got a little squirrely. He steered into the skid and then let off the gas. The weight slammed back down on the fronts giving sudden traction to the steers, while at the same time reducing traction from the rears.
Looks like he was pretty quick on trying to correct, but the sideways force imparted to the rear in that first few milliseconds of the fronts regaining full grip kicked it out.
You can see his tires are straight here, but he needed to be countersteering the other way to catch it
So much grip on the fronts with the weight transferred to it and so little on the rear when spun up or going sideways = loop de loop if you don't catch it within the first tenth of a second.
A "great handling car" can become a very bad handling car with too much power applied, shifting tremendous amounts of handling from one end to the other.
Its why sports cars don't need 900hp to be "sports cars." All you need is enough power to get you into the turn at max lateral traction. Doing 900MPH down the straight is not "sportiness," it's about throwing the car about with precision, and it's pretty hard to be precise when one extra millimeter of pedal travel spins your rears up to 900MPH going around a 70MPH corner.
Relatively affodable with huge amounts of power and torque = lots of accidents. That's what happens when you give power to the common man. Truely the most based of cars, respecting true drivers, and killing off morons.
I'm thinking about buying a used corvette. How do I not crash my car when I want to let er rip? Avoid flooring it right off the line, easing into it? If I do get a bit loose, do I let off the gas lightly but keep on it?
>almost 600 horses and 800 torque

Never mentioned anything about unfairness, just said old ppl without driving skills are inadequate at hooning powerful cars.
Put on your reading glasses grandpa.
>Why do these cars always spin out of control?
they are very powerful cars usually driven by moronic americans
>front heavy lightweight rear
not true, the first gen was 50/50 and the subsequent generations had more rear biased weight distribution

IIRC the early ones didn't have traction control and that started the meme.

>The transmission is at the rear
>viper
haha what? That's news to me.
Actually it's not I was thinking of the Vette. But it still does sit pretty far back into the cab.
original one had no nannys: no abs, no tractional control, no stability control, the reputation has stuck ever since
why do european cars always crash even in a straight line? aren't they supposed to handle better?
Nah, that one's 100% on the driver
>floor it
>yank the wheel to the left

Had the driver just gently countersteered and let off the throttle slightly instead of going full moron, he'd be completely fine.

Yeah thats just a dumbass customer doing a testdrive.
In the past entertainers need to you know, go to work to make money. Zoomers can sit on their ass at home and do the same job and they still whine.
No traction/stability control,
Sharp power curve after 3000rpm,
morons are running them old tires because they are too cheap to by newer ones.
Relatively affodable with huge amounts of power and torque = lots of accidents. That's what happens when you give power to the common man. Truely the most based of cars, respecting true drivers, and killing off morons.

I'm thinking about buying a used corvette. How do I not crash my car when I want to let er rip? Avoid flooring it right off the line, easing into it? If I do get a bit loose, do I let off the gas lightly but keep on it?
Practice breaking loose in an open area where you can't crash. That way you've experienced it multiple times and understand how it acts.
