The cars were banned because they were such MONSTERS and no one could compete. Try 2.5 G lateral cornering acceleration. acceleration like an AA fuel dragster full on and so fierce the drivers had to have their legs in slings so that their feet would not slide off the pedals (this was old style rear drive. The 917 would give an interesting hurry up to the EVO !! BUT BUT THEN have a look at what (MONSTER !! ON STEROIDS !!!) the guys at the Porsche Works in Zuffenhausen were quietly working on !! My god !!! For the 4 wheeled equivalent to the NASA SATURN 5 ROCKET, the engine a 5 liter flat 16 cylinder (NOT 4 litre !) with a crank so long they took the power off the crank shaft from the middle to eliminate flex and it was to go in one of two Group C prototype chasis with "ALL WHEEL DRIVE !!! You got that Ian ???!! That was back in the 1970s with none of the latest hi tech stuff. Of course the project was cancelled (Damn !!) but you can see the motors and chasis etc at the Porsche Museum !!!

At Holloman AFB, John Paul Stapp made history aboard the Sonic Wind I rocket sled on December 10, 1954, when he set a land speed record of 632 mph in five seconds, subjecting him to 20 Gs of force during acceleration. Although he had a surplus of volunteers for the dangerous ride, he chose himself for the mission, not wanting to place another in such a potentially hazardous position. When the sled stopped in just 1.4 seconds, Stapp was hit with a force equivalent to 46.2 Gs, more than anyone had yet endured voluntarily. Though he managed half a smile as he was pulled from the sled he was in great pain, and his eyes flooded with blood from the bursting of almost all their capillaries. As Stapp was rushed to the hospital, he worried that one or both of his retinas had detached, leaving him blind. Fortunately, by the next day, he had regained enough of his normal vision to be released by his doctors, though his eyesight would never fully recover.

Porsche used another incredible Hybrid-System in the 911 GT3 R Hybrid. It was a flywheel on the passengers seat charged by 2 front-electric-engines which worked as a generator while breaking. The power accelerated the flywheel up to 40000 rpm. This rotating energy can be used for acceleration for the 2-front-electric-engines. So for some seconds the 911 has 4WD. The power output was about 200 PS. 488 PS from the 6Ender-Boxer + 200 PS Hybrid.

I think Koenigsegg just set a new record. 0-400kph-0 and 0-250mph-0. I can't remember the time put it's a new world record for a production car.

So the 919 Evo produces a total of 1160bhp. In 1973 I went to Silverstone for an Interserie (Group 8) race in which Leo Kinnunen beat Willi Kauhsen over two legs, both driving Porsche 917/10 Spyders. They were 5.3 litre turbos producing over 1000bhp . I remember the rear tyres were 24 inches wide and the differential was welded solid to handle the power. They were reaching 220mph at the end of Hangar Straight. Awesome beasts and that was 49 years ago.

The v4 on its own has 500 kw with high fuel saving rules its crazy +394kw elektro power 🥵

The earliest automotive use of V4 engines were in Grand Prix racing (later called 'Formula One') cars. One of the pioneering V4 engines was in the 1898 Mors rear-engined car built in France.[3][4] At the time, the lack of vibration from the V4 engine was a key selling point.[5] However, the car's V4 engine was replaced by a conventional inline-four engine by 1901. In the 1907 French Grand Prix, the car entered by J. Walter Christie used a 19,891 cc (1,214 cu in) V4 engine, the largest engine ever used in a Grand Prix race.[6] The engine was mounted transversely in the front and the car was front-wheel drive. The car retired from the French Grand Prix after just four laps, however, it later set a speed record of 164 km/h (102 mph).[7] The first V4 engine used in production cars was the Lancia V4 engine that was first used in the 1922 Lancia Lambda.[8] The Lancia engine was a narrow-angle design with an angle of 20 degrees between the banks and a single cylinder head with one overhead camshaft shared by both banks. It also used aluminium for both the block and head (which was unusual for the time).[9] Lancia produced V4 engines until 1976, when they were replaced by flat-four engines. The 1960-1994 ZAZ Zaporozhets is a Soviet city-type car that used a rear-mounted V4 engine.[9] This engine was based on the design used in the LuAZ-967 amphibious military vehicle. It featured air-cooling with a magnesium block and was produced in displacements from 0.7-1.2 L (43-73 cu in).[10] The AMC Air-cooled 108 was a 108 cu in (1.8 L) engine built from 1960 to 1963 for use in the lightweight M422 Mighty Mite military vehicle.[11][12] The M422 developed was by American Motors Corporation (AMC) in the United States and specifically designed to be transported by helicopter.[13][14] Beginning in the 1960s, Ford's European divisions produced two unrelated V4 engines.[9] The first was the Ford Taunus V4 engine, produced in Germany from 1962 to 1981. The Taunus was a 60-degree V4 engine with water cooling and overhead valves. Initially designed for use in front-engined cars, it was used in various Ford models and also used in the front-wheel-drive Saab 95, Saab 96, and Saab Sonett models. It was also used in the mid-engine Matra 530 sports car.[15][16][17] The second Ford V4 engine was the Ford Essex V4 engine, produced in the United Kingdom from 1965 to 1977 and used in several Ford Corsair, Capri, Consul, Zephyr, and Transit models.[18] Although designed separately from the Taunus engine, the Essex also was a 60-degree V4 with water cooling, overhead valves, and designed for use in front-engined cars/vans. The Porsche 919 Hybrid LMP1 racing car used in the 2014-2017 seasons used a 2.0 L (122 cu in) 90-degree turbocharged V4 engine that was mid-mounted.[19]

If you find the V4 incredible for power, you should check out the 600hp 3 banger from koenigsegg.. Also, yes, top end aero grip cars have, in many ways, more in common with certain aircraft.

I don't know for sure, if that's why Porsche chose a V4 engine, but 90°-V4 with 90°-270°-90°-270° ignition timing is supposed to get torque better down (or rather: don't overstrain the tires by giving them that small amount of extra-time between the firing of its cylinders) because of its uneven firing order. That's also why quite a few race bikes use V-configurations, and the Yamaha R1 has an inline four with a crossplane crank (270° - 180° - 90° - 180° ignition).

Have you checked out the Can-Am series from the 70’s and 80’s, including the Porsche 917/30 called the Turbo Panzer. The fastest race car built at the time and maybe still.

The cornering forces quoted are similar to those in F1. Where the 919 Evo beats F1 is in top speed. Those 4 big tyres and barn door rear wing aren't that aerodynamic.

Funny thing is, if they make an F1 car without rules, it would still look like the 919 Evo. The open wheels add to drag but they need to be kept that way due to the rules, so if you take away the rules the F1 wheels while be covered like an LMP car.

And an LMP car without rules would be a single seater. Porsche didn't change the "2 seat" layout of the 919 due to not wanting to redesign a new car but just modifying an existing car and changing a car to central single seat would required a complete redesign of the chassis.

Hello Ian, you wanted to expand your horizon more on motorsports and you are doing a fine job at it. Love ur enthusiasm. Just a suggestion, but you will like how the Mazda 787b made history at the 24 hours of lemans defeating Mercedes and other big cars. Check out ideal media for the history

There are also defuser system UNDER the car. The main reason of it's down force. That's why the pilot is sitting with his legs up. They needed that space. You can see it in one of JP Performance videos. The record driver shows it in that video. Sadly I don't know the name of the video anymore. But I guess searching for "JP Performance Porsche 919 Evo" will do the job.

It happens (car is decommissioned) because most of these cars are test beds for new tech that will eventually land on road cars. Maybe we'll be seeing some VW/Audi with V4 bangers in the future. The thing now, as it is in F1, is using e-fuel (full synthetic gasoline), made via electrolysis of Carbon Dioxide, paired with Hidrogen to create new benzene and gasoline molecules, which are all Carbon and Hidrogen combinations with the main molecule being benzine. Meaning that cars using this e-fuel can produce their own fuel via Carbon Dioxide which will be captured again and re-processed at a facility later on. The CO2 emmissions will drop significantly and it is told to be the last nail in the Electric Car coffin. The only culprit here is the electricity needed to generate more e-fuel due to the Carbon and Hidrogen needed to be removed from CO2 and H2O respectively vie electrolysis.

the porsche 956 is highly regarded as the most sucessful race car ever, it was the first car to have properly sorted ground efects. there is footage of the 956 nearly hitting 400km down the old mulsanne straight of le mans with Derek Bell as the driver, the 962 is the same car as the 956 but with the driver now moved behind the front axle line. it had 2 brake calipers per front wheel it had a four speed gearbox , the engine was a 2.65 litre flat six engine based on the 911 engine but with 4v heads and liquid cooling.

Lancia won the Italian Rally Championship from 1965 to 1973, and the International Championship For Manufacturers (predecessor of the WRC) in 1972 with the Fulvia. Its power plant was, you guessed it, a V4.

Ian, I like the way you think! I want to see a totally unrestricted no limits F1 car at Spa and the Ring!

I think the main reason for both Audi and Porsche pulling out from LMP1H class was due to costs and since the FIA did nothing about implementing a cost cap despite the constant nagging from the teams (mainly Audi and Porsche, with Toyota signing the letters but not being vocal about it - as usual), it got to the point where the camel's back broke. IIRC, there were some statements in 2017-2018 that said the R&D costs for those cars were somewhere around €400M per season, but don't quote me on that. No matter how much tech the teams got out of it that could be used for road cars (and according to them they got A LOT of useful things from all that R&D which made it somewhat worth it to run for 5-6 years), they just couldn't keep dumping that much money on hybrid tech that was proving to not be reliably applicable on road vehicles and they just moved their focus to Formula E and relevant tech. It is also relevant to mention the fact that those cars were designed to run for 24h which, in a way, is a live stress test under extreme conditions on any component that could be used on a road car, unlike F1. This is also why you see both Audi and Porsche not getting into the F1 grid as teams but mainly as a power unit supplier (Audi) and R&D cooperation + usage of specialized infrastructures type deal (Porsche with Red Bull). They already know how much of a headache it is and what they actually want/need from F1 from their experience running the LMP1H.

Check out this finnish kid, Kalle Rovanperä - first year of rally driving at age of 8. Kalle is now WRC driver. And another good one is finnish F1 driver Kimi, Top 10 Moments of Kimi Raikkonen Brilliance.

Love your videos 👏🏼🤘🏼 You should check out what kind of legal street cars you can get in Germany if you have enough money. I recommend the videos from a show called "grip", especially the BMW M6 Hurricane or M5 Hurricane. I strongly believe that you going to love those videos. Greetings from Canada 😉🤘🏼

Please look at BTCC racing in the UK in the 90s Battling at an epic scale They had short but brutal banging races

Recommend you watch videos from Fernando Alonso cracking walnuts with his neck, so much regarding neck training for drivers

You should watch Goodwood Festival of Speed. All kinds of sportscars and supercars drive a hillclimb. Rally, F1, drift.

By the way F1 took the WR in Spa back 1 Year later in the Qualifying

volkswagen IDR is crazy fast, also take a look at the AM Valkyrie wich is a combined project of Aston Martin and Redbull racing, Adrian Newey is the lead designer of the car

At Holloman AFB, John Paul Stapp made history aboard the Sonic Wind I rocket sled on December 10, 1954, when he set a land speed record of 632 mph in five seconds, subjecting him to 20 Gs of force during acceleration. Although he had a surplus of volunteers for the dangerous ride, he chose himself for the mission, not wanting to place another in such a potentially hazardous position. When the sled stopped in just 1.4 seconds, Stapp was hit with a force equivalent to 46.2 Gs, more than anyone had yet endured voluntarily. Though he managed half a smile as he was pulled from the sled he was in great pain, and his eyes flooded with blood from the bursting of almost all their capillaries. As Stapp was rushed to the hospital, he worried that one or both of his retinas had detached, leaving him blind. Fortunately, by the next day, he had regained enough of his normal vision to be released by his doctors, though his eyesight would never fully recover.

DTM is a interesting race class as well.

I read somewhere that it's the most complex sports car ever made. And in defense of LMP1, F1 is really faster but it not endure 24 hours in a row. And Congrats ! Very nice video ! :)

F1 is heavily restricted. An engine for example should last many races and must be economic and rev is restricted too. The size of wings, wheels, everything is regulated. With this restricted car at Spa Ham and Bottas were slightly faster than this unrestricted 919 Evo.

This is not LMP1 version but unrestricted Evo version. It is an one lap car.

Adrian Newey, who is Red Bull Racing's head of aerodynamics actually made an unrestricted car in cooperation with Gran Turismo 5. It's called the Red Bull X2010 and so quick that humans would pass out due to all the G-forces during cornering. It's supposed to have a 1600HP V6 engine which gives it a 300mph+ top speed. We're talking sub 3:30 laps on the Nordschleife in a simulator. that's *two minutes* quicker than the 919 EVO. The car is absolute insanity. Unfortunately no running prototype has been built, but one body of it exists. to put it bluntly: the X2010 is every aerodynamicists wet dream

15:58 it’s very similar to F1 drivers getting 4-5G while cornering and 6G while braking

Cool car. as was the 956 and the greatest of all. the 917. if you have a rainy Sunday look up the Paul Newman movie, Lemans. got some great driving scenes which Newman and other top drivers of the 70s drove the then current Porsche Ferrari etc big bangers.

If you want to watch a great video on the Porsche 956 you should check out Chris Harris video on it where he also interviews one of the engineers who build that thing.

When you bounce back between saying "Porsch" and "Porscha", the second one is a lot closer to what it is actually pronounced in Germany.. To pronounce the letter "E" in Porsche like Germans do is probably tough for an American: It's kinda like the E in Hell or Heli more than the E in Help ("HAAALP!") for example, but still slightly different.. Anyways, when you say it like "Porscha" i guarantee every German will understand what you mean - i heard way worse pronunciations either way. Keep up the great work - i'm not even big on motorsports but i thoroughly enjoy your videos.

Going fast with lots of grip and having to do tight turns zig-zagging,yeah its a neck breacker!!!!A Carbon Fiber helmet and a Neck Guard with your right size,can be your best friends!

Hey can u react to some drag cars I have some channel and things u can look up Fuel tech- they have crazy hub dynos for drag cars X275 drag cars - drag cars on a thin tire Drag car takes flight- mostly radial drag cars flying And finaly no prep drag racing where they race on tracks where they do not make they track sticky. There is alot of smoke with this one

We get electric grand prix open wheel here on TV from time to time They swap car half way through race as battery don't last whole race They sound just like scale electric cars we played with as kids Only reason we get to see it sometimes is some Aussie race them and won 🏆

Are you talking about Formula E? They no longer have to change cars halfway through races, I believe they only did that for the first couple of seasons(they must be on their 6 or 7th season by now) before the battery tech improved enough for them to manage to complete a full race distance.

I'm old enough to be when 100hp out of a 1,000cc motor was thought of as high performance. 720hp from a 2,000cc V4 isn't something that was even considered possible. 360hp/1,000cc? Over 3 times better. A 360% percent increase. Holy crap.

React to the BMW/Mclaren Longtail that dominated the 24 hours of Le Mans in the Late 90s One of my favorite cars of all time!!!!!!!

That's why we love Porsche. Everyone is a Porsche fan even if they say they are not.

Very cool Video 💪

First Hell Yeah Loved the Class C Cars Keep Up The Great Videos!!!!!

The Lotus had skirts to suck it onto the track and if correct even a suction fan.

Interesting title to the clip. However, I ask you to research and look into Australia's own super car the Brabham BT62. Listen to it's sound!!!! and then check out the stats!!! the go back and listen to it's sound again....Now that's a nice sound!! 👍

I suspect an unleashed F1 car, although very cool, would not make a ton of sense because youre getting to the limit of drivability. They already keep F1 cars in check to make them slowers so that humans can still drive those damn things. An unleashed F1 car would just knock drivers unconcious under braking and in corners.

F1 drivers pull up to 5G on a lot of corners. They have to train their neck muscles constantly.

If you have the chance and if you haven't already, you should really react to the Mazda 787b Incredible video btw

Absolutely check out VW ID R on Pikes Peak, it's nuts.

The V4 engine was developed by Ford of England to use in the Ford Transit

F1 engines are not V4 2 litre but V6 however are only 1.6 litres and produce similar horsepower at maximum settings

The 919 on the TT course, that would get some views.

some of the first ford transits had a v4 bk in the 60-70s

16:25 well, yeah, f1 cars get even more G forces in corners

Not too surprising. 1969-70 Porsche 917 with a flat 12, boxer, was said to be faster than a F-1, of the day, at certain tracks.

Porsche is a two syllable word. Source- a co-worker at a Porsche race shop in CA who had worked at the Porsche factory for 4 years.

I look forward to the Cadillac project GTP Hypercar, which should appear in Rolex 24 hour Daytona 2023. Might be an entry for Le mans

wonder how quick it would be around the TT course...

Reason why the car was retired was they wanted to focus on Formula E. But also being part of the VW Group and Audi withdrawing from prototype racing after the Diesel gate scandal. They decided to focus else where. How ever they are making a return next season. Penske and Porsche.

remember the 2.0 V4 still produces over 700 bhp

If you get to the nurburgring, you can take a ring taxi which comes equipped with a certified race driver to take you around at speed!!

first thing the fórmula 1 today has 2 cilinder 1.8 and produt 1000 or more horspawore and has 800 kg

I have seen the original video what was very cool

The Ring is so tight and drastic it is called "The Green Hell" !

They retire the car because there is a new rule book. The old car was made to fit the LMP1 rule. (P stand for Prototype). The new rule is called LMH, H stand for Hypercar. So there is a new one, specially for the new rules.

King of the track!😊😊😊

The most funny thing is when the engineer goes over the car and what they changed and at the end is like "ohyeah, and we gave it skirts" 😂 which is like the most impactful thing

If I was to make a F1 car as fast as possible I would use the six wheel design from Tyrell and the fan from the brabbam of the same year I believe and a turbo engine from the 80s on qualifying boost pressure
