I really like the late 90s as it transitioned from the GT1 cars into the prototypes at front of the grid.
This race was closer then I thought it would be. But you can see where both cars were good at. Group C had the Horsepower and could just fly on the straights. Where as with the LMP1 had the downforce to make up for its lack of horsepower in the corners. If this was the Porsche LMP1 it would gave been a different story

True. Early 90 le mans cars were pulling more than 6k lbs at 200mph of downforce. I think group c1 likw peugeot 905 and ts010 were st the record highest reaching up to 10 000lbs at 200mph. Never seen since in homologated racing. The new cars just have better tires, springs, brakes etc. But much less downforce than 30 yeara ago. Ts010 was famous for cracking guys ribs during cornering.

@@Tstahl962 in qualifying group C cars used throwaway engines with crazy turbo pressure pushing up to 1000hp, in racetrim power was quite lower because of reliability issues and most of all because cars could refuel a fixed amount of fuel across the whole race so drivers were instructed to alternate full attack pace to way way slower pace in order to stay into the consumes range, generally speaking in racetime overall power rarely was over 800hp. 400km/h in racetrim were scored only by few cars like WM peugeot that purposely sealed all the air ducts in order to get that record at cost of retirment after few laps. Long story short, in race trim top speeds of group C cars were way lower than qualifying, that's why is unlikely that a sauber, a porsche or a jaguar could go that fast at speed trap of first chicane in race trim.
Well now here’s something that I wasn’t expecting! I mean sure we all should know by now that the Nissan LMP car wasn’t the best LMP1 race car. But for it to race against the Mercedes C9 was an interesting battle between: top speed/horsepower vs. aerodynamic technology from more modern racing cars.

Comparing group c to LMP1 is the same as comparing steel and aluminum alloys. Both of them have clear advantages and disadvantages and are excellent vehicles But in terms of value, Group C is even greater. Without that car, we wouldn't have the LMP today
Even the weakest of the LMP1 cars clearly shows that today's racing cars are generally better at cornering to the extent that they can bring their straight-line speed to tail-to-nose just before the checkered flag.
wow that's the first time i've seen the GT-R LM get that close in one of these races. Crazy how much time it gains on the C9 around all the corners.
If only Nissan developed the car for another year and got the hybrid system working so it would be AWD would've been interesting.
And you could do it with another group c, i am a Mercedes fan but i have to addmit that the C9 isn't the fastest, i have seen the pole position of the World sport Car Championship and the Mercedes C11 was almost 5 seconds faster than the C9, and even i have seen the times from the 3.5 liters prototypes and were even faster, almost 4 seconds faster than the C11, this hurt but the fastest group C Car ever Is the Peugeot 905 EVO, after the Toyota TS010 and the Jaguar XJR-14

Game engines cannot quite reflect what these old cars were like. While many aspects were probably inferior to modern cars (autonomy, fuel mapping, tyres), the leading group C cars produced stellar levels of ground effect downforce, much more than the F1s of that era. That was ideal for Le Mans, and probably better than what modern cars may achieve.

Well tbh, the Nissan was not an LMP1. It should have been one but the development was not even a year. When they arrived at Le Mans, there was no hybrid system ready so it was a front engined front wheel driven Prototype with only half the power and half the braking energy of a real LMP1. Also because of the then never suitable and always too cold tires the were slow as fuck... Sadly this project never had a chance, while I believe this concept was promising when taken seriously and with a certain amount of development time. I mean even without the hybrid system they were the fastest car on the straight...

The project was a joke. They never should have gone to Le Mans in 2015. They should've stuck to testing for the rest of the year and then entered Sebring and Spa the following year to get race ready. The problem was that Nissan always wanted maximum publicity without spending the money of running a sustainable team that races for years. Hence gimmicks like the Deltawing, EZOD etc and not proper efforts at winning.
Lets remember the Sauber Mercedes C9 was made for a different le mans, one with no Chicanes

Awesome. Who drove Nissan monster. We know Michael drove Sauber
laptime of nissan gt-r lm is correct but not how it got it... since the flywheel hybrid was never actually working because it was just junk, nissan picked the up the 2MJ energetic class, so because of the lowest ERS class the car had higher fuel flow values that granted much more than 500hp of your specs (realistically not less than 600hp), infact the car wasn't that slow in the speed trap of first straight, it could go 330km/h rather than just 315km/h. On the other side your nissan is way more "optimist" about aero... I see in your video it could get into the porsche sector at 240km/h... that was just a wet dream for the real car that had poor and underdeveloped aero, terrible understeer due most of weight on front and suspensions so unstable and awful that drivers simply couldn't even run over kerbs... likely it had a better corner speed than a group C car, but not that good like your video. BTW rebellion R13 and BR1 were lmp1 with about 750hp at LM and they were in the range of 340km/h at first straight speed trap, considering group C cars were slightly more powerful in race trim but had way worse aero, I doubt they could go 360km/h at first chicane speed trap (not to mention that they needed much more space to brake)

Because it is!
Please for the love of god stop the voiceover
isn't Peugeot 905 or Toyota TS010 the best Group C car? 3:44 is way to slow for the best group C car. 3:24 is more closely :)
I thought the C11 is better.
When did LMP1 get faster then Group C? LMP900? Diesel era? LMP1-H?

LMP1-H and LMP900 were faster too pretty sure.

Good question. If we're talking classic Group C like the Sauber C9 maybe by the mid to late 90s. But if we're including the 3.5L Group C rocketships like the Peugeot 905, Toyota TS010 etc near the end of Group C then it could be quite a bit later. Maybe the Audi R10 or something like that.

That depends on what era of Group C you're talking about. If you're talking about late 80's Group C Cars, you you only need to look at the late 90's cars and they're already faster. Early 90's Group C cars.... That's a different story, the first car to officially lap faster than the Peugeot 905 on Le Mans was the Peugeot 908 in I believe 2008, then they just became faster.

@@Starfire_Storm- I guess the track layout changes makes it difficult to accurately pinpoint the year the cars actually got quicker. But I can imagine it wasn't too much earlier than 2008. Remarkable really.

@@mr8I7 Well, the track layout hasn't changed much since the early 90's, just the first sector got a bit slower in I believe 2002, so perhaps a few seconds slower.
1st Nissan Nismo GTR is NOT the worst LMP1 of all times. Thats the Ston martin AMR-One or the ByKoles CLM P1/01 2nd the Sauber is Not the best Group C. Thats the Porsche 956 or Mazda 787B
