"Eat my dust!" - McMurtry Spéirling

I mean they already did ban it. The fan car idea originated from F1 in the 1970s

Obviously a car like that can't race, since it's basically sabotaging whoever comes behind, producing the worst race possible (if people complain that F1 doesn't have enough overtakes, imagine with that...), which is why fan cars were already banned in the 70/80s. However, it could be extremely cool to have one of them run a few laps to clean track before the race itself. That would make the first laps much safer and with more overtakes! Plus the public would love to see it.

NASCAR sometimes drive around a truck with a jet engine strapped to the back to clear the track. That would probably have come in useful for clearing the track of water during Spa a few years back where it got rained off If you had fan cars in F1 you’d probably have a regulation that means the output got shot straight upwards, to avoid affecting aero as much as possible on the following car. Like how the modern rear wings are supposed to push the air up and out of the way

Now that is seriously impressive. Looks to me like they lost about 5 seconds with the overtakes. The speed difference between the Spierling and what I assume were GT3 cars was huge. Factor in only 80% power and downforce, and I would say that full power/downforce and a clear lap should be close to 1:30 or better.

@@NewBeginnings571 I think you are probably correct. Perhaps they could use an active flap to vent the sealed area, like what the Valkyrie has in the diffuser to prevent the downforce from overloading the road tyres?

@@James1HiscoxI’m uncertain of the nature of the oval seal under the car but that sounds like a good idea. That way you can keep the fans up and not wait for them to spool.

Everyone else is saying the same thing, but this thing needs to do a lap at the Nurburgring. And also needs a racing series for itself. This will be the kind of EV that even turns the heads of some petrolheads, more recognition through feats and racing series' will be critical for this to occur

I vote for raw sounds only. We don't need that cheesy royalty free generic rock n' roll!

On the high speed stuff it still looks to be significantly down on F1 and even F2, but in the low speed im guessing this will eat any other race car alive. I'm looking forward to seeing where this type of car can go in the future with some tweaks. Do you have it setup to ramp down the fans automatically when going down a straight ?

I would like to see video from the cars that were passed. That must have been a crazy view.

It´s a damn fast car for sure. But i am interested to see the battery usage, for say atleast 10 laps if it was driven in like it was in a competition and how it perform over 1-2 hours in that setting. I love seeing the speed and handling of it , it is probably way more impressive seeing it with your own eyes at the track than on a video, even on video it´s bonkers! *Sláinte*

My neck hurts after watching that

Fucking Christ the grip at low speed is mind boggling

With Dyson livery, it would have been epic marketing.

I mean F1 teams spend millions and millions of dollars a year designing their cars to be fast both on a single lap and also over 50. This is a time attack car designed to go fast for 1 lap. And the F1 car is still miles quicker. So you can’t even compare them in the same sentence imo.

Thats just over 14 seconds slower than a current Gen F1 car with traffic that cost easily 1+ second. That's insane.

It also has a vacuum sucking it to the ground and blowing the air out the back. So that's part of the reason for the extra dust

First the itish gave the world the back too the future car and now they give us the future car

Maybe it could do the ring in under 6 min. Mostly limited by the top speed. The GT3s had no chance against it. Imagine what Niki Lauda would have said about it, this is the car that the Gordon Murray BT42 could have become.

The dust does seem a bit wild, im sure the other racers dont like getting sandblasted

There is not way this can be used on a regular track day.. No idea where you use it if you buy one.
