GT40 at Hockenheim

Found this on another forum:

Hockenheim Historic 2010 - Ford GT40 Inboard | historischer Motorsport | Videos

Might be of interest

Would have been a great video had they taken the time to park the windshield wiper.. It was right in the line of sight at all times..

I was hoping that the ill handling of the car was mostly attributed to cold tires, but it apparently got worse as the session progressed.. Might have also been influenced by the driver's mistreatment of the gearbox (which got him out of shape on a couple of occasions)..

Still though - the sites and sounds were marvelous and thank you for posting!

Yep, the wiper blade should've been repositioned. Looks as though a little less bar at the rear or more at the front would've reduced the driver's work load, aka, constantly correcting for oversteer. Among other things, such as feedback from the driver, this shows how a video can be used in helping with chassis set-up.

Thankyou for posting the link. He was certainly going faster than most others on the track. A good video - thanks for sharing.
