Ferrari FXX Video

[Niko_Fx]

Not a great video, but the first one so far :) (I think)

FXX at the track (http://rapidshare.de/files/3301781/ferrari_fxx_testing_at_ferrari_test_track.mpg.html )

[LTT]

Wow Niko, that's insane. That thing is faster than I imagined.

[Sweeney921]

The sound is orgasmic.

[F1_Master]

WOW! I was expecting a Formula 1 sound, but just, wow!

[Speedracer38]

I cant wait to see one of those in person!! :)

[my porsche]

that sounds like a dirt bike i used to have, 2-stroke and 80cc, you would think they could come up with something better... :( i like the CGT and 360 CS sounds better

[quattro_20v]

I agree the cgt sound is a lot better altho this isnt bad either but nothing special.

[man 430gt]

You guys probably aren't using Rapidshare right then. Make sure you click free at the bottom where they give you a choice for free and premium, then wait like 10 seconds for it to upload at the bottom and start to download the file.

I don't know who the driver is, but judging by the colour of the car and by his courage while putting the foot down that hard in a bumpy surface, he's either Schumacher or a madman (there's a moment there where he shows amazingly fast reflexes). Nice driving, amazing car.

Agreed about the driving, but that's not Schumacher's car. Schumacher's is sans stripe.

Thanks for the info. But this guy also seems to know what he's doing. ;)

If he's spending ~2mil for an FXX and testing/equipment I would hope he can drive, and do it well. :)

I bet some of the owners don't. :)

Who the hell is manuma?

You are too kind.

[LotusLocost]

Very nice video! And amazing sound:eek:

But I can't agree with you on the driving part...:o
He hardly gets a good rythm.. Hard finding good position on the track..
Nervous driving style.. (I wouldn't call it mad-ass reflex, rather uber-nervous reflex..) He don't catch alot of good apexes.. Miss-gearing all the time... (upshifting in the midle of a turn? wtf?)
Watched the video three times.. If you didn't notice this, watch it again:)

And I know the owners are chosen and all that, so he must be somewhat a good driver.. Either this guy drives on an unknown track, or he is just on a sunday-trip..(he IS wearing a blue business shirt:rolleyes: )

I know this car may be a handful or two to drive, but i'd say this is either his first pass of the day, or he just dosn't give it full effort..
If this IS Schumacher.. He can hand over all his titles to.. someone else..

I am not stating that I can do this better anyhow..
It just wasn't that great driving as some of you say:)

[McReis]

Let me clear up my point... I was amazed by his fast reactions and the fact that he didn't seem to be affraid of the huge power of the car.
In fact I was a bit surprised to see him upshifting in the enter of some corners. But since it's hard to see what's happening ahead on the track I don't know why he did it.
It seemed to me he was just warming up a bit. He didn't keep a constant rythm so I suppose he wasn't really trying, but instead showing off the car to his passenger. :)

Thank you for your whitdrawl of your earlyer comment..
I am the ruler of these forumzz... omgz....!!!11!!1!
You are to kind..;)

YOU are too kind!
But just because you drive a Lotus powered buggy doesn't allow you to correct me!!! :D

[LotusLocost]

I'm glad I have only one seat in the buggy....
Cause you'll never get a ride in it...:p

Let's meet at the tracks.. Bring the scissors..
I'll give you a neat haircut..:D

[Coventrysucks]

Miss-gearing all the time... (upshifting in the midle of a turn? wtf?)

Considering how bumpy the track is, and how the car was reacting to the bumps under power, shifting up a gear or too seems rather sensible.

I would not concider the track "bumpy" at all, except it's a bit "bumpy" over the finnish/start straight and entering the first turn after that said straight, thats all... the rest is quite good.. everything seems "bumpy" in such a car...


My conclusion on this however was that this man is on a sunday-trip, his first pass of the day, or just a show off for his passenger, as someone else said...

This is not Schumacher drive style..;)

here is a real bumpy track...

[LotusLocost]

Here is a video from good driving at bumpy Sebring..
IMSA Lites test (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kA1ArqgioyA)
Though in an even more racepreped car than the FXX..
A bit shity video, but very good driving..

Sebring is considered the bumpyest track wich still holds big races in the world.. So Rijeka isn't that bumpy in comparison..
