just another fanboy.
notice the race version has quite some modifications to aid its' winning ways... and in no way does the true production car handle like the GTR, LM or whatever letters you want to insert.... although, im sure the aero kits do help it at speed

in responce to that, look at the way he handles the car, he has some serious driving experience... the speed of his reflexes is very quick, his downshifting; the way he grasps the wheel.
but go ahead, and think its just the driver, or the weight distro with a passenger.
what you see in this video is the exact same thing i've been talking about for quite some time; with direct contact with a licenced racer who has one.
seems like too much coincidence to me 8)

this is a typical thread and post of a hater!!
to complain about a cars handling from a vid of a douche bag that doesn't seem to care about taking it a little on the easy side with the engine of the new car.
for anyone to try and criticise any cars handling from a vid like this is to show complete idiocy!! |
just a pair of fanboys right in a row.
yes, i do loath the McLaren F1; and this video demonstrates what has been discussed previously... without my previously seeing this video BTW.
in the end, it is my unbiased look at this video in hopes that i would be wrong, and mistaken; and have to dislike the F1 for its style ; and its fan-base alone.
you show me the handling tests where it doesn't suck... Tiff clearly doesn't push the car that hard in any of the TG videos; but hey... if you see that as Tiff pushing hard, then good for you; enjoy the car. since its my observations alone; and if you want to agree, or disagree.... i could really care less TBH.
I think there has been enough evidence posted within this VERY topic to suggest the F1 has serious balance issues, posted by both Sentra_dude, and Lotus; besides this "end all proof" :-p that the F1's are piss poor handling cars for what it is.
what did this video spark?
a discussion, which led to more evidence of the SAME thing i've been talking about for many moons; even brought up by the McLarens' fan base here.
I have no real idea why the car is so loved by so many; but honestly.... the car is no hero; nor does it deserve that kind of attention; besides its' rarity.
the car is definately not deserving, anymore then any other exotic. It simply doesn't belong on a pedistal; as people will get let down by its performance if/when they ever actually get in contact with it, drive it, ride in it etc.
