I think maybe one more repost of this video is in order to provide that 'oh f.c.u.k what the hell have I done' look that map81 provides the camera should do this video jusitice :lol:

Normally I wouldn't say 'bad repost' but the topic with this video is still being discussed on ... its not even on the next page yet!

I suggest this to everyone.

Before you make a comment about someone else's driving, think about all the stupid things you have done.

THEN consider that, at the speed that we travel on the track, there's about 1/10 of space for error, hence if you've had no track experience, then i suggest you keep quiet and go try it for yourself.

Furthermore, i might not look much on the footage of how fast the car was travelling, it was speed of about 175-200km/hr.

It is the same concept and perception of how fast a car travels down the quarter.

Road car done up with street tyres weren't made to be doing that type of speed through that type of 'beating'.

MAP-81's experience that day was not in anyway shameful or to be laughed at.

Show some respect! As he was kind enough to show us the footage and allow us to learn from it! OTHERWISE! how about the people making comments show us how bad of a driver you are with the silly things you've done?!

Take it easy out there.

(MAP-81 was sensible to push that hard only on the track, hence don't try anything at that speeds on the road.)

Speak to myself or anyone that participates on track events if you want to know more about the how difficult it is to drive in ideal race manner.

Agreed also, it's like the other thread that has now started into a competition of how fast you can go... Who really cares, how often do you drive at the cars terminal velocity... but back on topic... having had the track time and defensive driver training I personally find that I am now more cautious with everyday driving having found the cars limits on a couple of occasions, car control is improved and better understood.

There is a time and a place for everything, Mark chose the right time and place to test the car out legally and properly. Reaction times are shortened dramatically at those speeds so he was lucky to get away with the little damage incurred, but I'm sure he is now a better driver for it!!!

Love that last comment Blue stivo absolutely priceless and also a good pun on MAP81's behalf. :lol:

As Pippy has stated till you've been on a track you don't qualify to comment on this incident and bag somebody's driving if you've never done it yourself cause it ain't as easy as it looks ;)

      Android auto

      OK. Does any of Toyota's advertising material mention Android Auto? If so then kick up a stink, with Toyota management, about misrepresentation and false advertising, reminding them of the hefty fines. Herb

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      It's possible that it could be something fouling or dirt build up, dry, or a broken mechanism, so have a look and give the mechanism some lubrication, most likely though, it'll be the actuator. I found one for a good price on Ebay, $25 delivered: Front Door Lock Actuator Right Side For Toyota Camry 1997-2001 | eBay

      Query about the correct rotors for 2006 ACV40 Camry.

      Hi, I'm looking at a set of front rotors for an ACV40 2006, 2.4L Camry. I got a good price on some RDA's at Sparesbox. However both RDA8112 and RDA7686 show as for my car and I'm wondering what the difference is and if there were changes to the rotors during the model production. So does anyone know which rotor is the correct one? Many thanks in advance.

      Android auto

      It's a simple solution though? Already laying down 60k for a RAV4, so what's another 1k on a phone to make everything work seamlessly? 👍

      Your solution is akin to suggesting that switching to a different car manufacturer would resolve the issue. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for using an iPhone as you do.

      Turboed Corolla Overbuilt?

      that engine will be fine, the rods are the main thing to be concerned about. The 2860 is a decent turbo for the 1zz but in this day and age I'd go for a G25-550. The injectors might be on the small side, we run DW1000's. You need a full length injector, the shorter injectors with adaptors like ID1050x dont fit the 1zz head. You don't need an aftermarket intake manifold, if you do go down that path, avoid the CNC innovations unit, it's garbage. Do the boost control with a MAC valve and control it with the aftermarket ECU of your choice, I use Link stuff on most of my builds with the G4x Storm as the minimum. I also wire a fuel pressure sensor and oil pressure sensor to the ECU in my installs. Use a decent intercooler, the better cores (ARE, PWR, Garrett, Vibrant, Plazmaman, Hypertune) work a lot better than the chinese stuff like Aeroflow. a 450x250-300 fits fairly well with custom end tanks to route the cooler pipes through next to the radiator Don't forget about the clutch and gearbox. These days I like the Uniclutch twinplate, Above 300whp you'll want to think about upgrading the 3rd and 4th gears in the box also with the SSC (Hollinger) gear set and install an LSD of your choice. If you're going to give it a hard time, you'll also want an oil cooler. I like the HKS thermostat type sandwich plates and setrab or mocal oil coolers with -10 speedflow fittings/lines (Chinese AN fittings neck down to a lot smaller internal diameter in their bends, not great for flow) You'll also want to think about brakes, Celica or Sportivo front calipers will bolt on with sportivo discs as a starting point. To have somewhere like Tunehouse do the work you'll want to budget somewhere between 20-40K
