Good look at some of the technical details on Toprak's R1. Crazy hearing how much frame stiffening they do because of his riding style.
I was hoping they'd break the record.......that thing is incredible. Remember reading an article about it awhile back when they were still early in development and they had some lofty claims about its performance. To best the ID-R is no small feat....
Man that guy's video reads like a checklist of how to get yourself killed on track. 1. Buy insanely fast car not designed for road course use 2. Modify said car by removing all safety equipment 3. Install big brake kit with DOT3 fluid 4. Fail to bed in or test big brake kit 5. Neglect all protective equipment (seat, cage, helmet, restraints, etc.) 6. Give it the onion! What could go wrong?
