Ooohh...

Such a witty comeback.

One too many hockey pucks to the head, eh?

Vincent, and your opinion of anything matters why?

Where did I expressed an opinion on this thread?

This is active ignorance and it's not sarcasm if you explain that it's suppose to be sarcasm.

Also
Get your stereotypes right.
We are not canadians, we are québécois.
Astie de gros tas d'marde.

Also, I asked questions in my last post, please answer or fuck off.

If they do not give you work or bread, then take bread.

STFU Danny boy, you wouldn't know a Canadian if he bit you on the ass.

You're like the Americans I used to see at the gas station I worked at north of Toronto
with skis strapped to their roof racks heading for the "Great White North", in July...
where there is snow all the time...

In other words, a boy from floriduh, don't know shit about the north... And Quebecois
are a breed all their own, not really Canadians, not really French...

Just as an asides, when Kenny last competed in the Olympus rally, it was based in my hometown,
he never made an appearance for the fans, nor did he make an appearance during scrutineering,
I'm sure he was very busy trying to get a little pussy... But then again, most of the 15 to 17YO
females had never heard of him...

Seriously, this topic is toxic because of how some of you attack another user. Keep it on topic, let's attack Ken's ability to drive without his fancy equipment.

Question: is it even possible that a gearbox failure caused the car to lurch into the corner? I watched the video, looks like a cut inside.

I think it could. If the thing fails and goes into neutral your line is going to change.



Brap Brap.

I could see him going wide as he loses power, but to clip the inside? I don't know. He seems to be taking the low road and instead of owning it, he blames it on somebody else. I bet the gearbox guys are like "nope Ken, it wasn't us!"

Think about it this way...
The transmission dropping out of gear would be very much like lifting throttle to a 'zero load' condition in the driveline. Now, when you're in a steady state drift in a corner and you lift, you get weight transfer to the front of the car which will turn that end of the car in. (More drag on the front wheels because of more weight means front end turns in. This is fundamentally how LFB is used to adjust a line in the middle of a corner while staying on the gas.)

Now, the end effect may well be going off the outside of the corner, but the initial reaction will be the front end tucking. When you're running close to the edges... then something like what happened makes sense... at least to me.

Watching the video you do see the engine jump up to the redline just before clipping the rock...
