Spec e46 Race Utah July 28th 2024
Taken from car 426 (me) starting from pole. Finished second. Fastest lap of the race.
Couldn't get past him. Eventually I made a couple of mistakes and lost more time in traffic. Finished 5 seconds back.

WERC Thunderhill November 2021

My good friend Brian Lock and I won a 5 hour endurance race together on November 13th at Thunderhill Raceway near Willows California. Our first big success as racing partners. We defeated several factory race cars from porsche, mercedez, audi, etc. to win first in our class and second overall. Our car is a Nissan 370Z designed and built by Brian. We were beat only by a bespoke "prototype" race ...

This was at the Nasa "Pro Racing" event on Saturday March 27th 2021 at Sonoma Raceway in Northern California. This is the second race of the day for "Group A" which consisted of 14 "Spec e46" cars and 50-some-odd "Spec Miatas". The BMWs (e46) are are much larger and faster than Miatas so it made for some wild racing. The video is shot from on-board car #416 which is my Spec e46 (a 2002 BMW 330C...

Sunday on Fire
Просмотров 246 лет назад
We blew a part in the oil system. Made a lot of smoke and some flames and ended the race for us on Sunday. Wish I had the presence of mind to shut her down right away. It took until about 1:36 when the track crew guy did it for me. Thanks track crew. Sorry Matt. From the moment the smoke first appeared (0:13) until shut down (1:37) we have 94 seconds. Hopefully the bearings, etc. are still ok.
My "Oh shit!" moment at Sonoma last weekend (March 2018)

They dropped the yellow at the start finish so I got on it. Not sure what I was looking at but was very surprised to find the Flying Scottsmen braking for a yellow in turn one. Had enough sense to let off the brake so I could turn and miss the white bmw.

My battle with Justin in the white '83 Celica with Lexus V8 power. Watch for him to appear coming around the left hander at the beginning of the video. It's an all white Celica with the lift gate and tail lights all stripped out. We battle it out for several laps. First he's in the lead, then I pass him, then he retakes the lead. Finally I get past again and leave him behind as he gets caught i...

Fun to watch, you were making up so much time in the black rock breaking zone.
I should rename this "My Comanche is Faster than your Mooney."
About the same mpg as my pickup at 65mph. Id take it.
Best title ever!
I found you directly fly at 180. I expected you would circle around to 360 and fly to above the lake and climb. Good plane performance
Nice 👍
Nice but The 260B Could go just as fast and carry 6 people. Not 6 people very far mind you but it could.
Beautiful
Flew one pilot service around 1979. I think they had me fly it cause I was the only guy who could get it started when hot....
What a sound!!! Wow...we cannot thank you enough for this video!
nice journey
Clean machine!
This thing has an 11.8L engine. Flat-8. What a beast.
IO-720 bad ass
Nice panel! Love this plane.
My Mooney will beat you on less gas ;)
Ya I've heard that before. But that's only true in rarified air. And also. How much weight can you carry and how much stuff can you fit? Furthermore. I'll destroy you in the climb.
@@boobtubeboob Can barely fit myself! :)
Wow so fast! Comanche 400s are so rare
My dad just sold his comanche 400 that he had for 15 years. Lots of great memories. Might have to track it down in the future and by it back. Hard to beat the performance.
Your dad stated you asked him to sell it to buy a tail dragger.
@@P_double_H Yes I know he said that. That wasn't actually the case. I had asked him to keep it but he said he wanted to sell it. So I suggested if he was to sell it that he should go ahead and get a taildragger to replace it.
Good thing he has a radar detector on the dash with such speeds!
Where are these balls you're hauling? Are they in the back? Are they in an undercarriage compartment?
atop the driver's seat.
Nice plane.
Hi Gary, have I read that correctly 18 USG/Hr? 0:24 Edit - saw the electronic Fuel Flow meter at 17USG/Hr - thought she was a thristy bird until I realised she's an 8 cylinder! Nice! 😎
ya that’s like 60% power or something. 75% is 20 gph or more. takeoff climb from sea level is really bonkers. like you can hit 40 gph at full rich wide open throttle near sea level.
@@boobtubeboob Doesn't sound bad? The Cherokee Six I used to fly would cruise at 15gph and could suck just over 20gph full rich on take off and climb out! And it only cruised at around 130Kn! Give me that plane anytime, but with 8 cylinders do you find the maintenance is a bit heavy?
I only clicked on this because it said hauling balls
Same 😂👌
Amazing job by both of you! Can't wait to come and watch it live!!!
Based on 13k ft, 32 deg F and 148kias, it looks like 185kts true. Nice. That is also thanks to that beautiful long wing for high altitude performance.
gotta love that 170 mph *indicated* baby.
How often does ATC mistakenly call you Twin Comanche? The 400's groundspeed is impressive.
I flew my dad's PA24-250, and it was a rocket at 250 HP. I did my first cross-country in the Comanche and contrary to my hesitancy at first, it went all too fast. Amazing 4-seater. The only problem I had was the roughness of the brakes upon landing...seemed like the instruments would pop out of the panel any second, but never did. Earlier this year I did a search on his plane number and the plane crashed in one of the Great Lakes 6 months after Dad sold it.
It's always the last lap of the last session of the day.
The sound of the IO720 - not to mention what it's in - fantastic!
18” of manifold pressure, my God that’s idling. That is one fast single engine piston aircraft. Nice bird. Thanks for showing the panel. Cheers from Akron, Ohio
Even low RPM has a high fuel burn having 8 cylinders though 😅
@@NITEHAWK3 The video shows the panel with airspeed and shadin fuel flow. Fuel burn per distance is not too bad. True adjusted airspeed looks like 210.
18 inches is all you’re going to get at that altitude in a normally aspirated engine.
@@el-blake-o4766 naturally****** there's nothing abnormal about forced induction, thank you very much!
there is an stc for twin ray jay turbos. but it’s rather expensive.
"hauling balls" hahah
Very nice video clip!! I,m from the old school so the 400 Comanche is a Beauty !! 8 cylinders under the Cawling Tops everything !!
Hell, I can do this in my Chieftain, and on only 40 gallons per hour LOL
What year and number 400 is this? My old man has the number 97 (I'm located in in Australia). Looks like a very tidy aircraft.
I get that in my Mooney @ 8.5 gal an hr.

LOL can you fit a full size adult in that tuna can?
That ground speed was pretty impressive considering the low indicated airspeed.
quinnjim 210 mph (182 knots) true airspeed
I misread your altimeter. I thought you were at 3,000' indicating 150 knots. You were at 13,000'. BIG difference.
Wonderful bird, Gary. That panel is immaculate. And that engine sound...oh my.
214 knots GS :D
Those 400's haul ass with their 400 ponies under the cowling
That was me you almost creamed. Scared the living bejesus out of me...
Guy Argo sorry bud. i don’t know what i was looking at. i was chasing that big pink thing. maybe my eyes were on it.
What the hell are you driving? LOL
goddamn my one handed driving. I blame my piloting.
pretty good battle with hella shitty. finally i put him behind me then the flag. :-(
Beautiful!
Balsy. Dude... Balsy...Now show him chasing that Bloody Road Runner
Awesome Charlie! We're watching your ride from our hotel room in India.
