MR2 Commits Snap Oversteer
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 авг 2024
- This is from a track day at Pikes Peak International Raceway last year. Had an absolute blast with the MR2, finding the limits of the car and my driving. I had to borrow my friend's drift spares which made it a lil spicy after a 4 or so laps.
For those interested - the car had a Garrett GT2860, Full exhaust, Blitz Boost controller, BC Coils, and some other fun goodies. It performed great but could've benefited from some better rotors/pads. Definitely the most fun car i've had, i'll need to get yet another at some point.

I snap oversteered on the freeway trying to avoid another driver texting and coming into my lane. The exact same thing happened and I thought that was it for me. I luckily skidded into the dirt and no damage at all to my car. That was quite an experience.
The exact same thing just happened to me although it was my fault this time. Car was fine except for a burst tyre, 1 scuffed rim and a terrible out of balance alignment.
@@capitalismnfreedom3084 Glad you're alive friend!
same shit happend to me with my aw11
@Cheezy 32 it's spooky as hell isn't it?
@@luckyboyyt8582 jup and my mr2 is still lookin pretty
Finally a video with actual snap oversteer
Same
People automatically assume any type of oversteer in an MR2 is snap oversteer
I was looking everywhere. Watched like 10 videos with "snap oversteer" in the title just to watch standard oversteer.
Explain how this was whatever "snap oversteer" is even supposed to be lmao. Not only did this not happen that fast, but also it was pretty logical with the elevation change..
@@miner4236 so snap oversteer happens after you overcorrect your car from a initial oversteer which in most cases is lift off but can almost be cause from over power or quick elevation changes. In the video right around the 29 second mark you can see the car sliding to the left, from there you can see the driver trying to counter steer the slide towards the right but the rear tyres caught traction somewhere in his attempt right after the 29 seconds ends and caused the car to whip quickly to the Right. From there the driver couldn't recover in time and span out of the track, all other videos I've seen don't replicate this scenario exactly it calls what is lift off oversteer as snap oversteer.
And this is why we keep racing to track days only
Not all of us suck ass, mate.
@@Gonken88that's what I was thinking.
The way he shifts is hilarious.
like how he drives
u dont drive😂
U mean how he "smashes" it thru?? Box ain't got no choice, it's chang'n .....
@@walterwhite6490 sure Not for stupid & Unuseful Dangerous (rookie) oversteer ... Like U bro of dis dik 😆😆 suk suk
@@walterwhite6490You're not gonna be driving very long if you shift like that.
Tries to keep up with Miata. Dies.
cause this spoiled child DONT know how to drive . only
There's only one car that can keep up with a Miata.
No not another Miata. Well, yes, but actually no. It's the Toyota Miata.
The Hachiroku. The 86.
Sadly mine blew it's motor. Typical.
@@Alpheamus Really ?? (tipical those motor fail) we CANT believe
@@Alpheamusthe mr2 is superior to the 86
@@whatbruz4202 if you say so. Line up.
ahh yes, the unintended drift
Drifting generally means power induced oversteer and of course its usually intentional. Snap oversteer is induced by too fast entry then lift off throttle at mid apex, which is your natural tendency. Hard to want to keep your foot in it when you dont think youll make the corner but thats what you gotta do.
Its a myth that MR chassis is the best handling, at least for us common drivers on public roads. Professionals on a closed course okay. What they do better is change direction quickly, AKA snap oversteer.
@@batvetteIt doesn’t matter the way a drift is induced. Using the handbrake, doing the scandi flick, or braking are all valid ways to drift.
@@gfries4906 has zero relevence to snap oversteer. Drifting is inherently intentional, snap oversteer is not and youre not drifting because lifting off the throttle initiates it.
As for your point sure there are multiple ways to start a drift but doing it with brakes of any kind just displays the stupidity of the act. Drifting doesnt get you around a racetrack any faster, its counterproductive.
@@gfries4906
It’s not really a drift until you extend it though. You can certainly drift with lift off oversteer, but if you don’t extend it with throttle you’re literally just sliding cuz you lost control. The guy in the video was clearly not using throttle at the end and was trying to regain grip, so he wasn’t drifting.
Now, if you’re driving FWD then maybe it counts as drifting if you do lift off with no throttle to extend, but again that barely counts as drifting, and in that case it’s usually intentionally done to drift, and won’t happen accidentally like the MR2 is infamous for
Title should actually be called:
“I committed snap oversteer”
Oh thank God it’s okay
its a circuit . Dude
BROWN moment, at least you only scrubbed your tires mate!
He shat his pants too.
If you only know what oversteer feels like in a lomg wheelbase FR car like a 3 series or an american muscle car, you simply cannot fathom how it feels to lose the back end in an MR2 or Elise
That 2nd to 3rd shift hurt
I think it was 4th to 3rd bro
It's just like that challenge on Gran Turismo where you have to lap the TG track in an Elise with comfort hard tyres. Mid engine, shirt wheelbase, low grip, bad times
I like that 浮遊物 ornament.
Lifting off that throttle and overcorrecting makes the snap wayyy worse
This is one of those situations that begs the statement, "There are those who have done it, and those who are going to do it!"
Literally just had this happen to me in my boxster, luckily I went into some grass. It was wet (partially why I lost traction) so no damage to the car and when I went to counter steer the car snapped back and took me right into the shoulder.
Same thing happened to me at 138mph on the motorway in the U.K…… was a write off ….. I walked away unscathed 😅
It happens to the best of us...
Big flames
Been there, done that.
Love that car
How do you stop that from happening man? - fellow mr2 owner
Haha most people would be surprise but the real way is that you don’t! The car will correct it’s self, here you can see the driver trying to hard to save it but then losing control because of that!
When you lift off the gas or brake into a corner it takes weight off the rear wheels and you become very scared very quickly. You just have to face your fears and commit to whatever speed you enter the corner with and keep on the throttle
@@bugnug5332 gotcha. That makes sense.
@@bugnug5332 upsetting the momentum/balance of the car
Mash the gas pedal or keep steady with where you’re already at with it pressed. Moment you let up an ounce you’re opening a can of worms. Watch some videos of guys drifting stock MR2’s and it’ll give you an idea what kind of finesse it takes to get yourself out of a pickle
Driver error.
Can hear him ease off the throttle right before the rear goes light and comes round on him.
Also, what the f are them gear shifts
only a common spoiled child .
Trans Needs synchros. Rarely do any of the previous owners do manual transmission maintenance and when they do they use the wrong stuff and take the synchros out even faster.
have you all seen the moment when he was on the steering lock and he almost started returning to center? well that was the correcto moment to return to center, because the angle of the car was already stabilizing, but he went into the steering lock again adding countersteer because he wanted to straighten the car faster (avoiding off track too much), if you ask me what would I've done in that situation is probably sh*tting my pants and do everything you can possibly do wrong
Snap oversteer is just driver error. Didn't begin to correct the slide soon enough here
wasn't "snap" oversteer, just good old fashioned regular oversteer that wasnt caught in time
Can someone explain to me what did he actually do wrong to get this snap oversteer? Could it be he lifted the foot from the gas right when entering the corner?
Yea happened to me on the local touge in my 370z, just too much steering input
Oh I never should’ve sold my 370z but my back was killing me. I auto-x the Z from 09-16 and won my region a few times 😊
I got a mr2 as a track car . Worst handling ever .when near the limit All it ever wants to do is point backwards . Makes it interesting .
Finally - ACTUAL snap-oversteer. I did this on day2 of ownership. It was 100% my fault. Now that I’ve owned the car for decades I dance on that line like a matador! 😂
The MK3 is so much better handling wise. It’s crazy how much better it is than the previous generation
Try to keep your hands in the 9 and 3 o’clock positions as often as possible. Moving your hands to different positions on the steering wheel makes it harder for your brain to understand how much steering is actually being applied and when the car is starting to slide. You should only change the position of your hands if you need to apply more than 180 degrees of steering in either direction. During track driving that should only happen at an extremely severe hairpin or when the car has a huge oversteer moment.
random question would this happen if the the sw20 was an automatic
1 sec More for every turn . AUTOMATIC only 4 STUPIDS .
if this was the moment he realized…
i got aware at the destabelizing lift at the entry and felt it at the apex just from watching.
So he needs to be breaking earlier and getting back on the throttle through the turn yes? Relatively new to this so I’m just trying to understand how this can be avoided.
@@griffins750 actually this is what he did. lifted before the apex and then immediatly gone back to throttle before the apex. in general i‘d say with a rwd you can brake later, roll through the apex and full throttle after the apex.
@@deadmoldable huh I get what your saying about what he did there, but wouldn't late breaking still shift the car's weight to the front upsetting the balance of the car? I'm sorry I'm being super dense rn I'm just trying to understand. In my head I'm imagining breaking much earlier then getting back on the throttle just after turn in but before the apex, keeping the weight on the back of the car.
Same thing happened to me in my cobalt on the freeway lol i saved my a$$ tho... fr.
The snap only happened due to bad input. HUGE over correction, sometimes less is more
Ooh the syncs loved that first shift. And if this is snap I'm Gustavo el Fuckarassio Matador, that was poor reaction time if anything. Totally savable.
Beginner. But we must all learn at some point
gotta blend the gas a little bit better or trail break your corners broski , Glad you and your car are safe . keep it up
Okay so I’m forza I do this thing…
Awesome whip. My uncle had one just like it for the longest time🤘🏻
浮遊物😂
That s not snap oversteer, simply oversteer.
What cause it to do that
He let off throttle in the turn. That shifts the weight forward and most of the weight is in the back so it raises the rear and throws itself with the momentum of the turn. You have to brake before or after the turn but until you’ve fully completed the turn you have to be progressively throttle thru the turn and rocket out of the end of the turn. It’s a momentum car you have to drive it differently than a regular car
An open rear differential.
he has Only $$ (..)
A good racing driver would’ve corrected it before it lost traction, but that’s really hard to do, that’s why only racing driver knows how to do it without thinking
OR , with a Minimum esxperience .. dudeS .
@@gajiraanorimaki yh ik thats why i said that in my comment'
I feel something of porsche with you litle toyota
NO NO : porchellum is very bedda . "good" Only for old pimps .
keep the shoe down let the back slide
Mr2’s have trash transmissions. Every one I know that had one including mayself had grinding gears. Even on the mr2 Option video they had grinding issues 😅
You must have had a bad car because my MK3 transmission is the best I’ve ever used
Never lift!!
Typical behavior from an open differential.
Thats how i crashed it going 160😎💪
Mid engine problems
dont speak bout what u DONT know
Thats your fault for not correcting enough early enough
Average MR2
chasing a Miata will do that to you 😉
dont illuded u
Man that was you, not the MR2. Anyway mine (2000) looks goofy but eats that corner easy
ABS SURE 4 that .
Yeah, when you drive like a weeb cringelord kung fu fighting your shifter and jerking the wheel everywhere, sure, this will happen.
The mr2 cannot keep up with a miata as you could see he had to break before turn and miata didn't have to
braking is what caused the oversteer. braking through the corner causes the rear to lift and lose traction. if he goes into the corner at the right speed and commits itll be fine
yup, miata was on Hoosier racing slicks lol
@@BankruptMedia slicks?? Damn bro.
if its an mr2 turbo they should be ashamed they cant keep up.
@@ericwoodall5973he didn’t break at it its bcuz he let off the throttle
how u did that shid dude (very bad pilot or tyres and settings at first time driving a central eng car)
too much fucking around with gears mid corner. you need a low gear and traction for cornering a midship.
