To set things clear: Those speed limits are only for "Touristenfahrten", when the track is open for the public. Koenigsegg could have simply rented the whole track with the intent of a record. How do you think Porsche did its record lap with the 919 Evo? 5:19 min with speed limits? I don't think so..
@@rientsdijkstra4266 Again: How did Porsche (and many others btw!) do it? By renting the whole track BECAUSE of the restrictions and limitations of Touristenfahrten! You can even read about the restrictions on the Nürburgring´s website! Imagine: There's even a 60 kph limit sign at the Ex-Mühle-part of the track. And it's even visible in several racing sims. Guess what: It is there for TF, not for actual record attempts when the Track is rented for private use. My English might not be the best, ok, but is it really that hard to understand?
@@markusjuenemann It is clear that your English is not so good. You are clearly misreading my text. I totally agree (!) with you. You could have saved yourself the trouble of typing this long text. Have a good day!
"...could have simply"? Koenigsegg doesn't have deep as deep pockets as the VW group. Renting out the ring for a day or two might not have been an attractive cost proposition. That's around 60K euros per day, not including any extras like track marshals, paramedics, etc. It's easy to forget how much money that really is when we're used to casually looking at multi-million dollars hyper cars rocketing around these tracks.
They weren't banned for being too fast. They (and others) could still run the circuit but could not pass certain speed limits in certain areas. Not exactly a ban...
@@Crooked_Clown no or extremely limited spectators when any company is setting a lap record, you have just a handful of people including marshals and cameramen and thats it.
You can run it as fast as you want if you rent out the nurburgring for private runs like all manufacturers do. When you run the nurburgring publicly with everyone else, your hypercar's reckless speed puts all other slower cars in danger. Don't be cheap and stupid just rent out the track.
There are a couple of clips in your video showing an event called Vmax200, held at the Bruntingthorpe Airfield in the UK. I had the privilege of lining up next to a 1:1 (when it first appeared on the scene) for a blast down the runway. At the time i owned a c6 Rs6 that produced just shy of 800hp and 800ft/lb of torque (which i thought was pretty dam quick). Up to 45/50 mph we were neck and neck.... then it was like i put my handbrake on 😂😂. Up to that point I'd never seen speed like it. Borderline otherworldly, but a memory ill always have.
This is a very good example for the audience about how fast the Koenigseggs really are!🚀 That must have been a once in a lifetime memory indeed! btw really nice that you drove the v10 version of the rs6.💯
@scar9 it will be like a boost by gear idea. Too much power early on and it will just spin. Or the driver didn't want to wreck a 3m car which is understandable also
I think comparing the AMG One, Ferrari FXX or Pagani Zonda R to the Koenigsegg Jesko is not a fair comparison. Except for Pagani (who benefits from a Mercedes engine), both Ferrari and Mercedes Benz have Formula 1 teams that they can draw from for technology to use in their other cars. Also, Koenigsegg was able to break the world speed record without having been an very established company with a prestigious reputation.
Pagani has a Pagani engine, dude... ITs just that Mercedes special vehicle / special engine department makes it for them. At great cost. Its not like they just put in a Mercedes engine into Aston Martins and Paganis.
@@captain_context9991 No, it is an AMG / Mercedes Engine. It is based on the regular V12, just specifically build for Pagani. That's why the Engine also has the AMG Badging, since they are also proud about it. The M297 (atleast in the Zonda) is based on the M120 V12 from the W140 S-Class of the 90s, that was also used in a modificated version in the CLK GTR.
@@Voodoo_One Sure. But its not like they just use a Mercedes engine. AMG is the special performance engine manufacturer owned by Mercedes. Nobody at Aston Martin or Pagani are going to tell you its not from AMG. Like these American jokers that always deny where things come from.
When you take into account the 7:01 that the Viper ran there, that's an astounding time, considering it was a car club who flew a couple Vipers to the ring, and in a matter of a couple of days, ran times that Porsche, BMW, and Mercedes couldn't do, despite those three basically living on that track, with no factory support whatsoever.
The Viper ACR is a completely focused on track with no comfort. BMW has never build such a car, so you already have to exclude them. Also, I don’t know where Mercedes and Porsche are struggling to set such times when they both have multiple faster times. In addition, even Journalists (e.g. Christian Gebhardt) are faster in some cars of Mercedes and Porsche or close as fast than the Viper you mentioned. So no, they don’t struggle to be faster, they don’t even need pro drivers to do so.

Those cars were also NOT road legal Vipers. And the Vipers are dedicated racecars. And they completely failed to achieve their goals. Dont believe this video. Koenigsegg has never sent a team to the Ring to do any kind of record attempt. And if they did, they would sure as hell do better than old Viper did. One Koenigsegg did crash at the Ring, but that was some guy with his own car. NOT some wooorld record attempt.
Maybe because you're just waiting for another accident to happen, it costs money (the car and the circuit repairs), time, and puts the life of the driver in danger.
3 million dollars and the basic ABS system fails. They probably wont make that mistake again or was it maybe just the driver lying. Amazing company extremely humble owner.
They're now producing and engineering everything in house. They were outsourcing some components like ABS and stuff like that in the first productions. With the Gemera, Jesko, Regera etc it's everything built in house
In all seriousness, I see Koenigsegg not only smashing that record. But blowing way past it. The Koenigsegg company creator/owner named Christian quote “We don’t make cars to beat fastest car records” Yet his cars smash ANY & EVERY record there is. And if by any chance another car company makes any claim to a fast car record, for people that know by now. It’s because Koenigsegg or Rimac haven’t competed. Pls note: Rimac is a car company fast car records enthusiast know of by now.
Porsche only has to make a road legal variant of their Porsche 919 Evo Hybrid and Koenigssegg and Rimac would have no chance unless they try to build a car that corners as well. Power without control (cornering) is destined to loose on race tracks. Downforce, grip, braking and cornering speed are way more important than pure power
As much as i respect Rimac cars, tuned ICE cars still annihilate the Nevera. An AMS GTR Alpha Omega does 0-60 in 1.49 seconds (Nevera in 1.85) and quarter mile in 7.49 seconds (Nevera in 8.52). And the AMS costs 8 times less than the Nevera.
Why are we talking about mph one time then km/h the other? Koenisegg is europian Germany and the track (Nordschleife) is also. Speak metrik and talk km/h please.
It’s not 1.1 ratio as you state -narrator. ITS A 1:1 ratio. Huge difference. So if you wish to narrate in future get the speaking side of the script correct and proof read before the vid
Who's next? Porsche... Up until Mercedes AMG One their 911 GT2, Manthey racing had the production car record for some time. And it seems they've been alternating with other brands. Absolute record still belongs to Porsche (919 Hybrid Evo)
After seeing the post of the Jesko beating a record on another track and only pushing the car to 75% I have no doubt in my mind that the Jesko can beat the nürbürgring record. I think the Valkyrie amr pro and the Bolide might have a good chance too.
@@junedmomin2106 the Gotland ring, it’s posted on Koenigsegg’s YT channel. Here’s the link though. ruclips.net/video/Pf6mSlzcq3A/видео.htmlsi=Rq3u6oW9xcn1VvP_
The Jesko is Amazing,Koenigsegg is a Genius,he doesn't use a Unreliable Low Hp Mercedes engine like Pagaini,his cars are the real deal all in house. For the same price I'd take a Koenigsegg everytime.
They are good cars for the airfield, the overall usage apart from this is pretty limited. Why they never broke any records in SPA, Hockenheim, Laguna Seca?
@@CarClique2000 But who else was attempting a record on the Gotland ring? Don‘t get me wrong but it’s something different having a record on the mentioned tracks (or at least coming close) - especially Nordschleife..
Cones n Eggs has never entered any of their cars into any group test for any major publication. And Chris prohibits owners from doing so. All of their records and feats have occured in a vacuum with no other manufacturers and no independent judges.
trying to storm the loop in a car whose body produces only 100 kg of downforce, and has more than 1000 hp, just by giving it a body kit and installing a spoiler, was stupid
Its a pure myth that Koenigsegg is banned from the Nürburgring. Even the mentiones speed limits of course only apply for "Touristenfahrten", so for public driving. But if a company rent the ring, like Porsche did with their 919 Tribute, than of course they can go as fastest they want.
1:35 Basseng also crashed this car (either right after Pflanzgarten or in Bellof Esses), trying to improve the lap time. It had started raining towards the end of the lap and instead of aborting it, he wanted to finish the lap. He lost control and the car bounced from one guardrail to the other and had damage all over. It was also a pretty special car, being the first ever Koenigsegg with tinted naked carbon body. It had standard wing and CCX Edition wheels. According to EVO magazine, it had 4.7 L engine with 900 PS, but they could have gotten this wrong and it was really a 4.8 L, not sure. The owner must have been cursing ever agreeing to lend his car for this test. They've had nothing but bad luck on the track since then.
Nurburgring will likely be dominated by an all wheel drive electric. Likely, by a Tesla or a Lucid. Shifting a transmission creates torque pulses, which can cause loss of traction, and, transition losses, which negates some of the horsepower produced by the engine. A shiftless electric power train applies its power much more smoothly, allowing a higher AVERAGE horsepower to be applied, resulting in faster times. A combustion car could do it, with a very advanced all wheel drive system and a continuously variable transmission. (good luck putting ~1,600 horsepower into a push belt!)
As much as I love aerospace engineering it has got me close to cars then planes . And koenigsegg is the perfect example. All the other car makers too it's just beauty.
I don't think the German car-makers will relinquish the record without a fight, and we can't forget about Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Pagani, not to mention Bugati, if they are ever allowed to run unrestricted with a F1 driver.
The speed limits at the Nordschliefe make setting records for production cars pointless now at that track. That Nissan's under tray was flat with no way for air to flow upwards through a fenders something WEC cars have implemented in their prototype race cars to prevent lift. The people at Nordschliefe could have implemented that rule letting cars with that mod go full speed but oh well. Nordschliefe records don't matter now. Gonna have to pick another track for the standard.
Speed limit on that track is stupid considering the fact that youd have to implement that based on the worst aerodynamic car with awful weight distribution and bad center of gravity just to be effective. Then at that point, it limits the purpose of the track, which is to act as a NASCAR (true roots of NASCAR and not the donut of a race we see now). It helps create cars with interesting designs that is not only quick on a lot of road conditions but efficient at it
You are about 2-3 months late with that comment… Rimac has the production EV lap record at Nurburgring atm.. but that EV time is pretty slow (07:05) and the fastest petrol/hybrid production car is AMG ONE with 06:35!
To be honest I think the Jesko won't be able to beat the GT3 RS MR time and that's why we will never see the Jesko on the ring. A possible defeat will lower it's value immensely. Horse power and lightness are not enough - Koenigsegg lacks expertise on the track, it is a brand that competes in the Bugatti area, meaning top speed and luxury.
Those eggs were on old tyres when attempting lap times and they are not even track focused, the lap times are impressive. Also i dont want to be that guy but porsche is pronounced wrong.
I love how you included clips from forza horizon 4 and forza motorsport 7 in your video, nice touch 👌 on the subject of the nurburgring, I don't believe it matters all that much, i mean yes it's a great marketing exercise but what does it prove exactly? Car manufacturers choose factory race drivers, choose the day with the perfect weather and even take into consideration wind speed and direction for optimal downforce and even tweak the suspension and aero sometimes.. they create the perfect conditions for the perfect lap time which is something impossible to do with the same car on a touristenfahrten session. Btw great video keep up the good work.
But when everybody waits for the perfect weather and tweaks the car for the ring, they all drive within the same conditions.This makes it comparable to other cars and shows wich is the quickest. Also for touristenfahrten i think there are speed limits you have to follow
Production car world records, when the "production cars" cost > 3MEUR and production numers are onhundred or less?! Why would anyone consider that even remotely interesting?
Too fast to be allowed a shot at the record because of imposed speed limits? There's a simple solution that puts everyone on the same page. Make the present record holders rerun the Ring with the same speed limits imposed on them, and if they fail or refuse, take away their record.
Koenesegg just doesn't compare to tye real things like Ferrari or Maclauren or Bugatti. The are way over turboed small blocks that no doubt blow rings within a couple hours. That blue smoke isnt tires burning, its oil being pushéd into the combustion chamber. The kost over hyped over priced so called super car made. And im a fellow swede, they advertise speeds like 315mph without even getting close to 300. Ill take any ferrari or Mac Lauren over these swedish lies
The latest Gordan Murray car would be interesting to see on the track. Of course his goal was to make the car that is the most engaging and most fun to drive, which doesn't necessarily make it fastest on the track. It'd still be interesting to see how the most fun car compares to the most track focused car. And it's half the weight. Should do pretty well regardless.
@@captain_context9991 ironically, his Mcclaren F1 was not built to set records either yet when tested, at the request of a customer, it turned out to be the fastest car ever made at the time. And even now remains the fastest naturally aspirated car. I'm sure his later cars, also not built to set records might still surprise people. Definitely more fun in any case, and isn't that really the point?
@@donutwindy Yes. Its also worth noting that you cannot legally make that kind of cars today. Its got NONE of the modern standards for safety that are required today. And also as for the chance of T50 accidentally being the fastest car on a track. Thats not what they made it for. And there are other cars that have 2-3 times the power. But it will be great, ofcourse. But I would think it has to compete with Porsche GT3 and GT2 RS. Which is obviously extremely good.
@@captain_context9991 His new cars even with the safety features are even lighter. I don't know how, it's a miracle that other cars can learn from. But I agree, a modern track focused car with twice the power even with a lot more weight, but more downforce, should beat it. I'd still rather own a Gordan Murray. I've driven a 2000lb car, and the light and tossable quality you get cannot be replicated in a heavier car. I'm just curious as to how well it would do. We'll probably never find out. And what if you did add a supercharger? So many questions. I'll never own any of them and I'm not turning down a Porsche or Koenigsegg if one appears in my driveway, I just have a soft spot for light cars. Because you can't even find a 2000lb car anymore. Maybe an Atom, and that's fun, but that's barely a car.
@@donutwindy Well. back in the day when I was a game designer in England, I had teh chance to be on the other side of that. We had 4-5 supercars in the garage most of the time and it was fun and exciting. But they all eventually turned into houses as we got older. I also did my university degree in marketing with the intention of working for the car industry. So i have been to most supercar factories in the world during that time. Even tho I am... Hardly in the market anymore, and things have escalated wildly since... If you are looking for a 3-4 million bucks hypercar with unlimited power, you are well catered for today. Point was... I still think its cool and a hell of an achievement that they even exist at all. I think Im gonna go for the new Lotus.
For only having 3k ish subs you are great at story telling. I didn’t skip through not one time, though you are talking about my favorite hyper car brand.
Thanks a lot Jesse, really appreciate it! Check out our last video of the most hated AMG. You will like that one too, cause it's with pure v8 sounds ;)
my only experience of the Nordschleife come from Gran Turismo 4. So, I will just express some simple facts. 1) Nordschleife is the real life daily road, we talk about roads around us except highways. 2) achieve a 7;20 lap running road legal tyres on this track is an athletic exercise 3) and last, when you accept that road legal tyres are the limit on this track, you've got to admit that 11oo hp /1200 kgs are the limits for this track. More power or less weight determines a car on road legal tyres who cannot approach its limits of this track. Koenigsegg or equals banned on the Ring ? ok, right. Please, make the difference @Laguna Seca or @Infineon Raceway or others tracks ready to accept Fast cars on fast n technical tracks. Driving fast and dangerously is too easy on The Nurb for cars close to 1100hp/1200kgs.
The Nurburgring has become so obsolete with newer cars and the speeds that they can reach. Cars shouldn’t be racing on circuits that can unsettle a car so much that it becomes airborne. Even racing it in a video game, it’s ridiculously hard with its blind corners and uneven pavement.
It is not pronounced ' one one ' , it is the 'one to one' as in one horsepower to every one kilo in weight ratio , one one makes no sense , please do your research
Frist…even being a petrolhead myself - also owning a sportscar (not a hypercar), I am convinced of the fact that this hoursepower madness between manufactorers is now way too much. You can’t even use it. It is too much for normal roads. It is not fun to have a 1000 HP car, and not even being able to do 2nd or even just 1st gear flat out, before you loose your licens. Doing 350 at the Autobahn is not fun - that is crazy. The hypercars are the reason why German politicians are considering limiting the whole Autobahn to 130. Why not stick to the 250 km/h limit? Do one need 350 km/h risking to provoke the 130-limitation…??!! You can find plenty of speed and fun in the range of 0-250 also in the bends. The hoursepower competition is going out of hand - seems like to be a competition between men with small d…s. They are missing the point - it is all about the doing, not the size.
Es liegt nicht an der Lautstärke oder einer Gefahr für andere Fahrzeuge , es ist ganz einfach nur unsere deutsche Arroganz . Porsche , AMG , BMW Power und Audi verhindern seit Jahren Rekordfahrten auf dem Nürburgring durch Autos aus Schweden. Auch in Hera Lessin darf Christian mit seinen Fahrzeugen nicht starten. Sie haben allesamt schnelle und laute Fahrzeuge und fahren jeden Tag neue Rundenrekorde mit dem AMG One zB. oder dem GT3RS haben aber die Hosen voll sich einem fairen Kampf mit Christinas Technik zu stellen.
Sadly there is a little chance a company with no racing experience to beat the Green hell lap record. Those times are gone. Koenigsegg will probably be slower than the fastest 911. People in Koenigsegg know this and will never get on the ring.
My brother!, their least track focused car (Regera) obliterated a Senna and a BAC Mono, wich are dedicated track cars, by a full second in a small circuit (Ring Knutstorp). The One:1 with 70% of its full power held the record at Spa for years. Average Koenigsegg can stand in 2.0 gs of lateral grip, to compare this, a brand new 911 GT3RS, arguably one of the best track cars ever, stands at 1.4 max grip. So no! Every Koenigsegg is good at cornering. And those are older cars, let alone a Jesko Attack and god forbiden if they ever make a LM car. They could even pull off a family hypercar that beats most 2 seater cars in the apex. So you're very wrong about that.
What are you talking about? Koenigsegg one:1 broke records all around the world spa fastest production car for 3 years, still has the Suzuka circuit record for fastest production car!
Well it proves that Speed doesn't win all races. The car is fast but it becomes uncontrollable in certain parts of the course. multiple crashes has already proven that
Well a lot of mishaps throughout the years is either the drivers the egg has need to be a little better or the car is way too expensive and not to par. Those years when they had speed limits could have easily beaten the ones that did do good at that time with their respective cars. Lots of excuses imo. I'll believe it when I see it. Peace.
The jesko won’t do shit, like all their other cars, it just can’t have good handling, not if you want to go 300mph, oh and you forget the Agera R. crash when they attempted a laptime with that. Also how come koenigsegg doesn’t allow any tracktesting in competition with other cars where an individual team doest it and not themselves? Well at least since 2010 it’s been like that
Powerful and light don't necessarily mean fast on a track. Koenigsegg has 0 track experience. BTW One:1 is slower than the Pagani Huayra BC in sector 1 of Spa where it should excel because of the long straights, so I doubt Koenigsegg will be even close to AMG One/AMG GT BS/991 GT2RS's times.
Mmmm..... Not about the horsepower or the speed..... but can you put that power down on the tarmac, traction, handling, cornering, mechanical grip, downforce, durability!!! It as about that perfect balance!!! Porsche GT3 RS has that perfect balance!!!
Koenigsegg really focused on every detail with the Jesko, to make it great on downforce, grip, cornering and so on. And for the time attack they would balance it out even more. So it is definitely worth trying to attack the time of the Amg one. Manthey Racing GT3 RS is even better for the ring :)
First off it,s 1:1 or One to One, not 1.1 or One Point One. Secondly, it did not have a DCT. It has a very unique single clutch transmission. Thirdly, it's Porsche, not Porsch.
I know, it is the Ai voice over we used for this video... & I don't know a single clutch Koenigsegg tbh. Maybe you mean the one-speed fixed gear system of the regera? Cause the Jesko has a seven clutch gearbox and the one to one has a dct 7 speed😊
If you’re gonna make a video about a car you should at least know how to pronounce the damn model names. It’s the One:1 (said one to one) and Jesko (pronounced Yesko).
I want to see the T.50 take on the Nurburgring. Let's see if this "power to weight ratio" king could break the track record. It will be Gordon Murray's ultimate test.
Koenigsegg is just a drag and drive that looks very fast and unique, yet can not create a car to compete in 24 hrs of any Le Mans. Yet, Jim's SCGs have LM cars from race track to street cars... Ferrari, SCG, Porsche, Mercedes AMG, etc (car manufacturers that create LM cars to Roads cars are very worthy for any wealthy car enthusiasts. The only exception to IMHO, Pagani, is also a very worthy purchase. Koenigsegg, unfortunately, is overhyped technology with YES, unbelievable performance figures on paper, and controlled track environments. Koenigsegg needs to have data analysis in non controlled race track conditions. This is very important for the safety of very wealthy car enthusiasts. Porsche Carrera GT, very beautiful car and performance, unfortunately, requires very advanced racing driver skills, ref. Porsche Carrera GT crash and death of Paul and Rodas (rodas the driver and an experienced race car driver). Unfortunately, maintenance of the car was subpar where the tires were 9 years old. Well, beyond tire change recommendations, being 5 to 7 years. A lot earlier, if racing every day for longer periods of time. If you value your life, can't just be a race car driver and ignore the maintenance (part of the supercar / hypercar ownership costs), know the very important things, brake, tires, motor oil service maintenance interval records. To each their own.
@@kimpetersen2875 I know they try. They didn't have luck on Nuburing sadly but that's their general bad luck with crashing their cars on this track. I meant they could finally test the claimed top speed
My dad is a developer at koenigsegg (literly no cap!! I swear to god my dad works at as a dev. there) So i asked my dad if and when they are going to make another attempt and he said they'll give the jesko attack a try between 2024 and 2027.

They shouldn't be able to enforce speed limits on a racetrack if the car is capable of holding it together then they should be allowed to go as fast as possible it's just sad that because some people fd up that other people are punished sounds like America's gun Laws
3:00 that moron was told, instructed AND warned to LIFT before the jump at Flugplatz. But he chose otherwise. And he killed a man in the process. Who, by the way, was siting in a "restricted area", where spectators were not actually allowed.
I wish there was also a mention of if VW actually banned them or not from the test track they own because of them not wanting to prove they had a better top speed than Bugatti. I had heard many rumors about it but nothing concrete.
Computer voice narration is getting much better, but it's still not right. If you're going to the effort of making such a nice production, don't ruin it with a computer voice.
From what i know. They have crashed 2 cars ! When they tried to set a record. Doesnt really speak for them being too fast. Especially their past times werent that fast either. Your title is rather clickbait.
Those speed limits only apply to track days. In an actual race. There is no speed limit. U really think the LeMans cars slow down during the 24hr race. No.
To set things clear: Those speed limits are only for "Touristenfahrten", when the track is open for the public. Koenigsegg could have simply rented the whole track with the intent of a record. How do you think Porsche did its record lap with the 919 Evo? 5:19 min with speed limits? I don't think so..
Seem strange to want to set a laprecord during touristenfahrten??? Chance of an unimpeded lap seem small then anyway...

to be honest, being banned for being too fast is actually a Badge of Honor

Being banned for reckless and uncontrolled driving that resulted in crashes, and putting other drivers and spectators at risk
They weren't banned for being too fast. They (and others) could still run the circuit but could not pass certain speed limits in certain areas. Not exactly a ban...

Sure. But its not like they just use a Mercedes engine. AMG is the special performance engine manufacturer owned by Mercedes. Nobody at Aston Martin or Pagani are going to tell you its not from AMG. Like these American jokers that always deny where things come from.
When you take into account the 7:01 that the Viper ran there, that's an astounding time, considering it was a car club who flew a couple Vipers to the ring, and in a matter of a couple of days, ran times that Porsche, BMW, and Mercedes couldn't do, despite those three basically living on that track, with no factory support whatsoever.
The Viper ACR is a completely focused on track with no comfort. BMW has never build such a car, so you already have to exclude them. Also, I don’t know where Mercedes and Porsche are struggling to set such times when they both have multiple faster times. In addition, even Journalists (e.g. Christian Gebhardt) are faster in some cars of Mercedes and Porsche or close as fast than the Viper you mentioned.
So no, they don’t struggle to be faster, they don’t even need pro drivers to do so.

BMW and track in the same sentence lmao
Those cars were also NOT road legal Vipers. And the Vipers are dedicated racecars. And they completely failed to achieve their goals. Dont believe this video. Koenigsegg has never sent a team to the Ring to do any kind of record attempt. And if they did, they would sure as hell do better than old Viper did. One Koenigsegg did crash at the Ring, but that was some guy with his own car. NOT some wooorld record attempt.
@@captain_context9991 The guy that drove the one:1 was Koenigseggs test driver ffs.
damn this voiceover was AI??? I honestly couldn't even tell for most of the video
Yes it's gotten very good with only a few giveaways.
2:03 "1371 newton meters of tor-k"
😭🤣
Why didn't they just not let spectators watch from that spot anymore?
Maybe because you're just waiting for another accident to happen, it costs money (the car and the circuit repairs), time, and puts the life of the driver in danger.
The speed limit is for tourist drive, not during an industry pull. That’s a BS excuse
3 million dollars and the basic ABS system fails. They probably wont make that mistake again or was it maybe just the driver lying. Amazing company extremely humble owner.
They didn't make their own ABS system
They're now producing and engineering everything in house. They were outsourcing some components like ABS and stuff like that in the first productions. With the Gemera, Jesko, Regera etc it's everything built in house
@@peppesgabelloexcept atleast Micheline tires and Rimac batterys
It was a Bosch ABS sensor that had failed, and it was effectively the best of its kind at that point in time.
@@henrikjeansson9624 Koenigsegg also develop the batteries with rimac
In all seriousness, I see Koenigsegg not only smashing that record. But blowing way past it.
The Koenigsegg company
creator/owner named Christian quote
“We don’t make cars to beat fastest car records”
Yet his cars smash ANY & EVERY record there is.
And if by any chance another car company makes any claim to a fast car record, for people that know by now.
It’s because Koenigsegg or Rimac haven’t competed.
Pls note: Rimac is a car company fast car records enthusiast know of by now.
Porsche only has to make a road legal variant of their Porsche 919 Evo Hybrid and Koenigssegg and Rimac would have no chance unless they try to build a car that corners as well. Power without control (cornering) is destined to loose on race tracks. Downforce, grip, braking and cornering speed are way more important than pure power
As much as i respect Rimac cars, tuned ICE cars still annihilate the Nevera.
An AMS GTR Alpha Omega does 0-60 in 1.49 seconds (Nevera in 1.85) and quarter mile in 7.49 seconds (Nevera in 8.52). And the AMS costs 8 times less than the Nevera.
Why are we talking about mph one time then km/h the other? Koenisegg is europian Germany and the track (Nordschleife) is also. Speak metrik and talk km/h please.
Koenigsegg is fucking Swedish tf are u talking about it being German?
That accident from jaun is the lad who the gran turismo movie is based about. He went from a sim racer to a real race car driver
I was watching the video and remembered that immediately. I was like wait thats from the movie oh thats the guy.
Yes brl the movie
i dont think they were ever banned, just unfortunate and a bit overconfidence from drivers, its the green hell for a reason
It’s not 1.1 ratio as you state -narrator. ITS A 1:1 ratio. Huge difference. So if you wish to narrate in future get the speaking side of the script correct and proof read before the vid
Koenigsegg IS the best... They don't need to price anything. If you know, you know.
Who's next? Porsche... Up until Mercedes AMG One their 911 GT2, Manthey racing had the production car record for some time. And it seems they've been alternating with other brands. Absolute record still belongs to Porsche (919 Hybrid Evo)
919 in unreal
Speed limits do not matter if you hire the track to set a record.
You can't do a record attempt when it's open to the public.
That is indeed impossible cause you have a lot of unexperienced drivers on the tourist drives + there would be to much traffic on the circuit!
Porsche will claim it back.
Porsche already is
Fyi, my modest 2018 Porsche GT2 RS MR still holds the Ring lap record to this day
Wrong , the amg one does. Moreover, the AM Valkyrie will wipe the floor with both of them if AM send it to the NR officially
After seeing the post of the Jesko beating a record on another track and only pushing the car to 75% I have no doubt in my mind that the Jesko can beat the nürbürgring record. I think the Valkyrie amr pro and the Bolide might have a good chance too.
It was only on pump gas, too, not even e85, so there's a lot more in the car. I can't wait to see it 🎉
... and the T.50.
which track was it?
@@junedmomin2106 the Gotland ring, it’s posted on Koenigsegg’s YT channel. Here’s the link though. ruclips.net/video/Pf6mSlzcq3A/видео.htmlsi=Rq3u6oW9xcn1VvP_
Oh you mean the track where all other laps where customers on track days? Very impressive
The Jesko is Amazing,Koenigsegg is a Genius,he doesn't use a Unreliable Low Hp Mercedes engine like Pagaini,his cars are the real deal all in house.
For the same price I'd take a Koenigsegg everytime.
Unreliable AMG engine that won many races in different configurations in different cars throughout AMG history
They are good cars for the airfield, the overall usage apart from this is pretty limited. Why they never broke any records in SPA, Hockenheim, Laguna Seca?
They have a lap record on the Gotland ring🙌🏼
@@CarClique2000 But who else was attempting a record on the Gotland ring? Don‘t get me wrong but it’s something different having a record on the mentioned tracks (or at least coming close) - especially Nordschleife..
"Or should we say, the meeth of it."
No, you shouldn't say that.
yeah wtf lmao
Cones n Eggs has never entered any of their cars into any group test for any major publication. And Chris prohibits owners from doing so. All of their records and feats have occured in a vacuum with no other manufacturers and no independent judges.
Speed is one thing. Turning a corner is another! 😂
Yep, you'd have to lay down rubber cement around the corners.
Jesko Attack has 1000 kg of downforce, I think It'll handle the corners.
trying to storm the loop in a car whose body produces only 100 kg of downforce, and has more than 1000 hp, just by giving it a body kit and installing a spoiler, was stupid
Its a pure myth that Koenigsegg is banned from the Nürburgring. Even the mentiones speed limits of course only apply for "Touristenfahrten", so for public driving. But if a company rent the ring, like Porsche did with their 919 Tribute, than of course they can go as fastest they want.
NR is not limited at all anymore since many years
1:35 Basseng also crashed this car (either right after Pflanzgarten or in Bellof Esses), trying to improve the lap time. It had started raining towards the end of the lap and instead of aborting it, he wanted to finish the lap. He lost control and the car bounced from one guardrail to the other and had damage all over.
It was also a pretty special car, being the first ever Koenigsegg with tinted naked carbon body. It had standard wing and CCX Edition wheels. According to EVO magazine, it had 4.7 L engine with 900 PS, but they could have gotten this wrong and it was really a 4.8 L, not sure. The owner must have been cursing ever agreeing to lend his car for this test. They've had nothing but bad luck on the track since then.
Nurburgring will likely be dominated by an all wheel drive electric. Likely, by a Tesla or a Lucid. Shifting a transmission creates torque pulses, which can cause loss of traction, and, transition losses, which negates some of the horsepower produced by the engine. A shiftless electric power train applies its power much more smoothly, allowing a higher AVERAGE horsepower to be applied, resulting in faster times. A combustion car could do it, with a very advanced all wheel drive system and a continuously variable transmission. (good luck putting ~1,600 horsepower into a push belt!)
EV 🤣🤣
Königsegg ist aber mit dem Regera und 1600PS schneller als das schnellste E-Car der Rimac mit 2000PS . Was nun ?
Speedlimits at the Nordschleife makes any lap time null and void.
As much as I love aerospace engineering it has got me close to cars then planes .
And koenigsegg is the perfect example.
All the other car makers too it's just beauty.
I don't think the German car-makers will relinquish the record without a fight, and we can't forget about Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Pagani, not to mention Bugati, if they are ever allowed to run unrestricted with a F1 driver.
The speed limits at the Nordschliefe make setting records for production cars pointless now at that track. That Nissan's under tray was flat with no way for air to flow upwards through a fenders something WEC cars have implemented in their prototype race cars to prevent lift. The people at Nordschliefe could have implemented that rule letting cars with that mod go full speed but oh well. Nordschliefe records don't matter now. Gonna have to pick another track for the standard.
Speed limit on that track is stupid considering the fact that youd have to implement that based on the worst aerodynamic car with awful weight distribution and bad center of gravity just to be effective. Then at that point, it limits the purpose of the track, which is to act as a NASCAR (true roots of NASCAR and not the donut of a race we see now).
It helps create cars with interesting designs that is not only quick on a lot of road conditions but efficient at it
Next record will be Bugatti or Rimac
You are about 2-3 months late with that comment… Rimac has the production EV lap record at Nurburgring atm.. but that EV time is pretty slow (07:05) and the fastest petrol/hybrid production car is AMG ONE with 06:35!
@@MrGrazzhoppa Ok, but I think they will make the ultimate production lap record again with their next car.
This just tells me how amazing the 992 GT3(RS or not) even beating the 918, they did it with 'just' 500 horse power.
Really crazy right, imagine when MR is in the name🫣
To be honest I think the Jesko won't be able to beat the GT3 RS MR time and that's why we will never see the Jesko on the ring. A possible defeat will lower it's value immensely.
Horse power and lightness are not enough - Koenigsegg lacks expertise on the track, it is a brand that competes in the Bugatti area, meaning top speed and luxury.
Those eggs were on old tyres when attempting lap times and they are not even track focused, the lap times are impressive. Also i dont want to be that guy but porsche is pronounced wrong.
This voice has to be AI when I heard him pronounce it miles per whoure
Suddenly went French for that part.
I love how you included clips from forza horizon 4 and forza motorsport 7 in your video, nice touch 👌 on the subject of the nurburgring, I don't believe it matters all that much, i mean yes it's a great marketing exercise but what does it prove exactly? Car manufacturers choose factory race drivers, choose the day with the perfect weather and even take into consideration wind speed and direction for optimal downforce and even tweak the suspension and aero sometimes.. they create the perfect conditions for the perfect lap time which is something impossible to do with the same car on a touristenfahrten session. Btw great video keep up the good work.
But when everybody waits for the perfect weather and tweaks the car for the ring, they all drive within the same conditions.This makes it comparable to other cars and shows wich is the quickest. Also for touristenfahrten i think there are speed limits you have to follow
Thanks a lot & yes that is true it is more of a statement to make the buyers/lovers excited 😎
Germany has much better roads than that overmarketed circuit anyway.
Wait is this voice over ai? I noticed some weird stops at some points
Long story short: a poorly modified Nissan flipped so no one else can go fast.
Production car world records, when the "production cars" cost > 3MEUR and production numers are onhundred or less?! Why would anyone consider that even remotely interesting?
Koenigsegg couldn't even beat the time of an M3 at the Nurburgring, so it's not very fast for the track!
Remember that the Koenigsegg CCX is released in 2006 and the BMW M3/M4 (G80/82) in 2021-2022
Too fast to be allowed a shot at the record because of imposed speed limits?
There's a simple solution that puts everyone on the same page. Make the present record holders rerun the Ring with the same speed limits imposed on them, and if they fail or refuse, take away their record.
Koenesegg just doesn't compare to tye real things like Ferrari or Maclauren or Bugatti. The are way over turboed small blocks that no doubt blow rings within a couple hours. That blue smoke isnt tires burning, its oil being pushéd into the combustion chamber. The kost over hyped over priced so called super car made. And im a fellow swede, they advertise speeds like 315mph without even getting close to 300. Ill take any ferrari or Mac Lauren over these swedish lies
The latest Gordan Murray car would be interesting to see on the track. Of course his goal was to make the car that is the most engaging and most fun to drive, which doesn't necessarily make it fastest on the track. It'd still be interesting to see how the most fun car compares to the most track focused car. And it's half the weight. Should do pretty well regardless.
The Gordon Murray cars have around 600 hp. They are built to be great cars, not to set world records.
@@captain_context9991 ironically, his Mcclaren F1 was not built to set records either yet when tested, at the request of a customer, it turned out to be the fastest car ever made at the time. And even now remains the fastest naturally aspirated car. I'm sure his later cars, also not built to set records might still surprise people. Definitely more fun in any case, and isn't that really the point?
@@donutwindy
Yes. Its also worth noting that you cannot legally make that kind of cars today. Its got NONE of the modern standards for safety that are required today. And also as for the chance of T50 accidentally being the fastest car on a track. Thats not what they made it for. And there are other cars that have 2-3 times the power. But it will be great, ofcourse. But I would think it has to compete with Porsche GT3 and GT2 RS. Which is obviously extremely good.
@@captain_context9991 His new cars even with the safety features are even lighter. I don't know how, it's a miracle that other cars can learn from. But I agree, a modern track focused car with twice the power even with a lot more weight, but more downforce, should beat it. I'd still rather own a Gordan Murray. I've driven a 2000lb car, and the light and tossable quality you get cannot be replicated in a heavier car. I'm just curious as to how well it would do. We'll probably never find out. And what if you did add a supercharger? So many questions. I'll never own any of them and I'm not turning down a Porsche or Koenigsegg if one appears in my driveway, I just have a soft spot for light cars. Because you can't even find a 2000lb car anymore. Maybe an Atom, and that's fun, but that's barely a car.
@@donutwindy
Well. back in the day when I was a game designer in England, I had teh chance to be on the other side of that. We had 4-5 supercars in the garage most of the time and it was fun and exciting. But they all eventually turned into houses as we got older. I also did my university degree in marketing with the intention of working for the car industry. So i have been to most supercar factories in the world during that time. Even tho I am... Hardly in the market anymore, and things have escalated wildly since... If you are looking for a 3-4 million bucks hypercar with unlimited power, you are well catered for today. Point was... I still think its cool and a hell of an achievement that they even exist at all. I think Im gonna go for the new Lotus.
For only having 3k ish subs you are great at story telling. I didn’t skip through not one time, though you are talking about my favorite hyper car brand.
Thanks a lot Jesse, really appreciate it! Check out our last video of the most hated AMG. You will like that one too, cause it's with pure v8 sounds ;)
I love how the txt to speech says Koonigsegg
Makes it more entertaining :)
AMG. and Koenigsegg
Both!!!!❤❤
Are there still speed limits on all out runs? Like for the 919/AMG ONE?
No
There are no speed limits if a manufacturer rents the track for a lap record.
@@Nowayfrrrrrrrthere are NO speed limits now at all. Not only when rented
The speed limits were lifted completely in 2016
Sorry pal, but I just set the record in a Fiat on the ring. 5:55:55
my only experience of the Nordschleife come from Gran Turismo 4. So, I will just express some simple facts. 1) Nordschleife is the real life daily road, we talk about roads around us except highways. 2) achieve a 7;20 lap running road legal tyres on this track is an athletic exercise 3) and last, when you accept that road legal tyres are the limit on this track, you've got to admit that 11oo hp /1200 kgs are the limits for this track. More power or less weight determines a car on road legal tyres who cannot approach its limits of this track. Koenigsegg or equals banned on the Ring ? ok, right. Please, make the difference @Laguna Seca or @Infineon Raceway or others tracks ready to accept Fast cars on fast n technical tracks. Driving fast and dangerously is too easy on The Nurb for cars close to 1100hp/1200kgs.
Banned not because is dangerous. Banned is because is faster than everyone else.
The Nurburgring has become so obsolete with newer cars and the speeds that they can reach. Cars shouldn’t be racing on circuits that can unsettle a car so much that it becomes airborne. Even racing it in a video game, it’s ridiculously hard with its blind corners and uneven pavement.
Let's say that it is the ultimate test for cars😆
It is not pronounced ' one one ' , it is the 'one to one' as in one horsepower to every one kilo in weight ratio , one one makes no sense , please do your research
I know, it is the Ai voice over 🥲
@@CarClique2000 I guessed that but there should be a way of correcting any mispronunciations in the editing
Koenigsegg be like: need more speed and power
Koenigsegg be like: "I don't just want to break the speed limit, I want to shatter it into a million pieces!"
Frist…even being a petrolhead myself - also owning a sportscar (not a hypercar), I am convinced of the fact that this hoursepower madness between manufactorers is now way too much. You can’t even use it. It is too much for normal roads. It is not fun to have a 1000 HP car, and not even being able to do 2nd or even just 1st gear flat out, before you loose your licens. Doing 350 at the Autobahn is not fun - that is crazy. The hypercars are the reason why German politicians are considering limiting the whole Autobahn to 130. Why not stick to the 250 km/h limit? Do one need 350 km/h risking to provoke the 130-limitation…??!! You can find plenty of speed and fun in the range of 0-250 also in the bends. The hoursepower competition is going out of hand - seems like to be a competition between men with small d…s. They are missing the point - it is all about the doing, not the size.
Don't be ridiculous. The Porsche 919 Evo was allowed to run on Nuburgring. That monster of a car is probably faster than an F1 car.
It is a german car...😜
Es liegt nicht an der Lautstärke oder einer Gefahr für andere Fahrzeuge , es ist ganz einfach nur unsere deutsche Arroganz . Porsche , AMG , BMW Power und Audi verhindern seit Jahren Rekordfahrten auf dem Nürburgring durch Autos aus Schweden. Auch in Hera Lessin darf Christian mit seinen Fahrzeugen nicht starten. Sie haben allesamt schnelle und laute Fahrzeuge und fahren jeden Tag neue Rundenrekorde mit dem AMG One zB. oder dem GT3RS haben aber die Hosen voll sich einem fairen Kampf mit Christinas Technik zu stellen.
Jesko Attack, nuff said, It will take alot time for any other manf to come up with a street legal car that can lap like this one
Now they have to go 1:02 faster in order to beat the Valkyrie’s 5:29
If anyone can figure that out it's koenigsegg
I haven't found a single official video about that Valkyrie's 5:29 except a video game video...
Oops… What BS: all manufacturers drive their cars when they rent the course… speedlimit only exists for public driving days…
Koenigsegg got declined the last time they wanted to rent out the track. (That is what I heard)
Sadly there is a little chance a company with no racing experience to beat the Green hell lap record. Those times are gone. Koenigsegg will probably be slower than the fastest 911.
People in Koenigsegg know this and will never get on the ring.
All these videos just remind me how Impressive the Viper actually was!!
100kg downforce is peanuts - hence they started building big wings on their track cars
NIssan GTR did a 7min 8sec lap and its a V6. Truly astonishing.
Koenigseggs are not that nimble in turns. They're straight line monsters. But in winding and twisting roads they're not that good
the new jesko attack was built for cornering.
and an egg still handless better than any Bugatti.
My brother!, their least track focused car (Regera) obliterated a Senna and a BAC Mono, wich are dedicated track cars, by a full second in a small circuit (Ring Knutstorp). The One:1 with 70% of its full power held the record at Spa for years. Average Koenigsegg can stand in 2.0 gs of lateral grip, to compare this, a brand new 911 GT3RS, arguably one of the best track cars ever, stands at 1.4 max grip. So no! Every Koenigsegg is good at cornering. And those are older cars, let alone a Jesko Attack and god forbiden if they ever make a LM car. They could even pull off a family hypercar that beats most 2 seater cars in the apex. So you're very wrong about that.
What are you talking about? Koenigsegg one:1 broke records all around the world spa fastest production car for 3 years, still has the Suzuka circuit record for fastest production car!
maybe what you mean is about bugatti. for cars that have mainly carbon fiber material without hybrid system the weight is very heavy.🤔
@@gativirycat6686 He clearly doesn't know the latest stuff coming out of Koenigsegg AB.

Rent the track and you don't have limits, the GT3 RS is faster than all the limits mentioned here.
Love the consistency❤
If they did this at the Isle of Mann TT, it would kill the sport. No new records at Nürburgring since the restrictions, sadly.
wich restrictions, there are none
@@proislam-co6pg Did you not watch it? There are now many speed restrictions on the course.
You should also not leave out the bugatti Boglide or the Hennessy venom.
The bolide ain't a road car and the concept version is just BS claims
where did you say why their are banned? Why did you lying everyone? the answer is simple. Too loud exhaust for the nurbuirgring standards
Well it proves that Speed doesn't win all races. The car is fast but it becomes uncontrollable in certain parts of the course. multiple crashes has already proven that
Well a lot of mishaps throughout the years is either the drivers the egg has need to be a little better or the car is way too expensive and not to par. Those years when they had speed limits could have easily beaten the ones that did do good at that time with their respective cars. Lots of excuses imo. I'll believe it when I see it. Peace.
The jesko won’t do shit, like all their other cars, it just can’t have good handling, not if you want to go 300mph, oh and you forget the Agera R. crash when they attempted a laptime with that. Also how come koenigsegg doesn’t allow any tracktesting in competition with other cars where an individual team doest it and not themselves? Well at least since 2010 it’s been like that
If it wasn't for speed limits Koenigsegg would have the record
Imagine hennessey venom f5 driving in nurbügring with extreme speed and a lot of skills is this even possible?
Would be crazy 🚀
That pile would surely have performed fantastically… 😂
Needs downforce
Just curious is this text to speech? After hearing torque pronounced torkay I'm wondering. Impressive if it is TTS.
Yeah this is, They are good but their pronunciation is not always right
Powerful and light don't necessarily mean fast on a track. Koenigsegg has 0 track experience. BTW One:1 is slower than the Pagani Huayra BC in sector 1 of Spa where it should excel because of the long straights, so I doubt Koenigsegg will be even close to AMG One/AMG GT BS/991 GT2RS's times.
Mmmm..... Not about the horsepower or the speed..... but can you put that power down on the tarmac, traction, handling, cornering, mechanical grip, downforce, durability!!! It as about that perfect balance!!! Porsche GT3 RS has that perfect balance!!!
Koenigsegg really focused on every detail with the Jesko, to make it great on downforce, grip, cornering and so on. And for the time attack they would balance it out even more. So it is definitely worth trying to attack the time of the Amg one. Manthey Racing GT3 RS is even better for the ring :)
The jesko is lighter, uses a better suspension and got way more downforce
Watch out Mustang GTD is coming!
You can see the one:1 and jesko being tested, the raw power along with the outstanding grip is well orchestrated in my opinion.
First off it,s 1:1 or One to One, not 1.1 or One Point One.
Secondly, it did not have a DCT. It has a very unique single clutch transmission.
Thirdly, it's Porsche, not Porsch.
I know, it is the Ai voice over we used for this video... & I don't know a single clutch Koenigsegg tbh. Maybe you mean the one-speed fixed gear system of the regera? Cause the Jesko has a seven clutch gearbox and the one to one has a dct 7 speed😊
If you’re gonna make a video about a car you should at least know how to pronounce the damn model names. It’s the One:1 (said one to one) and Jesko (pronounced Yesko).
To me is to be the fastest with the minimun horsepower will be the best car. Porsche all the way. Looking forward to the mission x.
KNOW ! the fact being the track can't handle a persecution machine like the fou wheel vision of speed and buetiy :D and that how that is :D
I want to see the T.50 take on the Nurburgring. Let's see if this "power to weight ratio" king could break the track record. It will be Gordon Murray's ultimate test.
Koenigsegg is just a drag and drive that looks very fast and unique, yet can not create a car to compete in 24 hrs of any Le Mans. Yet, Jim's SCGs have LM cars from race track to street cars... Ferrari, SCG, Porsche, Mercedes AMG, etc (car manufacturers that create LM cars to Roads cars are very worthy for any wealthy car enthusiasts. The only exception to IMHO, Pagani, is also a very worthy purchase. Koenigsegg, unfortunately, is overhyped technology with YES, unbelievable performance figures on paper, and controlled track environments. Koenigsegg needs to have data analysis in non controlled race track conditions. This is very important for the safety of very wealthy car enthusiasts. Porsche Carrera GT, very beautiful car and performance, unfortunately, requires very advanced racing driver skills, ref. Porsche Carrera GT crash and death of Paul and Rodas (rodas the driver and an experienced race car driver). Unfortunately, maintenance of the car was subpar where the tires were 9 years old. Well, beyond tire change recommendations, being 5 to 7 years. A lot earlier, if racing every day for longer periods of time. If you value your life, can't just be a race car driver and ignore the maintenance (part of the supercar / hypercar ownership costs), know the very important things, brake, tires, motor oil service maintenance interval records. To each their own.
I wish Jesko performance was was tested outside simulations
Check jesko lap record on gotland
@@kimpetersen2875 I know they try. They didn't have luck on Nuburing sadly but that's their general bad luck with crashing their cars on this track. I meant they could finally test the claimed top speed

They shouldn't be able to enforce speed limits on a racetrack if the car is capable of holding it together then they should be allowed to go as fast as possible it's just sad that because some people fd up that other people are punished sounds like America's gun Laws
it's not a racetrack for tourist drives, it's public road, subject to German montoring regulations...

Aston Martin Valkyrie or GMA T50.
You can be banned from a track for numerous reasons. This is click bait.
That is the conclusion of the video, that they aren't really banned
Which Koenigsegg is on the thumbnail? Kinda looks like the Regera but not quite
A mix of a few 😆
It's a "one"
1min: 53 seconds
3:00 that moron was told, instructed AND warned to LIFT before the jump at Flugplatz.
But he chose otherwise. And he killed a man in the process. Who, by the way, was siting in a "restricted area", where spectators were not actually allowed.
I wish there was also a mention of if VW actually banned them or not from the test track they own because of them not wanting to prove they had a better top speed than Bugatti. I had heard many rumors about it but nothing concrete.
It’s not the business of VW to get other manufacturers to set a speed record. If Koenigsegg wants to do it, they have to figure it out themselves.
@@Nowayfrrrrrrr Exactly. Owning a business is about letting your competition make more money than you lmao.
Computer voice narration is getting much better, but it's still not right. If you're going to the effort of making such a nice production, don't ruin it with a computer voice.
From what i know. They have crashed 2 cars ! When they tried to set a record. Doesnt really speak for them being too fast. Especially their past times werent that fast either.
Your title is rather clickbait.
Those speed limits only apply to track days. In an actual race. There is no speed limit. U really think the LeMans cars slow down during the 24hr race. No.
Track and tourist days no speed limits as well if there are no crashes
