- Full on board GoPro footage of our 2023 internal combustion competition vehicle, Go4-23c, running in endurance with overlayed live vehicle data. Unfortunately we did not finish due to a cooling failure in our engine inlet that caused us to reach 200 degrees Celsius engine temp in 100 seconds, but we learned alot from this experience.

rip. it was nice talking to y'all at the pits, hope to see you again next year!
Looks like a tighter turning radius could help
or more grip at the front. Seems like the wheels just slide on the asphalt
200 °C water (steam) temp and the engine is still running? Maybe something caused the sensor reading to be incorrect?
Nope, all the water in our cooling system was confirmed to be gone after we checked it over, it's impressive it was still running but her engine needs a good rebuild before she can run again
The sensor is actually head temp in the metal and not water. We’re still shocked it didn’t violently explode though.
@@FloppaEnjoyer8067 That makes more sense (I think). What happened to all the water?
A hose came loose unfortunately. Prior to endurance the cooling system was vacuum tested with no leaks and all hose clamps were tight. We saw temp and pump current fluctuations in the data, so it is believed there was an air pocket, the system built up excess pressure, and eventually the line came off.
Plowing tight there
