Looks like you have'nt aligned the steering wheel correctly

[@T7R87]

May I ask about your steering alignment?

[@Wessel777]

this car probably used to drive oval or something, most oval cars have this type of steering.

[@alessandrooberti3307]

@@Wessel777 Formula student cars are not meant for ovals

[@gogororo4490]

Forget about the steering alignment, it looks like the fr wheel is permanently turning left

[@brennanmielke898]

@@Wessel777 Even if formula student cars were meant to drive on ovals, the alignment would make it want to turn left (because all ovals go counterclockwise) and so he would have to steer right to go straight, here he is steering left, I really don't know why the car is doing this

@@gogororo4490 could just be toe in and camera angle that makes it look that way

[@EVO1087R]

Did you de-restrict it for this testing? 100-120hp? With the air restrictor per rules these 600cc engines make about 60-70hp.

Looks fun might do that when I’m older

[@connorbingel7134]

The shifting seems rough. I think you could probably get some good time from making that smoother(either from driver input or make it better mechanically)

[@lagarona851]

Not bloody bad.

How can this be called a "Best Lap" when it does not even show a full complete lap around VIMC.
Watch closely around the 0:53 mark. Hard to see with the steering or vehicle placement but the contrails in the sky is a giveaway. They cheated by putting two separate laps together and calling it a lap. It was more of an optimal, definitely not a "best lap". Car maybe did not run properly or maybe the driver was very inconsistent so they had to lie about the best lap. The cock eyed steering the least of their concern if their driver or car can't even put a lap together so they would have to trick us with some cheeky video editing to publicly claim their best lap. What a fraud.
