This is completely different to driving a 300hp NSX on a flat circuit. The touge is extremely bumpy, the cars constantly off balance, not really a circuit for a high powered mid engined Ferrari. Tsuchiya knows what he's doing, not many people can take a F430 to it's limit like Tsuchiya on a narrow mountain road like this.
depends, if was scuderia f430 with adjustable shocks and stuffs? or else 360 challenge stradale ? sometimes you can help on that bump parts with some adjust on these kind of cars but fear about you do a mistake and hit a car like that must be big
@@Oh2x some day, you will grow a pair of balls, big enough to appreciate Keiichi's driving. I suspect the only thing you could do better than him, is crashing at the first corner.
His name is Keiichi Tsuchiya, a pioneer of drifting and was at a such a high level of racing technique that he beat other professional racers using a lower class car. He's the fisherman in Tokyo drift.
JKU lab million dollar hands and reflexes for a very expensive and fast car. They don't call him the drift king for nothing. Can you imagine how bad that would have turned out for anyone else that didn't have that level of control?
fordfocusseferrari that's why people crash in these, they try to drift or drive like a racing driver, but they think all they do is slamming on the throttle
first time Ive seen the complete course, I think its as awesome as the nurburgring in terms of the layout, both are the kind of track the world needs more of.
@2:17 on right hand corner, the car starts to revers the rear end, usually an amature driver would panic and closes the throttle and results in spining but Tsutiya, thanks to his professional skill, kept on giving necessary thrust while adjusting the steering to counter the moment to go around he balanced the car perfectly. Good driving.
Tsuchiya is a legend in race car driving, he usually ware pink marigold dish washing gloves.. resepct to him throwing that prancing pony around with no driver aids engaged.. quality..
Thanks for this! Not everyday you get to see a F430 get absolutely trashed about, in the Touge! Also, this man, this man just have to try drifting every car he gets. haha, mad levels of car control.
@raclimja16 he's not driving it badly. he isn't used to the car. It's very hard to put the power down on a + 200hp RWD car on a tarmac rally stage! Try watching some Group B RWD car's on tarmac... The driver's were very tired on each stage. Driving 4WD is a diferent story, by the way Loeb has 8 WRC titles :D
Rik1pk Plus, the touge is bumpy and has lots of dangerous corners so Tsuchiya being the legend himself pushes a car designed for circuit racing to the limit on a touge
Hi guys, Tsuchiya won several races in Formula 3 as well in 90's.There were quite tough competitions in Japanese F3 at that time because so many good dirvers were there from EU, following Schumacher Bros. for more details, pls google his career by youe self.
The ignorant comments for this video are amazing, and shows how little some of you know about driving and cars in general. There is a lot of hype surrounding Tsuchiya and the whole 'drift king' title, but when you get down to it he is an amazing driver and is one of the world's best.
The thing he's pushing on is called a "deadrest". .....No clutch pedal but there IS a clutch that is activated electronically instead of hydrolically. This current "entry level" ferrari is available in 6 speed manual but not as popular as the paddle. As for left foot braking, this car is fast enough that most find that the single-point seatbelt (non race belt) will keep you looking for seating position stability. That's where the deadrest comes in handy.
Uuuuum nope egnine has to do with pretty much every detail of the engine and mostly from the materials the engine has been made and plus this ferrari is a v8 so no it has not 10cyl's
I think the point should be made that him not using both feet does not question is ability in a racing car. In Australia, one of the only ppl who would use both feet in a situation like this is Greg Murphy becasue he uses his left foot to break so that he can always control the accelerator pedal. Most other drivers in the field don't, hence would have their 'clutch foot' placed firmly in its resting position.....
Porsche GT2 drivers do it all the time in the ALMS. There's a video clip floating around on the net of a race at Sebring where it shows the footwork of one of the drivers; it shows him performing heel-toe downshifting as well as showing him stabbing the brake with his left foot to stabilize the car on the straight. You should watch it, it's pretty informational.
Amazing driver. Amazing video. Thanks to the poster for not ruining this with some crappy rap/metal music. The music from the engine is beautiful all by itself.
It has a selector switch between auto and manual. "Auto" works like a traditional automatic car, "Manual" you use the paddles to shift. I drove one of these around Thruxton last monday and its a great car.
that one looked almost planned and really controlled. 3:30 was the one where he was going to fast for the turn and pretty much had to floor it during the drift so that he doesn't fly off the right side.
I like his sound effects "Eeeeeeeee.....eeeeeeee" :-) I am surprised he doesn't use left foot for braking. In some corners he could hold a very light brake bias on entry as he starts to power out and get a small slight advantage.
i think he did a pretty reasonable job on a difficult circuit. He pushed it hard and corrected the kick out of the back end around the corners (although perhaps he allowed a little too much slide). BUT FOR GODS SAKE ITS OBVIOUS HE USES THE PADDLE SHIFT, FERRARI DONT MAKE THESE CARS IN AUTO.
That's Keiichi Tsuchiya, the drift king; the legend of the touge as he claims to be. but i think he has proven his point here. Throw him any car in the touge and he'll try his best to release its potential if not to the max. he's so damn proud also to claim that he's got all his skill by training with an AE86 when he was still young. Guess that's what an old car can do for you by the time you drive a more advanced car later. Nice!
german auto makers are the founders of the automotive and aricraft technologies, they strive in technology advancement from the 1st combustion chamber to electric circuit board.Dual clutch (direct shift) is a vw patent technology, evox transmission is made by getrag which is a german gear company that supply bmws, 911s, corvette, toyota... ect. If you look at formula 1, where almost all auto/space technology is developed from, every country has many innovative technology coming up every year.
left foot is for clutch remember? even in most auto-trans' vehicles, intructors advice that you use only your right foot for accel' and braking..keep it tuck in!
When the ferrari's back end went out mid turn at ~2:15+ I nearly crapped myself thinking shit he's going to ruin a crazy expensive sports car, he's going to spin off course. Instead, he floors it and perfectly counter steers to stop the spin and save the car and just keeps going. I've got a long way to go lol.
Well, left foot braking is to make it so that you can quickly toggle the throttle and brake really quickly. It is to quickly balance the car in a fast slalom.
You shouldn't left-foot brake unless you were raised to brake with your left foot from a young age, like go-kart drivers. That was the advice given to me by a fellow racer after telling him I experimented with left foot braking at Lime Rock Park at the final corner before the main straight. The weight shifting wasn't as smooth as when I used my right foot and when I applied the power, I started spinning. Left foot braking removes you from your comfort zone, unless you've done it for 20+ years.
I do support left foot braking on the straightaway in a high horse power car, while you have the power on, in order to stabilize the car. e.g. You're pushing 700 whp to the rear wheels without traction control. As you come off the corner exit onto the straight, you floor the throttle and try to put all your ponies to the ground. However, bumps on the racetrack start to destabilize your car. Using your left foot to apply the brake while your right foot is on the gas to stabilize the car is ok.
I understand how a torque converter and an automated gearbox works... I am calling BOTH autos... With a manual, you can be gentle and rev match when you shift. The auto gearbox uses computers to blip and cut the throttle for you. The reason I say manual gear box lasts longer is because of the fact that you can double downshift to manually match the speed EVERY LITTLE piece.
Thats KEISUKE TSUCHIYA to u folk RESPECT, is a proffestional JGTC driver for nissan and also the co founder of the D1 Grand Prix, you'll never be good as him god know I never will.
just because you guys have paddle shifters doesnt mean you dont have a clutch... it will either be an manual shifting-automatic transmission (tip-tronic and such) or an automated shift-manual transmission (DSG, sequential gearboxes)
so many ignorant comments. i don't know if you've ever raced on a small tight course like that, but he was braking hard because he needed to. the comment below talks about fiorano circuit..that's HUGE compared to this one lane road. if he wasn't on the brakes the way he was he would have understeered into the bushes. the driver is one of the best in the world. do some research before posting.
Guys, at least read the magazines. The F430 transmission has an automated clutch. I own a std F430 and have driven an F1 on track. There are 2 reasons F1 better for lap times. 1 - flat spot in power curve is 150 ms VS 500ms with a manual. 2 - driver can focus on important things like trail-braking, turn-in, not killing car with missed shift, etc. BTW: there's an "Auto" button that has the ECU do the shifting, but Tsuchiya used paddles - AND blipped the throttle to assist downshifts.
keep in mind this is not a conventional track with conventional, smooth, bumpless surface in this particular case, you're mixing up twichtiness with quick steering and foot work
Please remember this is a real fast STREET CAR not a race car. The compromises needed to make it acceptable as a street car are going to limit it in this setting. He's scared because the car is outrunning it's suspension components (and most likely it's frame as well).
i dont think hes driving sloppy, it probably looks that way remember this aint a track and there are bumps and the course is insanely tight, and tsuchiya is driving pretty damn quick
left foot braking makes sense in turbo-charged car's. So you can stay on the gas, and keep the turbo-pressure alive while braking. No turbo, no leftfoot braking. Thats it!
@NO4Q2 nope it is kind like a footrest i think a lot of cars have that to put your left foot somewhere and he is pushing his left foot down there because he is going to fast its like crashing before you crash your muscles extract dont now how to say it in english but you can see it when he slide alot he put his left foot down also maybe for bodybalance in the car
couldn't agree more with ya...they all say why he didn't use his left foot blah blah blah...like they're faster than him because they can use both of their legs...each driver has a certain style and sometimes their style comes in contrast with some driving rules...but when you're up to the level of Keichi, that doesn't really matter...
Its obvious you could see he was pushing that car as much as he could handle ... at those speeds with stability off on a course like that? ... hats off to him, ill never do that unless an ambulance is keeping up with me.
@flamerzbangout sounds like your car is fine, develop a good heel toe to keep the revs up on downshifting and dont be scared, your car should be faster than most in the corners, its up to you to live up to your cars potential, learn to get your angle on breaking since its an awd you can just floor it on the exit if you do it right, maybe get the misfiring system like Sudo Kyoichi in Initial D, they really use it in WRC
I understand that, I still think it's a slight downside. And I've only ever encountered a handful of corners where that'd be a problem. But I can see the benefit more for everyday driving like parking lots.

That is some serious driving. Pushing a Ferrari on a tight narrow track like that requires skill and he’s got plenty of it.

Wow that's some serious skill, not only did he slap this around the track but he slayed that track like he was out to kill it...
He’s always throwing cars around it I’m sure he could lap it in his sleep. He is to the touge what Sabine Schmitz was to the Nurburgring.
Tsuchiya is such a good driver. He has to be one of the best drivers ever. Very gutsy drive.
the ferrari was so smooth that the camera barely shakes, you can't even tell the bumps on gunsai. it almost felt like DK was driving a simulator.
nice steering and throttle work @ 2:17... car went into an oversteer and he corrected it very nicely. that's why hes called the Drift King.
2:17 - some sick shit. see when he power slides that whole corner. that aint a joke in a ferrari.
he is an amazing driver.....
he was driving so fast in a so narrow road.....i could never do it

a lot of power, strong brakes, high rev, short ratios.. this car is very well balanced..
You know you´re going fast, when you´re pressing down your left foot as hard as your right foot; just to stay up.

not "even", Clarkson is not even comparable to Tsuchiya lol

Lol why does it sound like a 4age?
shanghai cause Ferraris have small engines for theirs amount of cylinders 10 cylinder is 4.o
Uuuuum nope egnine has to do with pretty much every detail of the engine and mostly from the materials the engine has been made and plus this ferrari is a v8 so no it has not 10cyl's
MrProkiller98 It sounds that way because of it's equal length exhaust and because it is a flat plane crank v8.
Joseph HD uuum i know why its sound like this no need to explain it to me but that dude above me plus also are the things i saod above
Coz Ferrari is copying the all time masterpiece 4age.
Gunsai Touge is such an awesome looking course...just like a winding country road with out the worry of on coming traffic.
