and this is exactly the stress free, stupid content we're here for, history paired with VROOOM and jamble driving about making bad jokes
It's perfect
Finally, more gooder content
@@montruo000000007 It's weller content, I think.
less VROOOOM and more SWOOOOO
15:48 "It's like a big turbo"
My brother, it is literally a turbine
Make the turbo so big that you don't need the rest of the engine anymore

Thank you for featuring our mod Jimmy ! It's always fun to see how peoples react to driving this car :)
There is a physics update coming in a few weeks, for the Renault (and also for the Nardi Bisiluro).
We reworked the rear suspensions and tyres data. It will be easier to throw it in the turns and will suffer less from terminal understeer.
This video cetainly made me seek the mod out. Really enjoyed the Bisiluro, can't wait to try this one out!
The Bisiluro is fun, though I noticed the steering on it is slightly off center. If I center my steering wheel, it leans slightly to the left.
@@Caddynars It is ? Will recheck that for the update. Thx for the report.
A classic Jimmy Broadbent video, lapping the nordschleife, love it
A classic Jimmy Broadbent video; THICCCC brit pounds vacuum cleaner in germany
And crashing at Tiergarten, very classic indeed
ah yes, the era of "what do you mean a cushion on the gastank isnt a seat?"
"I'm sitting on it, aren't I?"
I do have a wired fascination for that era.
In the 1970s someone took a gas-turbine-powered car to La Man's 24-hour race - when they had a race of champions/historic race someone raced it again - one big issue they found was it was a sitting duck when the yellow flags came out and then went to green - it took them half a lap or even more to get up to speed again
I think McLaren also dabbled with a turbine powered indycar
Rover-BRM. It still exists today
The Shed cries as its master has done another hot lap at the Nordshcleife without it.
Fun fact: my Great Great Uncle Ozzie was one of the people to retrieve Babs from Pendine Sands years later after it had been buried. My nan told me this and i don't think she quite realised the significance of that car/land speed record/Parry Thomas
This is the Etoile Filante !
(pronounciation guide : hay-twahl fee-lante)
First time I see it in any simulation, always loved this car. By the way, the gas turbine in it (Turbomeca Turmo) was also used in the Puma helicopter, then in the TGV001 train prototype (before the TGV went electric), as well as several turbotrains that went into service.
How the hell did they boost this engine from 270hp in the little Renault to 1500hp in the Puma and Frelon.
@@kilianortmann9979 the one in the Etoile Filante was the first version (Turmo I) with very early technology, it was then improved with a twin-stage and higher pressure ratio for the Turmo II (560kw) in the 60s, and the Puma has two Turmo IIIs at 1150kw each.
It was then adapted for turbotrains.
If it's a turbo-shaft wouldn't it still need normal gearing and clutch?
@@malinmac1 I don't know the specifics of the transmission for this car, if anyone has info that would be nice !
Wikipedia says one of the designers of this car died in the 90s. The other one unknown, but assuming he’s no longer with us. Really cool to see their work live on in a way they’d never have imagined.
Man, we've come a long way from the yellow-ball-behind-the-brake-pedal days.
How to Drive Turbine Cars:
1) Shift into first gear
2) Place brick of lead on throttle
3) Pray to God the brakes don't fail if you need them.
So I actually know the guy in the "no steering wheel" bit at the beginning. His name is Jeff Diehl and he's a nitro funny car driver. Really chill dude and mainly only does west coast NHRA races with a few mid-west events if he can.
Insane how he was able to keep the car controlled in that clip.
John moza references always make me laugh
Jimmy!!! You should see how fast Hunt's title winning McLaren laps the Nords. Or maybe how fast Lauda's car laps the old nordschliefe. Or maybe that six wheeled Tyrell.
Speaking about turbines, you should definitely try the Howmet TX, the first Turbine powered CanAm car, that was a true monster. Unfortunately, due to very costing development and reliability issues, the project got buried, but I guarantee it's worth a try.
1) 200mph in a 70 year old Renault? That's brave.
2) Imagine Monza T1 with 20 of these.
Nurburgring reverse lap challenge with the car of your choice.. GO!

Miss this content Jimmer! Love seeing you enjoying your passion!
Keep up the amazing work Jimmy! Been watching from the shed and very happy to see you racing GT cars.
Old skool cars really are a proper masterpiece, including those who were brave (or dumb depending on how you want to view it) enough to drive them
Jimmer I just wanted to say your the only channel that makes me laugh and be happy. ROAD TO 1 MILLION!
Should try putting some modern tires under that turbine goblin, see what she can really do then.
Scarf and Goggles is a criminally underappreciated youtube channel that uploads some really cool documentaries on all the insane stories in land and water speed records. Definitely worth checking out if you're into that stuff.
Someone else who finally gets that channel ❤
i've always loved Trubine powered cars!!! Hopefully we will see a lap of the Chrysler Turbine car once it comes out! (Historic Sim Studios is working on it :) )
This thing is WILD and this kind of video is exactly why I subbed to you! More nords laps in cars you find cool and interesting please (and irl stuff obviously)
I just tried that in the rain at Monza yesterday :D. It's an experience.
Vintage AC which is a quite well sized racing league actually did a race with those machines on the old 1966 spa which was very weird but extremely fun.
Big shoutout to editor! 🙌 Stellar work
when you said making my way the first word I thought of after was Downtown and now that song is stuck in my head, thanks Jimmer lol
That Stroll diss
Love my Moza R9 setup!!!
Imagine these on a NASCAR track, that would probably be entertaining
Fantastic video as always jimmy!
I knew as soon as he passed the bridge on the second lap and kept it pegged that he was going to rocket into the wall. Back when I played Project Cars 2 and drove the turbine indy car, you had to pretty much go on the brakes right around the crest and the bridge, and it could still be uncomfortably close.
Jimmy Broadbent: The man with the answer to a question nobody asked. (and we love him for it)
I kind of love the craziness of '50s and '60s turbine racers. Just the optimism of the jet age. Only motorsport these things stuck in was boat racing.
And of course maybe plane racing.
But it makes sense why they only stuck in boat and plane racing. Need to stay at high rpm for power.
@@callummclachlan4771 they don't really race turboprops in air racing that I know of, other than in the Sport class and point-to-point races. Most of the race planes you think of - pylon racers and the Red Bull aerobatic time trial thingy I don't know whether or not they do anymore - use piston engines, while there IS a pure jet (no propeller) class in what was once the Reno Air Races. But, yes, you can throw either a plane or (at least) a Hydroplane-type race boat into a corner at full - or at least constant - power and never lift, given the way the courses and vehicles are designed.
There was the Lotus 56, a turbine powered race car, so if there's a mod for that, well could see how that goes. Granted given its from the 60s not sure how different it would be. Also I have how the car on cornering is like "Hit the apex? But the apex never did anything to me".
One of my favourite mods, only a matter of time before jimmy tried it.
There were way more turbine-powered race cars than one might expect, like the Lotus 56, STP-Paxton Turbocar, and one that Shelby made which never raced.
Hahaha the Lance Stroll shade! :D
Really like how the design of this flat bullet predates the design of Prototype racecars we have today.
This video made me realize I would happily watch a boring documentary with Jimmy's voice-over. The world is missing a talent.
Love this type of content
Seeing quirky cars like this raced around the ring makes me wonder if the race for mental health needs a more meme-ish companion race. Maybe around one hour of wacky cars around some F1 ciruit
does the editor have a spotify playlist? great background music :)
The second song caught my attention immediately, gives me heavy Xenon Racer vibes.
His head sticking up like a barn door 😭😭 lol 😂
i love how the roll cage on those old cars was just the drivers head.
Would love to see you try this series with more oddball cars or unique cars kinda like the Dodge little red express or the ram SRT 10 or potentially the Cummins diesel special Indy cars
That would be fun.
@@BubbaBearGames don’t worry I’m not picky when I say more oddball and unique cars. I don’t just mean the ones that I listed those were just the first that came to mind when thinking of a good example
Jimmy Broadbent - More fun than a General Election.
If you wanted to drive something that was made for racing, take the Lotus Type 56 for a drive. Turbine powered, 4wd indycar that almost won the 500 on 2 different years before turbines were banned as well as runing in modified form in the 1971 F1 season with a best of 8th at Monza. There's also a handful of turbine powered sports racers including one of the first garage 57 cars in the Rover-BRM prototype from the 60s in the attempt to win a fuel efficiency cup. That is of course if either of those cars have mods for AC
9:00 the situation combined with the soundeffect literly made me laugh for 5 minutes straight and repeating the scene like 15 times xD
18:28 the "this is the Kevin Estre line" was dark mate
if you wanna make kind of a series out of this you should try to lap the Mercedes-Benz T80 around the nordschleife, if there's a mod for this.
A Nords video?! Always love videos with this track!
Imagine these in a current day racing series. Modern brakes and tires and a roll cage maybe some downforce instead of slipforce. Would be so interesting but ig in wrecks there would be a problem w the turbine flying out the car and taking off in a random direction
A full online race in these would be something amazing xD
2:09 cabo fiba!!! :D
Reminds me of driving the bus the level of planning on how you're going to brake when there's a frail 80 year old woman standing in the aisle is unbelievable
0:05 rip bro got send
You need to make “How fast can the *insert car* lap the nordschleife?” Into a series jimmer 🙏
Would be awesome if you made a laptime list of all the cars you raced around Nordschleife, like top gear but for sim instead.
new era of Jimmy Broadbent?
That lap time was honestly pretty surprising
Ha epic! Not a car I thought I'd ever see doing a Nords lap!
Nordschleife in weird cars is finally back HECK YEAAAAAAAAAAAA
"Let's see how fast a gas turbine land speed record car from the 1950s can lap the Nordschleife". This, ladies and gentleman, is Jimmy Broadbent.
Amazing! Honestly! Next time I would love to see you ride a T-Rex. I guess this is possible in AC ;)
Doesn't look like anyone's mentioned the Howmet TX or the Rover BRM Gas Turbine cars. No mods for them as I can see but they're worth a look just to hear them run at Classic Lemans and the like!
I'd love to see a Chrysler Patriot mod. Turbine power *AND* a flywheel hybrid system!
Project Cars 2 has a Lotus 56 GP car. Good fun.
I think I saw that car at the museum at Le Mans back in '06.
I'd love to see this car with modern F1 slicks, I wonder how good this car could potentially be
So who would like to see Jimmy do a pillion lap on a motorbike around a short circuit somewhere???
car dont go vroom... car go zoom
Classic Jimmy entertainment!
I assume this was suggested before but I think it would be really cool to see Jimmy trying out the Chaparral 2J around the Nordschleife if he can find a mod for it
Land speed record cars aren't really cars, they're planes that have been convinced to stay on the ground.
For some reason, I would really like to see this car engineer's reaction to this video.
I think the modders have made a mistake. Beeing a turboshaft, the turbine rpm are directly related to the speed of the car. So it wouldnt be possible to spool the engine in corners.
35k rpm is max, but the rpm during its 300kph record run was "only" 28k rpm. So it would have to go way above 300kph to ever hit 35k rpm.
Oh man time to sit on toilet and watch this banger
Like the new editing
i miss your nordschleife hotlaps
35k rpm is insane like imagine a 35k rpm piston engine
Missed opportunity to drive this with the new Moza flight stick
I have a mod of this car body in Automation, never knew it was a real car.
Gas Turbine cars are so goddamn cool
The absolute nerve not to have a pedal cam and robbing us of 15 minutes of twinkle-toes.
I'll have to give her a whirl at 30s Avus. Sounds like a blast!
on the upside with a couple more mods you could have a pop out pair of wings and a tail and bang, flying car.
It still boggles my mind how long it took for the greatest minds in racing just couldnt come up with improving suspension and wheels and brakes. Saftey even. But they sure loved straight 8 plane motors with single or twin superchargers that couldnt put the power down at all or stop at all
It would be cool if you added the times the leader board you had for your lap time challenges. It would be nice to see what the Turbine car was equal too.
Its funny 😆 how the guys head is the roll cage
you need to take that thing around the daytona oval that would be insane!
The Myth The Man The Broadbent
More of these please! I feel like I'm watching a Shed video!!🏚
Interesting that they chose a gas turbine with a power turbine to drive the wheels. Rather than just use jet thrust (as later land speed record cars did). It probably makes it a bit more drivable on a track.
Big up John Moza
This thing with f1 tires? That would be interesting...
🤣
i want a sim rig so bad, oh my god you have no idea
Jimmer, have you ever been to the Coventry motor musuem? If not, get it on the bucket list. Especially since you are a fan of land speed record
