10 Race Cars That Deserved Better

[@larubric]

There is something so oddly amusing that in a sport where you typically think of the contestants as these aerodynamic sleek race cars that one of them was just a fat box with fans on the end.

Although these cars have not been very successful in racing, they are among the most iconic and recognizable cars for any racing fan, so they will be remembered forever. I don't know if you can ask for anything more from a failed project.

[@scottmiller1531]

Great list. Not furious about anything on it. Others would be the Ford RS200, The Porsche Indycars (both the '80-81Interscope and the '89-90 debacle) and the Lancia LC-1

[@samhinder2224]

The RS200 actually did see some success, it was used extensively in Rallycross during the late 80s and early 90s where it got some pretty notable wins, and was the primary rival to the Lancia Delta S4

[@arono2341]

But the Lancia did win 3 races and was fast enough for Ricardo Patrese come 2° in the campionship, the groupe C rules did make the life of the car short tho

[@badgers1975]

​@@samhinder2224Especially in the hands of the only Stig ,Stig Blomquist

[@ShreN_]

The RS200 was meant to have rapid revisions with development season to season / each year, but ofc Group B died before they could do that. Partly because of the RS200's crash in Portugal killing spectators. Ofc, the Lancia Delta S4 crash which killed the driver and co-driver was what really killed Group B, but really it was a combination of every lethal incident leading up to it IMO

[@davidwilliams9302]

Mercedes Indycar!

[@marcoseirik]

In stead of the WSC-95 you should have mentioned the Porsche LMP2000, that was supposed to to succeed the 911 GT1, but was cancelled and eventually morphed into the Carrera GT.

[@IparIzar]

The wingless 9X8 deserved a mention, it was doing really welll in it's Le Mans debut but it had mechanical issues, after that Peugeot gave it a wing and couldn't keep up with the rest during this years race.

[@Box1-lf9hv]

The 9X8 did got two podiums. Last year at 6 Hours of Monza and this year's 8 Hours of Bahrain with the new 9X8, that finished originally 4th, although 3rd due to the 51 Ferrari stripped from podium because of exceeding its tire allocation. The new 9X8 did also finished 4th at Fuji, which is another good result for it. The wingless 9X8 could have also got a podium at Qatar, but it sadly ran out of fuel and got DQ'd afterwards (F you, ACO and FIA.) Tbh, if I ran Peugeot Sport, I could have actually just create a new car with a wing from the beginning of the program instead of a wingless one.

[@marklittle8805]

​@Box1-lf9hvthey didn't let the wind tunnel tell them if it would work, they just stubbornly tried to create a wingless prototype.

[@julianturberfield7101]

Tbf, the 9X8 is being HAMMERED by BoP atm. I don't know what the FIA seems to think they know, but going by the BoP last I checked it's possibly the fastest car in the field unrestricted.

[@mikeroshier6560]

Peugeot said they had issues running the car at the optimal ride height so couldn't get the most out of the wingless car. They modified it and added the wing so the car had a bigger setup window, and from this years WEC season, they've been a hell of a lot more consistent

[@Chr.Monika6469]

Even me a Porsche enthusiast who always loved the 959, sometimes forget it was originally built as a Group b rally car lol

[@badgers1975]

And to develop technology up to the year 2000, it was an absolute weapon and you can't forget there'd be no R34 skyline if nissan hadn't bought one and took it to bits to see how it ticked

[@mathai_9150]

Especially because it beat up the Ferrari F40

[@badgers1975]

@mathai_9150 the F40 was built just to be quicker and if you dig it actually wasn't, the 959 is a true marvel

[@mathai_9150]

@badgers1975 yeah, I know. And even funnier is that Enzo said that aerodynamics are for people who can't build engines. Got his le mans prototypes beaten by ford with a 7l V8 Brick, and later bis F1 derived F40 failed to beat a 2.9l F6 Porsche that wasn't even built for road racing but to go off-road

[@R32GT-R_Takeshi]

Wish they actually gave the Nismo GT-R LM a better chance. Would've been quite cool a car if it ran the way it was suppose to

[@lorenzodicosmo2708]

I hate Nissan for what they did. They spent so much money on an innovative car and when it was time to race it wasn’t done in time, an hybrid car without hybrid, they could’ve just work on it for the 2016 season (or just Le Mans) but instead they completely retired it even before it could run at its full potential.

[@davidwilliams9302]

The Nissan may or may not have been great, but 1000% proof why the marketing department should not run the racing program.

[@jorickschaffef1461]

The peugeot 9x8 in wec and the 1969 and 1970 wing cars in nascar deservec better also.

[@oliwhere]

Great video idea and great video! Another car I'd add to the list is the Koenigsegg CCGT. Designed for the GT1 regulations, but just as it was ready, the regulations were changed. I imagine if the first step into racing had worked for Koenigsegg, they might have built other cars for racing, maybe a prototype.

[@JohnCharb87]

[@stevenkilsdonk2046]

There's a Gordon Murray video where talks about the Fan Car. He asked a lawyer, what "primary purpose of a movable device" meant in his interpretation. That at least 50% of the purpose is not aerodynamic. So Gordon calculated and found that 55% of the fan's airflow was through the radiators, 45% sucking the car to the ground. The FIA did a test of their own and came out with nearly the identical figure.

2nd and 3rd overall and 1st and 2nd in the GT1 class wasn't bad in 1997 given the only car that beat it was the WSC-95 LMP which technically was quicker, that said the quickest Longtail BMW Motorsport No42 driven by JJ Lehto might have won overall if he'd finished.

The TS020 is a sad story. As a fan of the car. The machine had everything on it’s side to be successful. But luck was the only thing against it.

[@badgers1975]

I would have been a much more deserving winner that the rule bending, slow , Mazda 787

[@tylercampbell2362]

@@badgers1975 Bro what are you on about? The TS020 competed 8 years after the 787, the 787 didn't win the year the TS020 lost, as a matter of fact they were developed under completely different regulation sets. Nothing about the 787 was "rule bending" it competed in the C2 class the year it won, which had more restrictions on it than the primary C1 class, they were even dropped further down the grid then they qualified as C1 cars were moved up, with the race winning Mazda and their best qualifier starting 19th. They specd the LeMans car for reliability and fuel efficiency, not outright pace. You're mad that a car won an endurance race with endurance racing tactics lmao. This might be news to you, but the outright fastest cars very often don't win LeMans, because again, it is an ENDURANCE race. Not a sprint. And your statement about "rule bending" is an outright lie.

[@badgers1975]

So "negotiation" a 20% larger fuel tank than any other c2 is not an advantage

[@tylercampbell2362]

@@badgers1975 lmfao again, what are you on about? Go find me a source-even secondhand-claiming the Mazda had a 20% bigger fuel tank than their competitors. You can’t because that’s pure nonsense. Look up the regulations, the entry sheets, etc. They were actually at a disadvantage with fuel because unlike C1 cars who were allowed to use unlimited fuel, C2 cars were limited to 2,550 L of fuel for the race. It’s a well known and often discussed fact with the 787b that the drivers were instructed to go as fast as possible while saving as much fuel as possible, and it is this fact that is often credited with giving them the win. If you’re going to be salty and disparage the team and car who won fair in square the least you can do is not pull shit out of thin air that’s complete bullshit with no factual basis supporting it whatsoever 🤣🤣

I think a pretty interesting racing story is the team that Emerson Fittipaldi made in 1975, but never did all that well. Emerson’s brother was on the team but even he didn’t do well

[@scottmiller1531]

Good one. The wake of that car/team does make for some interesting stories. Without it, James Hunt might just be another flash in the pan driver instead of WC and peerless announcer. And Fittipaldi's career resurrection in the US was something to behold.

[@bezoekers]

Wilson set up the team and raced for it in 1975. Emerson only moved to the team in 1976, but Wilson wasn't racing anymore by then. Wilson ran the team for the most part, while Emerson ran his career into the ground.

[@arthurlecuyer1906]

This is a great list. Unfortunately it didn’t include the brutality fast but super fragile front engined Mustang GTP. A beautiful however spectacularly unusual layout for a top flight sports car.

[@justshutupingo6266]

My old love the 307 WRC is missing. It had poor reliability, that 4 gear transmission was the worst idea in WRC in decades, but great speed in the first year and was hampered by the Pirelli tires in the second season, when Michelin was clearly best in class. After that Peugeot pulled out of WRC. I'm sure it had the potential of giving Loeb and Citroen much more trouble. The engine was the fastest in class and it had great aerodynamics.

[@Dmooreslotreviews]

If there was a more modern list of cars, I would put the Mazda RT24-P. Another car that that was within this time line was the Jordan 199. Imagine if Jordan won the F1 WC.

I have a modern one to add to this list. The NGTC spec, BTCC Audi A4. If Driver/Owner Rob Austin had been a little luckier in sponsorship acquisition, and being able to hire the drivers he wanted, the cars Sherman and Panzer could have been BMW slaying weapons and championship threats. Instead we got a midfield packing team with occasional flashes of speed and a whole 1 race win instead.

[@badgers1975]

It was ridiculously unreliable

[@fontheking5]

The 2008 hatchback Subaru Impreza WRC is another great contender, launched partly through the 2008, to replace the underperforming, unreliable and ill-handling saloon version that was used in 2006, 2007 and early in 2008. The hatchback finished it's first rally ( in Greece ) in second place, but sadly Subaru pulled out of WRC after the 2008 season, probably due to the recession, it was a very sad fate for a car that deserved alot better. Ford RS200 also arrived to late to the Group B class, and could have done alot better if Group B had continiued for longer, but sadly the tragic accidents in 1986 spelled the end of Group B, but just like the Metro 6R4 it did end up in rallycross aswell.

[@kgames9403]

I would add the Nissan GT-R LM Nismo from 2015. A very interesting concept that ran one race at Le Mans and was never given the chance for more development after.

[@automobilistic]

[@brandonmott674]

I was going to say the same thing, they found a "loophole" in the rules they thought they could exploit to get very high downforce very efficiently it was just rushed and poorly managed that it never worked correctly. In sims where it still isn't accurate to the original plan it still is somewhat competitive if driven well and it has crazy straight line speed due to it's design. I think the real car they had hoped to have the energy recovery be deployed from the rear wheels which would've made it AWD in the acceleration zones where it suffers most

[@samacw]

Cool idea. Let's add the Simtek F1 project, the Ford RS200, the Escort Cosworth, the Mercedes CLK GT1 and the LMP675 class.

[@Starfire_Storm]

The Mercedes CLK GT1? You mean the CLK GTR/LM? The car that was so good that it literally killed the GT1 class? I mean, it surely deserves a better reputation because the 1999 CLR destroyed the reputation of the CLK GTR completely unfairly.

It was fixed, but it lost a lot of positions after repairs and ultimately finished with a poor position. the following year, NASCAR announced that their Garage 56 entry has been retired, so it was never given a second chance.

The TVR Speed 12. Another one killed by rule changes before it hit the track. Then famously cancelled as a road car when the company boss, in possibly the ONLY socially conscious measure the company ever took, declared it too dangerous to be put into the hands of the typical road driving customer. Let's see, aluminium chassis, fibreglass body, and ... a monster 7.7 litre V12 with a power output north of 900 BHP. With NO driver safety aids whatsoever. One example was built, and the owner was specially vetted before being allowed to buy (and drive) it. It's been described as Satan's Own Chariot. Also considered frightening to drive even by professional racing drivers.

[@gameboyterrorysta6307]

Important things to note about P34: - Scheckter said years later that his negative comments were more result of frustration than genuine opinion about the car. Biggest issues of 6 wheel designs was tyre wear and brake ballance: - Smaller diameter wheels were rotating at much higher rotational speeds, causing issues with overheating and excessive wear - 3 axle design made typical front-rear brake ballance not viable and drivers struggled to find proper ballance between both of front axles. This issue made it extremely easy to lock up front wheels and made trailbraking almost impossible, exagerating already serious issues with tyre wear.

[@mushter17]

Great video, so many legends covered there. For me, Toyota TS010 needs a mention for sure. Savage car that should have won more. I'd also say the 1994 Toyota, the one that was within an hour of winning Le Mans until its gear linkeage failed, leaving the driver (I believe Brilliant Bob Wollek?) fumbling under the cover to pull it into gear while the Dauer 962 sailed on by. I'd also say the Lola Aston B09/60. A truly epic car that won a lot in ELMS, but never stood a chance at the Big One thanks to the diesels.

One car that deserved better, not because it was unsuccessful, but because it doesn't get the recognition it deserves, is 100% the Jaguar XJR-14. It dominated the 1991 WSC season, and yet, because Jaguar pulled it from Le Mans, it doesn't get nearly as remembered as it should, much unlike the Mazda 787B that gets far more recognition than it deserves out of a massively unsuccessful 2 years of competition, just because it won Le Mans. While the 787B appears everywhere and everyone knows it, even creating ridiculous myths around it, the XJR-14 is barely remembered, and it doesn't even appear in games at all, unlike other much more unsuccessful Group C cars.

[@badgers1975]

787 is one of the most overrated le mans cars in history

[@simonkevnorris]

I went to Silverstone to watch the sports car race there and saw 👀 the XJR-14 in action. At the time the Abbey chicane consisted a left hand turn a very short straight and then a right hand turn. Most cars were braking for the first turn, sort of ran on for the straight and then took the right hander. The XJR-14 accelerated on the short straight.

[@Tubesmaney]

I saw the Trans Am Audi Quattro in 1988 when it was still relatively unrestricted. What a monster that car was, passing people on the outside and just generally walking away from the competition - it was great to see!

[@simonkevnorris]

Strictly speaking the 6 wheel F1 car concept didn't die out with the Tyrrell as Williams were developing a 6 wheel (4 rear wheels the same size as the front tyres) FW08 in the early 1980s. I think they may have been developing a FW07 version as well before switching to the FW08. This development was halted when rules were introduced limiting the number of wheels to 4. I think Cosworth were also developing a 6 wheeler that included 4WD - I saw the chassis in the York Car Museum in WA.

[@exF3-86]

I think Tyrrell got a good idea wrong, and Williams got it right by having the dual axle at the back of the FW08B. Better traction, the 2 X fat rears were replaced with 4 X fronts leading to better aero overall until the whole idea was shut down by the 1983+ rules. We won't talk about the Ferrari 312T6...

speaking of Toyota, the Toyota TS050 easily deserved the win at the 2016 Le Mans but a hose clamp had other ideas

I have a great Car you should do a Video on. The 1969 Dodge Daytona/ Plymouth Superbird. They were banned from Nascar because they were alot faster than its competition. And Their 426 hemi was also banned

The 2J's only real success is as a proof of concept. It was terrible as a racecar due to its unreliability. It was a cool idea, but kicking up debris was a real concern. Had the fan not been banned and reliability issue solved, a grid of 20-30 fan cars throwing debris at each other (and any unfortunate bystanders) is not a realistic proposition to let slide without regulatory intervention of some kind. On the WSC-95, it did get a few opportunities to race outside of LM24. Thing is that sportscar prototype racing was in a weird place in the after FIA SWC and the IMSA GTP were defunct. In Europe, the ISRS was tryng to get off the ground but the lack of participation led to low grid numbers. The WSC-95 raced at the 1997 ISRS race at Donington and easily won. It was supposedly entered for another race but withdrawn and the ISRS was no more. The car was invited to race in the US by the IMSA successor series, but Joest turned them down because much like the fiasco of 1995, they would've been too hindered in performance be competitive for a win.

another interesting car would have been the sauber mercedes c291 or c292. the audi lmdh car could also be another subject.

McLaren: "ban the 2J, it's cheating and ejecting gravel into the air!" Also McLaren: "we're gonna make our own F1 fan car, something that's never been done before!"

[@igorlis380]

When did mclaren make an F1 fan car?

[@will_fischy13]

Where did you get your model F1? I need one now

[@robjohnfox2223]

Hardly furious lol,was a good list but the Toyota 7 maybe? and and someone else suggested the RS200 group B.

[@rocketman1058]

The biggest damage and suffrage to Toyota GtOne came from having M. Brundle behind the wheel
