@@jonnyj. Rob supplied the money. Most of it was done by other people, he wasn't alone. I remember talking to rob on RX7club.com when rob first bought his fd and was getting beat by his brothers GTR, I have know who Rob is before he had a KZbin channel. Rob is not a great driver, he is not a great engineer. He has Money and is persistent. With that type of money I could build something that worked better in a lot less time. I respect what rob has done but you can go give him an ego reach around. A Billet 4 rotor is an expensive engine, way more than the V-8 in the Hoon. Rob basiclly stole the Front suspension of the Hoon. The Hoon is basically a boosted Nascar engine, have you ever priced out a billet 4 rotor?

And who's to say that he "can't" just buy it off of ford? Maybe he had the opportunity, but passed. I don't even know who actually owns the car. We fans all have a strong attachment to the hoonicorn, and I'm sure Ken does too... to a point. Or he may just see it as a tool that was used to create content and not important enough to him to try to retain. I would guess that he had the chance to purchase/keep it and must've decided against it for whatever reason. All I have is speculation though.

Funny because I just had a build where its shakedown was literally race day, that's not an easy thing to race with when that happens. My question is if/when you will set the electronics up for flat-foot shifting, because everything you need for it you pretty much already have; and it would take your times to a whole new level (After you're comfortable and have some more debugging done). Also, the hood flying back like that I consider a good thing, now you can cut that entire center section of roof off and replace it with carbon fiber. Keep it up, you got some good stuff there.

Became a fan because of the footage and genius that got you there. Talking shop, you rocked that meeting with the GOAT and his team. What makes this even more bonkers is that you did this without your "A" game! To create, drive, hold your own and to have not gotten owned is how you meet a legend it's neither a win nor a loss but an OPPORTUNITY to sharpen your craft. Being aware of this is guru level mental. Your analytical skills under pressure and your ability to adapt on the fly with such little experience are phenomenal. For you to be able to articulate the experience with 20/20 hindsight after reviewing all of the raw data collected makes you a true "threat" to the think tanks that lost to the Hoonigans miserably.

Anyone else mildly hoping they're gonna see their own order being put together when he cuts to the Hoonicorn blood/shipping segments?

As a viewer who came when you had the yellow Gallardo and left, came back when this build started and left again because it seemed to stagnate. I am happy to see this thing and have been viewing since this build started. I predicted and was right you would be racing the Hoonicorn. To see this data after seeing the race I respect it, And I just watched a 1320 video with the worlds fastest rotary pass before this. I want to see this thing rip and hold together, even if it doesn't break records. But I do think it can definitely break records.

Not that anybody knows how to drive the car you built but you but..........flat foot shifts to keep turbo spooled and quite possibly drive it to break it you eventually find the weak spots. The first car I ever actually built I babied for a bit and when I did dog on it it would always break so instead of giving up I did like you and just found the weak spots and fixing it. It made me learn so so much

I agree you need more protection from that drivetrain but its also super cool to see so many dynamic parts exposed, the rear shock coming under compression as you launch and shift for example. I'm sure there's something to be said for tuning just by watching how the rear suspension loads when you launch, etc. Awesomeness all around Rob🤙🏼

Really enjoyed watching the race. Glad you shared the data. Besides overcoming habits, you also showed another neurological feature; External Motivation (in this case, competition). When we are pushed, we learn quicker.

That was an awesome race, in order to give you an advice, you should pass your gears without releasing your gaz and that would be possible with a quickshifting technologie similar to a quickshifter from a race bike and this type of gear shifting should let you keep your boost and keep a linear acceleration. Keep going on your project, love what your doing 👌

ROB. YOU KILLED IT. Seriously, the cajones required to drive a car like that is nuts. Get some seat time, get that sequential shifting faster. I'd recommend staying full MANUAL clutch release (no flow valve) so you can better control your launches. Once you're comfy in Ahura she'll probably drive better with more of your input.
