Rookie Mistakes When Driving a Fast Car

[@FitmentIndustries]

We're all friends here, name a rookie mistakes you made! Reply below! www.fitmentindustries.com

[@yespls3024]

Sending an open diff e36 into a ditch. 30$ in damage. Worth

[@RichLifeStories]

Driving a BMW 325I 6 speed manual sport pkg. Giving too much gas while turning/merging onto the highway while it was raining. Ended up spinning out and going up the ramp under the bridge, barly missing the wall. $0 worth of damage but i learned a valuable lesson.

[@jackson.2171]

Definitely not my proudest moment, but I'll share to emphasize the point. I finally saved up enough for a 1st gen Genesis Coupe 3.8. Got it and drove it home, and it was the fastest car I'd ever driven. First RWD car as well. It was the first car that I had bought with my own money rather than sharing a parents car. I decided to take it out on a back road I had nearby, and I was choosing to ignore my nearly bald tires that I bought it with. I got going around a turn, and the back end slipped out on a little patch of dirt that had blown on the road. Being inexperienced, I did what someone who has only driven FWD would do to correct it. I put that pedal on the ground. Jumped a curb and sideswiped a fire extinguisher. Car was totaled the day I bought it. (luckily I got a decent check from it and was able to go and buy a MazdaSpeed 3 which has been great). Go to a parking lot and LEARN HOW YOUR CAR HANDLES. It's a horrible feeling to see your car destroyed as you sit there waiting to be picked up by a friend.

[@artsohc]

Rookie mistakes: Don't add power until you've added brakes. Don't add power until you've added traction. Don't add power until you have mastered the stock powerplant. Watch Initial D. Takumi is the man because he overcomes the lack of power, not because he has tons of power. Understand the difference between a car with an LSD and without. Know what you have. Looking at you 335i owners. Understand that smooth steering wheel motions make for a less upset car. Understand that losing traction should not cause you to immediately put on the brakes. Knowing understeer vs. oversteer and how you can achieve them using acceleration/braking/steering. Go find an empty parking lot and learn. Expect your driveline to be designed for stock power, so once you start adding power expect everything around you to break.

[@Immashift]

Drive up to Canada during a blizzard. You'll very quickly understand that small corrections mean you get to keep driving and big OMFG corrections send you into three feet of snow. After driving something performance designed through a Canadian winter without hitting anything, I think you're ready for everything.

"Understand the difference between a car with an LSD and without. Know what you have. Looking at you 335i owners." - Absolutely hilarious because I went through this and got VERY lucky. Please please please take it to an empty parking lot before trying stupid stunts on public roads ... OR if you have the money get an LSD asap. Also DTC > traction control off, you still have a chance whereas t/c off you're kinda fucked.

[@HippieSkippy100]

Take your car to a long straight by yourself and test your car launches. Learn how it handles first, with/out traction control, then test it’s cornering, how it breaks loose, what rpms to launch, how your tires stick. Don’t just send it thinking you can handle it. Baby steps first. Don’t turn your car platform into a meme. (Mustang community) Oh and if you do launch and it starts breaking loose to one side, don’t be an idiot and keep stepping on the gas, let it go gradually until you have grip again. Same goes for braking. Don’t stomp on the brakes at high speeds, tap on it until you have a descent. You could lock your pads. Happy sending.

[@christopherbrooke2142]

Practicing launches is fun until you have to call your parents at 11 at night when you have to tell them your axles are fucked and your driveshaft’s UJ is lying forty feet behind the car

[@k.c.slawncare6046]

If you live in a colder environment, purposely inducing a loss of traction and going into a power slide or small drift in the winter is a good way to learn the behaviour of your vehicle. I did this with my father's Cherokee all winter long.

[@_kodojak]

Throughout my college years I drove my father's 2005 Toyota Highlander (base stock). A couple years after graduation, I was still sharing the Highlander as a daily with him. It was already on 280k miles. Figured I should get my first car. Saved up a bit. Had the choice between a new common car (Altima , corrolla, etc) or give a good search for a used car within the budget. I have little knowledge about cars, good thing got KZbin! After a driven search for 2 weeks, I locked my vision for a specific 2002 Jaguar XKR in Aspen Green Mica with 9,680 miles. Beautiful. All the way out in Santa Barbara. The whole buying experience of the XKR is another story in itself. A months ordeal; tears shed upon doubt. Mostly financial hurdles. -> bought the car & shipped it to NY. My friends and family were concerned that I didn't fly over to check the car in person. My mechanic did a full inspection and said "the car is in great condition, the only thing you need to keep an eye out is the next oil change." Wow, what a relief. It's now been 7 months and words cannot explain the amount of fun & thrill I have driving this car. It's my first car! I even picked up interior/exterior detailing as a hobby. The places I've driven to with my dog, the amazing people I've met, the late night drives for thought, even the friendly strangers that admires. I believe I made the right choice. To think how different my life will be right now had I settled for new.

[@wilfredobautista6324]

The strangers that admire... I added Decepticon logos to my used 2015 Challeneger SXT and I hope they feel what I felt when I saw the logos on any car

[@bigguy5629]

do you still own it?

[@_kodojak]

@@bigguy5629 Yes! I ran into my first series of codes that gave me restricted performance for months, but thankfully (really grateful) that Jaguar has such a wonderful community and with many forum brainiacs that helped me resolved my repairs all DIY. Gives me a huge boost of confidence in being able to work on my own car; That F&F scene when Diesel rebuilds his Charger for the last race. My dad was in his tank top smoking his cig with his hands on the hips and was like “you know what you’re doing?” I was like “yuhp,” 10 mins later we’re driving by Costco for a cruise. (This also gives my dad that closure that I can actively learn and do things myself) Brings me joy every single time. Investment well paid off in all ways. I encourage you to try one. Going to refresh the driver’s seat leather next, it’s my daily ;)

[@artsohc]

I remember in high school I had a 1997 Mustang GT. It wasn't very powerful, it only had around 220HP. However, I took time to learn how the car handled. I added fatter tires and better brake pads and rotors before I touched anything else on the car. In comparison, I had friends with E36 M3s and 3000GT VR4 and Eclipse GTXs and 300ZXs etc. all of which were faster than me on paper and they always struggled to keep up with me. My buddy with the 3000GT VR4 used to tell people "put artsohc in any car and it immediately gains 100HP". Power is nothing without the ability to utilize it correctly. There is a reason people in Miata's can smoke people in significantly more powerful cars when on a twisty road/track. It's better to be known as a good driver than as the person with the most power...who eventually puts all that power into a ditch.

[@arch1028]

My 2004 cadillac cts with 260 hp and 250tq is quick for me but I know in a couple years Ima see what a fast car really is like , anyways same here I beat some gnarly cars that are suppose to be able to destroy me and I guess thats cause people think they can just take off after buying high end cars

Its crazy. Meanwhile I'm driving a 2006 corolla trying to find a used Camaro for sale. Update: so today is 12-2-19, on 11-15-19 I totaled that 06 corolla bc of some dumbass in a pickup coming into my lane making me go into a guardrail at 60, and on 11-17-19 I finally bought a Camaro, a 1987 Camaro IROC Z/28 with T-tops and a 305 V8

I drove my e90 M3 for about a month before I even thought about going into fill sport mode and little by little started working on flooring it and steering still practicing before I go full tc off on a track or back roads this car has taught me alot about driving ngl and before I thought about adding power I changed stuff that was known to fail like the rod bearing and added cooling and tires before I added anything else

[@lockenessmotorsports818]

Don't lift off when you've lost traction esp in rwd and tbh fwd when it goes you literally need to plant it through the floor to get it back

[@ForestxWalker06]

Currently drive a 04 v6 ram 1500 rwd , my question is what’s traction on a wet road ??? Me and fish tailing hung out today though with my tires that are still in a good shape

[@dubzybc5457]

Do you want to pull wheelies in a dodge challenger here's what you need to know

[@mortalbonds]

a 600hp 4 wheel drive gated gallarado?? safe or check axle?

[@CaptainRudy4021]

Alex: 3:22 Chevy Cobalt SS SC/TC: *am I a joke to you?*

[@calebstoykofit]

Just an idea but to counter tq steer cant manufacturers gear the slower accelerating wheel a little differently to the faster one?? Or is that not gonna work well? Or could like they do something else?

[@Schimml0rd]

I think it's worth more to have direct feedback rather than a car which steers on its own^^

[@wanderingbufoon]

Spongebob: "floor it?" Patrick, an intellectual: "big toe"

[@TrainerCTZ]

My FIRST rwd car, brand new 2007 350 Z. "Hey Manny, jump in for a ride" I attempt to show my understeer skills (lack of) off in my gym parking lot.....seconds later I've gone over a 5 inch curb into the a ditch causing 20k in damage. I'll never forget that feeling "NO NO NO."

[@daveb55]

8:14 me thinking about where I’m gonna get food from

[@geometryjosh21]

Can i drive a manual if I pass in an automatic or do I have to one in a manual? I live in Alabama and I'm gonna do my test soon so i wanted to know

[@Alex68dash]

Full throttle is the best type of throttle discipline

[@MichaelDKmann]

I've watched nearly all your videos the past few days and subscribed as well, love the content you guys put out - wheel history is my favorite, learning about the wheel companies is great! You guys should do a "the truth about..." Videos for Advanti, Ambit, Titan, Asanti to name a handful. Those are brands I've heard and seen their name but don't know much about and your videos have helped me learn a ton! Thanks again.

[@SatanAzerath]

Something I never have to worry about anyone telling me... Do a burnout. I drive a Honda Fit. XD Haha street cred zero. And then I eat your Mustang. >.>

[@filopride619]

Showing off is a fool's idea of glory, so don't feel bad. At least you smoke Mustangs

[@Cam-dn9ed]

My brother has a first gen Jazz, he has been told to do burnouts at meets and he stuns the crowd every single fucking time he does one. Goes from laughter as the tires start spinning to cheering as he holds it. If people tell you to spin the tires, do it bud, hold it and the crowd will love you for it

[@teamswagization]

Went from a 2002 honda civic Si to a ford focus St... that torque steer is crazy..

[@griffincates5327]

That drag race blowup caught me off guard oh my god

[@Kamikaze-pe4bh]

Weird never had issues with torquesteer in my opel Astra 2005

[@joeyzamora24]

Reading DRMNG on the thumbnail 😂

[@kaedinstenberg2652]

I got my car like a year ago at age 13 now I'm 14 almost 15 so I'm close to driving it now which is very exciting to me, I have a 2006 mk5 tdi Jetta that's stick and here in the next couple months I'm getting bags, stage 3 tune since it already had stage 2, a new turbo, a new performance clutch, straight piping it, and some new wheels really excited for what's to come

[@trey4278]

THE MOST INFOMATIVE VID IVE SEEN IN YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@sambailey2295]

saw this video a while ago, didn't think I would need it anytime soon, then found out I was lucky as hell and getting an 08 bullitt as a first car and might actually need it now.

[@godalmighty8018]

Thumbnail: rookie mistakes when drMg a fast car

[@Yetbruh]

I have a question guys whenever somebody drive fast right is it harder to control the steering wheel then if u were to drive normallay?

[@TheA1M4fame]

Watching this in preparation for my new job as a Tofu delivery driver.

[@seth1530]

My first car was a Cobalt ls 2.2 fwd. I just upgraded and bought myself a 2018 challenger RT with the 5.7l hemi. I plan on building it up, but it is plenty fast, and fun for me right now. It's very, very easy to break the rear wheels loose. Overall it has been a huge change to a rear wheel drive car, and it definitely handles differently.

[@thisismerica5721]

I thought the thumbnail said "DRMNG" I was like, what?

[@theenzoferrari458]

[@evansutherland8060]

What are those gold rims bottom left ?

[@prozoomy]

still love my fwd Honda's😍

[@Gjeebs]

Thanks for the feature! #STnation

[@pseudocode7453]

did alex just say stock modifications? @1:23

[@levifontaine8186]

My first job was as a transport driver for a car dealership (still have that job and love it). Before I knew much about cars, I got into a 640 hp Cadillac CTS-V, not knowing what it actually was. I thought it was a rich Karen sedan. I was.... noticeably wrong but it was the most amazing thing I've driven aside from the Corvette.

[@xTtownThump24x]

I love it thanks for the cavalier shoutout and now I actually own a much faster Dodge Challenger lol

[@quenguin2178]

First car I got with any kind of power was going from a Hyundai getz 1.1GSI straight to a BMW 118D (122BHP). Spun it out and smashed up the rear drivers side alloy

[@Kradle]

I love my fwd '15 Focus ST

[@daniel-kun6443]

I really needed to stop the video to clear up the misconception about torque steering. It isn't caused because the steering rack is off center. The reason torque steering occurs is because the wheel outputs the force from the engine at the center of the tire's contact point with the surface, while the pivot of the steering knuckle isn't, sometimes. And so when you put too much throttle, with an open diff, one wheel loses traction, and so the other one will put out some force which will have grip, thus it will rotate the steering knuckle and the rack, and the steering wheel. There is a good video I learned this from. Called suspension geometry.

[@-Burb]

But I like my FWD Toyota Avalon 😆 268hp and 248lb/ft of torque makes me happy I got it as my first car. Maybe if I move somewhere with no snow I’ll get a 350z or something, that would be great.

[@Nash-xh3fi]

I live in northern utah where it snows a lot. should I get a 350z and slap some snow tires on it or get a wrx?

[@FitmentIndustries]

WRX homie lol. 😅

[@ravn_blade]

350z would be fun

[@lamboking8able]

8:16 👍🏾 great save

[@NotKenBlock94]

My dad's 2017 is200t seems to love to kick the rear wheels out when you go to make a turn from a standstill, especially if stability and traction are turned off. Whenever him and my mom go away and they ask me to come watch the house, I'm always happy to because I know I'll get at least a few corners in with the Lexus and getting used to the feeling of oversteer and rwd in general since I'm getting a new car (BRZ) sometime this summer or fall. All-wheel drive has been cool, but it's not the same when you're trying to tear through the backroads.

[@bayonetta3469]

And then u have toyota mr2 with snap oversteer wich is in a class on its own

[@Gohsted]

I daily an MR2. Even when you KNOW it will snap oversteer so you drive accordingly there's moments where it decides you're better off facing 180 degrees in the opposite direction 🤣

[@Darkeclipselm]

Just finished my is300 build, gte rocks!!

[@Beybladeawsomeness]

My first car was a 2008 Kia Rio base. I know, it sounds boring as hell, BUT, It had a 5 speed, and only weighed 2400 pounds, and was actually kinda fun

[@TheChosenOne90]

The part were u talk about modifying your car at 7:26 you remind me of Tom Holland when u say “ you’re playing in a whole new ball game sport” 😂

[@caleb-tc3dz]

Don’t outdrive the consequences you are willing to live with

[@FunkyBananaBear]

BEST QUOTE EVER

[@TNTHammer]

8:12 THAT SAVE THOUGH

[@Thebearwand]

WRX>Mustang. AWD vs overrated and dangerous to large crowds of people. your video quality/content is normally top notch so i'll let that one slide lol

[@chasesmith9398]

I been driving a 91' Toyota forerunner from highschool till now but i just bought my first car 2 weeks ago and it's a 2018 dodge charger RT. I have gone 100 mph on country back roads with it, drove through the mountains in San Andreas and just normal town streets. Is there anything i need to watch out for driving this because so far it just feels like any other car with just a little more power.

[@JoseSanchez-vg6nu]

If you ain't driving fast, then you ain't driving right

[@trevn__]

This is by far the most American comment I've ever seen anywhere on KZbin

Being american and living in a few other countries... Americans are horrible drivers. HORRIBLE

[@xanderzero3000]

theres a lot of reasons for torque steer. suspension geometry is one also. so is the one you mentioned
