2022 European Time Attack Masters - Few laps Mikko Kataja Toyota Starlet

Just few laps from the ETAM 2022 race at Nürburgring GP track. Could not really put a lap together car had much more potential, but it was a great first test possibility with the new rear wing for us.

[@IdarKP60]

I really love the evolution from the beginning the most iconic and inspiring KP!!!!! 💪💪💪💪💪💪I hope to see some day that Rocket on the nordschleife!!! 🙏🤞Best regards Mikko from greece!!!🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🎌

[@VHTRacing]

Thanks, yes we will definitively do Nordschleife one day it's on the list!

[@tisoyt.henares8833]

Wonderful.

[@AlaynHachiRoku]

Amazing as always. Thanks for sharing Mikko!!! 💪🏼💪🏼

[@LRonkainen]

erittäin inspiroivaa. äänet aivan mahtavat. rakastan kattoo näitä videoita ja vieläpä vanhoja uudestaan kun ei meinaa saada tarpeeks. siipikin näytti toimivan hyvin

[@VHTRacing]

Kiitos. Juu eteenpäin pala kerrallaan.

[@jamiehodgins7439]

Sounds great and the balance looks good Mikko

[@VHTRacing]

Hi Jamie, thx. Was a gamechanger the rear wing. Even i had it just at a mild ~5° AoA. In fast corners and braking much more stable. For slower speed tracks i can put it in a steeper angle up to 18° AoA if i just add a little gurney and it can double the downforce to what i had now, approx 60kg. Rear springs were compressed ~10mm more compared to old at 210km/h. Nothing else changed just the wing added.

[@hiperformance71]

Just, WOW!! an Amazing little Rocket! and excellent driving skills, for sure, you will shave off more from this little beast!!

[@jeffreylim5210]

The car very good setup handling & beautiful engine itb sound.

[@darkiseki]

Love seing this thing on a circuit, goes really well!

[@VHTRacing]

Thanks. It's fun to drive at track also.

Hi, it's an amazing machine my friend ! You've made the 11k rpm 4age dream from initialD come true!! I'm currently building an 1.6 8v TU engine in the same "idea", everything custom, goal 200hp and 10K rpm. But i have a question about your build, what cranking compression do you have in bar/psi ? Thanks !

[@sigged]

no way you gonna make power at 10k RPM with a 8 valve engine reliably no matter the money you toss at it

[@abarthcorse3750]

Hi Mikko, ist der neue Heckspoiler nur für die Rundstrecke oder fährst Du den auch am Berg? Du hattest ja den Andreas Lanz auch in Deiner Klasse. Ein schöner AE86 und noch nicht allzu sehr verbastelt. Er hat bloß ein paar PS weniger wie Du. Leider fährt er nicht mehr am Berg.

[@VHTRacing]

Ja wir fahren natürlich auch am Berg mit diese neue Flügel. Es war nur meine erste Möglichkeit es zu testen am NBR. Ich habe kurz mit Andreas auch besprochen, schade hat am Ende kein Zeit mehr zu reden.

[@SidewaysGts]

What an amazing vehicle. If I may ask- How long does this engine typically last between rebuilds?

[@VHTRacing]

One hillclimb season, let's say depending on the type and length of races at least ~15 races no problem.

[@SidewaysGts]

@@VHTRacing Ah so longer than I expected. Whats *usually* involved with a typical rebuild when youre doing it this frequently? Ie: Is there something that usually breaks / is weak, or predominantly just resealing the engine / replacing bearings, is any of the hardware in particular stretching more than others (head bolts, rod bols, main bolts, whatever)? Etc. Do you by any chance log WOT time, and know roughly how many hours your getting out of the engine across those races? And a huge thank you by the way- Im looking to build a pretty extreme engine in the near future, so im gathering as much information as possible. Theres not many people ACTUALLY running them to this degree, so filtering through forum hear-say is difficult.

[@dark_canada]

is the car dry sump?

[@lohmannracing]

Hey wart ihr als Gaststätten nur zum testen dort? Muss man nicht originales Armaturenbrett fahren und semi slicks? Sau geile runs.

[@VHTRacing]

Nee, wir haben doch in extreme klasse gefahren. Dann kann man mit richtige Slicks usw. fahren. Wir haben nur gegen 1000ps Autos dann gefahren, aber egal war mehr eine Test für uns mit neue Flügel und noch 7 Platz mit sehr schlechtes rund war komisch.. :D

[@lohmannracing]

@@VHTRacing danke für die Info mit der extreme Klasse. Hatte bislang nur bei Pocket Rocket geschaut. Richtig geile Runden. Bin ein Fan von deinem Auto 😋

[@ottoviljamaa9505]

Vanha takalippa kiinni saattais ajaa puhtaampaa ilmaa siiven alle? Toki käännettynä hiukan alas päin.

[@VHTRacing]

Sitä pähkäilin kun mallailin ja koska tuo siiven korkeus on sääntöjen maksimi se lippa tulis liian ylös ja lähelle. Optimi olisi sellainen ohjain mikä pyöristäisi tuota katon kulmaa niin, että virtaus kääntyisi mahdollisimman paljon alas eikä irtoaisi tuosta katon reunasta heti.

[@royhoegen262]

I hope I get to see your machine in real life someday. ps how much whp does he have now?

[@VHTRacing]

You need to come to some hillclimb in Europe next year where we are. Around 220 on the rear wheels. 🙂

[@mikkomansikka683]

On se nopee!

[@VHTRacing]

Pari puhdasta kiekkaa kun ois saanut vaan autossa oli potentiaalia kyllä.

[@nigelsmith7366]

Fantastic channel... Greetings from New Zealand.... You probably already know of his channel but if not have a look at garage 4age

[@VHTRacing]

Thanks, yes sure have seen some of the garage 4age dyno test videos.

[@valentinovalentino77]

🤟❤️

[@NiklasTuominen-h9l]

Kaunista!! Satutko Mikko olemaan maisemissa (Nürburgring) Toukokuun lopulla? Olis yks auto ajettavana..kzbin.info/www/bejne/r2bHnIR-jt2iadU

[@guenthermaurer-uc5kx]

Nur geil dein auto und du 😀😀😀😀😀😀

[@gunthermaurer5451]

Einfach super guter mann
