What an idiot!!!

Why is it always supercars and exotic muscle cars that have moron owners attempting to do burnouts / drifting in public places... They ALWAYS seem to spin out and crash. Just like this example. What a complete and utter tool, I hope he pays for all medical and or worst expenses to those he hit.

"From the video, it looks to us that as the CCX broke the rear tires loose and he immediately lifted off the gas and slammed the brakes, which is more often than not, the worst thing you can do in that situation. Perhaps, had he more experience and steered into the slide and stayed on the gas, this could all have been avoided." There you go boys, if in doubt, keep that sucker on the gas and powerslide your way to safety!

Well besides Koenenenccigigig CCXs, theres countless videos of lambo / ferrari / corvette morons who manage to spin them out in even the most normal situations with the slightest pump of the pedal. They should be told these cars are really tail happy when they buy them

There should be laws against rich idiots buying cars they don't know how to drive.

Why restrict it to rich people in expensive cars? Plenty of people lose control of normal cars when doing something stupid, they just aren't doing with big crowd around recording it. But there are plenty of instances where there is someone recording it. YouTube has plenty of videos of people losing it.

I'm sure most people on this forum (and every other forum) wouldn't be able to 'drive' a supercar or hypercar without losing it. Again, I make my point: if someone as skilled as Ben Collins (aka the stig) spun out a CCX, then an average driver (and the average SAUer - including me) would be even more likely to spin out.

      I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.

      Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!

      I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)

      I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.
