    The only worse scenario is, when Mycroft’s mother register at Fchat and admits, that she is ashamed of her child also… Lol

    Does his YouTube account have any lap videos of a 918?

    As I said, he hasn't firmly stated anywhere how many laps of any track the 918 can do in HL mode, only that the P1 GTR lasts twice as long as the FXX K and that the 918 lasts longer in EV Mode. If he ever does bring information about how long the 918 lasts in HL Mode then it will be interesting.

    The straights are actually longer and faster on COTA and begin with a slow kink. At Sebring, there is a long, steady radius bend before each straight. There is ****-loads of part throttle time at Sebring too, you only have to look at the lap video.

    There.

    Sebring - 80s/133s braking or part throttle.

    COTA - 77s/137s braking or part throttle.

    Any more excuses?:D

    Can you dig your grave any deeper? haha

    A McLaren factory GT driver already told you to shut it with your nonsense.

    Sebring and COTA is 2 different style of track, you simply cannot compare the 2 even when they have similar lap times. One is a flat flat track the other one has quite a bit of elevation changes.

    And what's with your obsession with youtube videos?

    918 is quickest/most cutting edge. P1 is most gharly/fastest. Laferrari is best integration of hybrid in that it feels natural. Everything else is subjective. Lieven, myocrap....let. It. Die! I can't even read your posts anymore and you annoy me.

    He's aiming to come out on the other side of the planet by the looks of it. Let's hope he ends up in a place without access to youtube, otherwise he will probably just take two steps forward and start digging his way back again.

    There's the thing you glossed over and forgot to mention. He isn't entirely sure himself because he doesn't track the 918, because, "the weight is a huge handicap.":D

    Sure I can compare them very easily.:D

    Sebring - 80s/133s braking or part throttle.

    Very clever engine. Power is produced over 270deg of a cycle as opposed to 90deg with 4-stroke.

    You really haven't quite mastered the art of ignoring someone yet have you?

    And you are putting words in his mouth. He hasn't tracked the 918 yet, so he can't comment. But you in your infinite wisdom decided to answer for him anyway.

    Again, you are still full of he said/she said, and have zero first hand experiences.

    You maybe watching youtube videos, but even those only gives you partial information, you never had the full picture ever. Which also means nothing you say will have any creditability.

    Hell even if you admit in a public forum that you are an idiot, no one would believe you anyway.

    918 (non WP) beat Veyron (not SS unfortunately) in a drag race in the last episode of Grand Tour. Watching it now. Hammond drove the 918. It was an interesting race as well. 918 inked a slight lead early and just kept it/slightly gained as the race went on.

    Also, Hammond did not engage hot laps mode for didn't make any mention of it. Not sure how much of a difference that makes for a 918 in a half mile drag race.

    Why? To prove you are wrong again? That game is not even challenging anymore, everyone knows you are wrong and desperate.

    Even in that post he still haven't said he had tracked the 918. Which means he does not have first hand comment on the car at the track. I said as much.

    And whatever he says about cars is still just his opinion. Lewis Hamilton may like a car and I drive it and don't. It doesn't freaking matter! Lieven won't be able to ever afford a 570s much less a P1 unless he channels all this time and energy into something productive so it's a beyond useless argument. Whoopsy clearly likes his 918, he does track it, it clearly handles itself very well at a track. No idea why West would say he has no desire to track it but that's his choice. It literally makes zero difference to the argument and doesn't matter at all. He's just a guy with an opinion. Just like Whoopsy. And ultimately, just like Lieven. Only one of the three though is incredibly annoying and childish in their arguing, however.

    :D No actually I said that.

    You were keen to point out his road driving experience suggested the 918's EV lasted longer, except twisting it to make it sound like it pertained to on-track HL Mode. I simply pointed out that the comments didn't pertain to HL Mode on-track.

    I said so here:

    'Weight handicap.' One thing doing a press hot lap, but doing multiple lap sessions on a track day is something entirely different.


    Childish for simple providing facts and data? It's not like I've made anything up... because that would just be despicable right?;)

    And that's the initial perception of basically everyone. He still hasn't tracked it to actually find out. So do't put words in his mouth.



    Hmm, he did't name names, but you admit you are the childish one? Shocking.

    I don't believe you either, please provide youtube proof!

    Ever wonder why no matter how elaborate and complicated and detailed your posts are, no one on the internet ever believed you? On any sites?

    Most people would have realized the answer by now. You have zero creditability. Maybe you think you do, but that's just your imagination.

    But please continue, a internet site without you is boring, you provide the entertainment for the rest of us.

    I disagree - mycroft is boring. He uses the same arguments over and over. He says that the 918 runs down its batteries after one lap at Laguna Seca time and time again. Even though he has probably never seen a 918 and has been proven demonstrably false often, he will use the same bs.

    He points to one data point, and will ignore the fact that the 918 set the lap record at the N-ring over 20km lap, which is 5 times as long as laguna. Clearly the car did not lose its battery juice! But for whatever reason, he picks and chooses random data, while ignoring other and makes unsupportable claims based on the flimsiest of info. He claims to be an engineer - engineers I know look at all the data, not just youtube videos! Luckily, I don't have listen to his bs directly.
