We can talk all day about numbers and sub-minute laps around Tsukuba. But actually seeing how fast a fast lap looks like from the driver’s seat really puts things into perspective. This is Hiro behind the wheel of his Exceed Moat 07B S14 at Tsukuba managing a 58″540 lap and hitting a top speed of 212 km/h on the back straight. Check out the cool Racepack IQ3 data logger display, I’m pretty sure I saw 1.7 G in one of the corners!

These guys are my heros!
Am I reading the speed correctly?
Does he hit 212mph at one point?!?
No, no way its gotta be Kilometers. Right? in either case, WOW!
No thats Kilometers or KPH.
nah, its in KM/H. I really like that data logger display, looks like the boost controller allows more boost above third gear
Wow, really fast...anyone knows what's the fastest RWD around Tsukuba? An FD? S15?
IIRC its either the Revolution FD or the Pan Speed FD. I think both are in the 55 second range.
The Scorch S15 will run consistant 56's around tsukuba and I think it might of dipped into the 55's so its up there with the two FD's.
AFAIK the Exceed moat cars are the two fastest S14's though.

Check out the videos on this guys blog, he has footage of wheel to wheel racing with the Exceed moat brothers.
Who say's S14's can't dance?
Those lap times are insane!
I hate to come across as a hater, but that car has more in it than the driver shows. With a bit more trail-braking, and following the rule of "if you are on the throttle before the apex, you entered too slow", he could have been a little quicker. A few tenths here and a few tenths there... but it all adds up. Put a pro in the car and it'd drop about a second, I bet.
ah nice i want a haltech with a racepack dash
