i take it u used circuet semi slicks? do u think the side walls lowered your times or does any extra grip at these power levels a good thing. also any future plans for the car?

[doriae86]

I thought they would grip more, but I wasn’t keen on warming the tyres by doing a burnout before each run so the grip was actually pretty crap

My 60 foot times were actually worse than most of the fwd guys were getting with street tyres, so I would say they prob made me a bit slower if anything.

Want to get a power fc, lightened flywheel and better clutch. For handling I want a rear strut brace and maybe some additional underbody bracing.

Also chasing some nice jap wheels in 16 inch, prob like ssr type C or te37. Just depends what pops up when im looking.

bks i hope those are not threats.......

Doubt they are even close to threats. Far from it.

That's because he's better than that and you are just not worth it.

Edited April 23, 2009 by spillige

[doriae86]

yeah semi slicks, no point having them if i dont use them.

brakes are good, even the instructor commented that the felt solid

[jaderd]

its cheaper - not so much demand for track :)

as far as vision is concerned, its not too bad, but harder to constantly hit your braking markers - because you cant see them.

good fun regardless - going again next month, will have my rear strut bar installed so be interested to see if i can improve my lap times a little.

def need lsd though :/

[doriae86]

new sub woofer support bar installed.

bass is heaps clearer now

[JSTCHLN]

why do you have your sub on one side of the car?

[doriae86]

im pretty fat, so i like to distribute the weight evenly accross the car :)

[spillige]

is that a cusco bar?

[doriae86]
