Jon, the RS on Michelin Super Sports are fine. You need to change out the pilot sports that come with the car.... They are sticky but you can get them out of line in the RS for sure.... Turn 9, turn in hard, lift off hard, then jab the throttle and then play with the throttle to keep the car from spinning out totally.. You will be smiling... Turn 14, higher speed but tons of space to get silly in... Same method. Try it and be ready for a fun time... You have the car... You just need to learn to play with it....
But I heard that it's more advisable to drive in Sport when the road is wet. Forgotten the exact reason. But maybe you don't even drive her when it's raining. Don't you Too much horsepower spoils the fun for Autocross.
Diff between race and sport? Other than the faster gear change, harder suspensiOn, earlier valve opening. what's this 'bite'? Race don't bite? Why? Hmmmmmm...
Setting a good example. I wonder sometimes why some don't drive in the rain. F1 races resume even in rain so why shouldn't we take our cars in the rain? Get dirty? Well that's another story. I just try to avoid Bt Timah during rains coz sure my Scudie is glamourous and all but I know for sure she's not a frigging boat. Fresh off my iPhone via Tapatalk
Thanks mate. Unfortunately, no trackday this trip there was one yesterday but only for Malaysian Porsches bought from the agent & I don't have time to hit the mountains. The SS tyres need about 1000km to run-in. I realised that Hurry gave 4psi higher which made it nervous even in Singapore speed but reduced it to specs since. However, the car still unsettles even on the NS drive, much lesser confidence on corners & went to aligned it. We did -1.25 front & can't remember the rears, probaby told them to do -1.5, this is for street set-up & the shop only have specs for Mk1. A quick search on web seems to reveal that others do more negative for fronts than rears on slicks while anything above -2 will need shims. A little regret doing S.sports as the car seems to suit the Cups far better but it's driven in all weather so some threads are needed on the rubber.
Definitely & SWB/lighter helps a ton. There's a nice E36M3 for sale in KL if anyone's interested. Ex-Selangor Sultan but it's metallic violet with beige cabin. Slightly under RM100K.
less systems looking over your shoulder and protecting yr ass as u go from wet to sport to race and to the partial and all off modes.
I play with myself when I think of you. Mate no need shims. A lot of us were running -2.5 up front, -2 in the rear for slicks.
No mate. It's covered in a layer of dust You should get it, the driver's seat has nice tri-color stripes on the shoulder. I have no more parking & wife hates the color or wouldn't mind it. Heard it belongs to Alfred Tan now who left it with his agent here to sell.
Fong, it's not daytona violet but a very light metallic purple. Rem the Diablo 30SE purple? A lighter shade of it.
Sadly no :/ Missed it last year, have to give it a miss again cause I'll be in HK. You got the invite right? Go, have fun. And snap lots of pictures for us
Don't mate. Need shims for the stupid Lambo to do any adjustments. Car is left standard mate, anyway am now using road tires only, no slicks for the track.
