Pete- I contend that the headroom for improvement is far higher in the F1 than in the conventional shifter. New skills learned such as left...
Pete- 2 items. 1. I know a bunch of drivers who can kick my ass... so that's not an issue. Case in point- Jason Saini can also go far...
Gary- I am on this list, albeit somewhat slower... Trust me, with only 4 laps that day (over two years ago), I was able to go 1.46.xx and if I...
Gary- I'm sure your car is capable of going quite a bit quicker, probably in the 1.3x.xx area. 1.43.xx is what a good driver in a stock...
In your example I think there are too many variables the make that assumption. Better driver vs. lesser driver... what are their strengths,...
John- It is precisely for that reason (the "few milliseconds") that I bought the F1, and it is meaningful to me and also to many others who...
Take it to PMs if you want to discuss further. This is not the topic at hand. For what it's worth I think you have misconceptions on what "fast"...
I don't know... I tried to keep on topic by asking W00dEar to show everyone his shifting prowess since that is the basis for his 6 speed purchase...
See my user name... look at my name and location. If you are into Nissans and are based in the States you may have heard of me. Hint- it's...
That is a wholly different topic. But... I will say that the driving dynamics of a Porsche rear engined car are not my favorite. If they were...
Another typically close minded statement. Think outside the box for a change. What's wrong with that? While BMW was off programming all...
James- No worries. My Jag is a 1966 E with a 4 speed manual so I have an inkling what era you're talking about. At least the electronics in...
Or you could learn to left foot brake, a skill all racers who use modern machinery should be proficient in.
James- The key to driving the F1 trans well is understanding what your inputs are telling the shift computer. If you are steady with the...
Are you talking about people who drive the F1 system regularly, or just the corner boys that you hang out with? Put your "experience" in some...
That's okay. You can research that on your own time. No. Not possible. They are clearly marked. They are also in plain sight. They are...
Yes! It's not that difficult a concept to grasp. SMGII is inconsistent by nature- the paddle placements on the wheel, blipping/no blipping...
Yes, that's why the SMGII has had reports of over-reving whereas the F1 has not. Yep, I see it's really superior. Keep digging away... No....
Seats are OMP ARS. Not an issue. Unlike the M3 I don't need access to the back seats. Yes, I guess so, in the same vein that they expect...
Interesting thread. I don't use water wetter... and I use Redline products religiously. One thing really bugs me about ww- if the coolant...
