Hi TomOriginally Posted by tom reid
Hope you are well mate ,its a case of me actually driving it properly i dont need to tell you but Andy is a genious ,the car is a pleasure to drive .I will get to take you out in it 1 day hopefully round Brands as i know my way round there .You need to get those 1800,s in to see what they are like as i am going to need a few more gee,gees if im going to beat the pug and wrc escort
There's no fcuking around in that environment I can see...
The cornering speeds are very, very good.
You need a faster rack & to set that steering wheel straight; your hands are all over the place.
Do you know what your camber & castor values are atm?
With a little bit of refinement imo you could have an extremely competitive car.
The camber and castor has all been set as have the corner weights ,its got a quaife quick rack so dont know if you can get a different ratio but feels ok incar and yes i must straighten the wheel ,but just seem to forget when checking car over ,as for being competitive i am less than 1/2 second off the all time DMN class record held by a very good semi pro driver ,i am still on old front tyres so hope to be very close to the lap record soon
How many degrees of positive castor are you running may I ask? Are the track rod ends standard going into the knuckle from the top?
Larger wheels could be the answer too / instead, because the less you have to move hands the easier it will be.
I don't think Quaife list a higher ratio, but I bet they could make one should it ever come to that; [last on the list imo].
Not wanting to come across conceited but I'm fairly confident I could get round brands at a quick pace without taking my hands off 10 to 2.
I think that my seating position is something to do with hands on wheels ,have you ever tried 10 inch hot slicks !seating position and pedal position is high on the list of things to do in the winter
