Can you go and just watch? :smile:

[ddongbap]

I think you can.

[largeorangefont]

Yes you can go and just watch.

Was that you in the yaris? It looked pretty good out there, I saw him spin once.

I was in my RX7.

[ddongbap]

YEA THAT WAS ME. DUDE U WERE THERE?!!?!?!

[ddongbap]

Which one? FD or FC?

[ddongbap]

I tried to slide the tail slightly, by turning hard. I was trying to get the car pointed RIGHT at the yellow entry burm thing. I was using my 350mm steering wheel, and I didn't flick it in counter fast enough. I was sorta used to the 300mm one I was using most of the day. So the rear end said, NOT ENOUGH, and I ate laterals.

I think I attempted that slide 10+ times, but I've only landed it twice.

Did you also happen to catch my crazy oversteer? I point passed my friend in his red S2k. Then I got fixated on his butt, so I took his line, and his speed on the skidpad corner. The rear end was having none of that.

Yea I heard it then looked up and saw you sliding. You need some rear tires with tread on them :)

Do you have that 23mm sway bar on your car? If so how do you like it?

Yep =T

I'm running those Azenis as long I can.

And I like the sway. The rear lets you know its not lame. I'm going to try to put some toe in the rear using some shims for the next event.

Yes some camber and toe in the rear will help. Seeing yours out there made me want to bring mine out.

It probably isn't anything close to a RX tho.

[ddongbap]

So I didn't have timing, but based on my video, I pulled a 1:47 on the second heat of the day. The camera ran out of batteries right after.

[largeorangefont]

I ran a 1:34.4

[ddongbap]

Man, i'm slow.

Most of the track was pulling way faster times than me.
