Dawdlers at roundabouts don't cause accidents. If someone ploughs into the back of them...who's fault is that exactly?
What they do do, is royally f*** up smooth traffic flow, and them along with middle lane hoggers are a massive factor in traffic congestion.
That alone deserves a kick in...
LMAO, so what should I be aiming for next?
The CTR...was one of the slowest things out there all day. If I was in my 1.6 Focus I'd have gone past him almost as quick...so no comparisaons can be drawn from this video at all!
I've only ever found torque steer to be an issue with well worn tyres, apart from that most of the time it's not an issue.
As far as brakes go, try the search as there's so many different opinions.
I've tried most and settled on Carbon Lorraines with plain Brembo HC discs + lines and a fresh...
Yup, nothing more serious than that...didn't brake or detach, just took a whack from the cone I went over so needs readjusting.
Managed to find 2nd in the pits but then that was it...so the 7 miles home was interesting at junctions and also very loud LOL
Lesson learned is...take axle stands...
No problem...should be there this year.
This time out I had Dunlop D01Js on the front, and Yoko A048s on the back. Only got experience of them and Yoko A032s as well. My favourites are the A32s, but only because I got them as 205s not 195s.
It barely moved, no idea what the driver was...
I use it when I teach/instruct IAM bods.
Was a fun day, only 25 cars in total so loads of track time.
I also had an embarrassing 'incident' at the end of the day...video of that to follow.
I use Herts Insurance Consultants (www.hertsinsurance.com) and they cover me with Highway I think.
For an additional premium (about £100 for me) you get unlimited trackday cover with only a £500 excess if you can prove you've been on track before, £1,000 if it's your first outing.
Must be...
Rentech Mike has serviced my car every 6k miles from new, that's 18 times now. No one else has so much as touched it.
Trustworthy, caring, reliable, honest and great VFM.
The Renault service experience doesn't get any better IMO.
Tuistion first, then tyres, then brakes. That is all you need to do. In that order.
I'd agree with that...I get around 3 seconds (although there's more to be had) around Combe and Goodwood.
Wrong! My Cup has always been on standard springs/dampers. Great fun
