Gits ... just spotted this thresd andcwas trawling it before posting that .... knew there would be someone .... Fwiw putting my premix 2 stroke race fuel into my 5 turbo eventually gummed up and killed the fuel pump ... but I ussd to love the week after a race meeting :)

Depends how things start .... look at the 30 to 50 times or the 40 to 70 .... then things get mixed up ...

It wasn't a look at me post it was more to prove that when people say i nailed a 911 in my clio ,or a tdi kept up with me , its a completely meaningless on most accounts .... mid range punch on a good tdi will catch a clio napping , and a really torquey one will do more so .... i did this the...

I lapped a 172 cup in leon tdi at snetterton ... deduce what you will And it was only a 130 se ... on a set of 18's .... and a stunned passenger . And on a wet comb I laped 3 elises and passed a spinning gt3 in a leon 150 fr .... All of which are utterly true

dunno , they are good , used to be the bain of my life when i was running the elise , however the vag tdi's have nothing on the 2.0 d cylinder volvo lump i am now driving , it makes a vag tdi feel like a slug !!

very much so , and again its very circuit dependant, ....... never asked enough from Me Colburn senior or Ed peed to find exactly what they get up to to make quali work so well. ​been a while since i went to a cup round and after a walk through the awning i spent most in hospitality LOL

i would suggest taking a bit of negative camber off the rear try half a degree at a time ..... to be fair cup racers run some weird settings for qualifying , but only for qualifying but are very tail happy as the rears take a while to come on ​

What does the car do now ? ... all this chuck this on do that is ok if you understand what you have , what your driving style is , how accomplished you are behind the wheel etc . You may find the rear more lively and help turn in initially but there would be a mid corner trade off how much...

If your running camber bolts then this all sounds weird ... and yes a standard 1*2 would always benifit an lsd but you have to change how you drive ..... seriously 3 degrees on the rear sounds odd and would make it turn in better as the contact patch on the rear at turn in would be very small...

With negligable on the front it would behave weirdly

How did you deduce that was a good setup .... sounds undrivable and without wishing to sound patronising your understanding of things is way off . Wheelspin out of tight corners will be down to no lsd and a very strange setup ...... in fact it must be bloody awful .a standard car would handle...

Your problem won't always be turn in related , the most comon mistake for people in FWD on track is not unwinding lock as they apply power , if you hand onto the lock to long when going to full throttle it will wash out badly

Thats why setups that do certain things become paddock secrets ... as theory and reality rarely match

your completely correct and i was thinking using top mount adjusters as thats how i have always done it , ever noticed the rake on a R5 cup car ?

​also altering toe and camber can (i did say can) have an effect on castor and that will alter turn in and mid corner again .

the biggest single problem with people trying to set things up is actually understanding what's happening , and then even harder why.

For anyone who wants to start to understand the science , and i mean start as the reality is that what should work on paper is not what works in reality all the time order and read http://www.amazon.co.uk/Competition-Car-Suspension-Practical-Handbook/dp/1844253287/ref=dp_ob_title_bk and...

Re: Whos been a naughty boy/girl? Id be going legal on them if they are an official groupvas they do sound as there are stewards .... get a letter from your lawyer in early to the group and to facebook

Re: Whos been a naughty boy/girl? Just to clarify my comments re tommy taking legal advice was to dovwith what was being said about him on facebook . Serious allegations which need action taking by his lawyer if completely false and made up Thats all

Re: Whos been a naughty boy/girl? In seriousness (and if you have any legal cover more the better) take some legal advice over this as its using facebook to muddy your name . If what you say is true and I have been involved in the legsl aspects of threats and allegations then get advice and...
