My DC5 @ Brands Hatch 15/02/16 (Pics & Vid)

[adamlstr]

What started off as snow/ice broke into cold/dry in the afternoon, it was a good day. I went up with a few mates, in their 530, Cayman, and EP3.
There was a new Clio Cup car there, seemed decent - the gearbox sounded rapid!
I hadn't done Paddock before, what a corner that is. I was wary that the Indy circuit was a bit short, but it suited my (comparative) lack of power quite well. I had it nicely hooked up by the end of the day.

I didn't film many sessions, none at all in the morning actually. They would've largely been slow and slidey!

That sounds awesome!!! Love how it stays in the vtec zone (i assume) through 3rd-4th.

Thanks

It remains 'in vtec' through all gears so long as you shift up at over 8krpm. I'm shortshifting and staying in high gears to alleviate wheel spin in some areas though. Otherwise, I'd stay 'on cam'.

Sounds and looks immense! That Teg M roar.
Any rubbing? Looks close.

Nah, I hate tyre rub, cheapens the whole car. No scrubbing here Squire.

If anything, my ride height now is higher on the Bilsteins than it was on shocks/eibachs.

Same, when my 15 scrubbed on full lock it annoying the s**t out of me.

Sounds amazing though mate. I need a Teg M.

Yeah they're a decent piece of kit, I'd almost had enough of the noise by the end of the day though; my exhaust is horrendous when it's piping hot.

The baffles on my Kaki n1 have given up, or started to. I would need my silencer in if I was going anywhere near a track.
I had the hairs from the box all up the back of my car over the weekend. 😂

It's literally SO loud.

I'd really love an RM-01A, but that's 600 odd quid. Lol @ the hairs!

love this car

Cheers, me too!
