That race shouldn't even be close, no disrespect to the 370Z. The driver of the Cayman needs a driver mod, driver of the Z is just a better driver, the GT4 is the better track car but needs a better driver.
@@D249636 Superspeed 18x10.5 +22 all around and a spacer that pushes it flush. Nankang AR-1 275/35/18. Swift lowering springs. No suspension mods so max -2 front and -4 rear camber. Hair of toe in rear
If you watched the other videos you'll see the car over heats easily, compounded by redline shifts. I'm not doing time attack don't need to wring it out every gear
Happens to the best of us, but I had something similar happen with an older 325i where they thought they could out-corner me and almost did a 360 3 times before letting us by in the next passing zone. Everyone wants to get home safe, don’t be the hero at your local lapping day!
I also track mine but still new to it - when the rear kicks out like that I've always been told for fwd we straighten the wheel and then gas it. I saw you corrected the oversteer via countersteer - any tips on what to do? I tend to trail brake a ton, but it has not yet kicked out the rear on me yet
There's no single rule to recover, you will learn with experience. When it snaps that fast and you don't counter steer and just rely on throttle, I would say most of the time you would spin out. Your hand speed is what determines how often you spin out, counter steering is very important no matter the drivetrain. When the slip angle is low,I have done throttle mash to pull it through, but not when it snap oversteers like that. Trail braking is fun, depending on your car/setup you may never get oversteer
@@gilz.8612 doubt it. Not a lot of changes other than vented hood. Those can help delay it, not eliminate it. The turbo is at the front right behind the radiator
So was he just simply still coming in to fast for those downhill turns? It really seemed to have a lack of back end grip, or was he just not back on the throttle fast enough when he braked and turned? Either way, the saves were great, a mix of luck and skill in making sure he didn't hit the wall.
I do Own an ap1, b14 bilstein coilovers and Bridgestone so2 tyres...i ve lost twice Time control, one was really stupid , under wet pushing at 160 kmh spines the car( only body work damage, no mechanic damage or chassis damages)...the second also on wet road at 30kmh, throttle after a tight curve....I ve lost my confidence in me while driving and in the car....almost ready to sell it....77.000 km, German model , I live in France ...:( so sad for that fu....car....wonderful car
Im confused he seems to be pulling on you ? Never herd this term befor.tracks are to risky with no insurance for track racing .so im just use to asshole road rules. Is it a brake tap to open for a pass ?
definitely masks a lot of driver induced errors (high slip angle in the wet, massive steering inputs, balky gear changes and general upsetting of the balance of the car). really useful video though, thank you much!
