@ruk2023-- 5 лет назад

There is a legit and related question though and that is are these small incremental lap time savings due to the changes to the car or Alex getting more used to it on this track? The tyres and brakes will obviously make a difference but with these things...?

A more consistent driver would show improvements done to the car a lot better. But it's still fun to see Alex do it.

@Orvieta 5 лет назад

"where the tyre are the limiting factor" Told you guys when you put on Chinese (Taiwanese) B grade tyres where the M3 contendor had Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S installed... The tyres were by far the best improvement you guys have made but you insisted on not using the same ones as your contendor, still inexplicable choice to me. All the rest made only marginal gains and actually could be explained by learning the track and car better.

@Multi5611 5 лет назад

Orvieta much agreed, the term “ditch finder” has always followed the name Nankang whenever someone’s mentioned it in my experience

@michaelpetricca7151 5 лет назад

Something like a dunlop direzza z3, bridgestone re71r, or bf Goodrich rival s would give much more grip not to mention feedback which would in turn help the driver utilize all of the tyres grip. Dont understand why they cheaped out on pretty much the most important item for improvement of laptimes.

@KXP70 5 лет назад

All of you are highly misinformed. The Nangkang NS2R is a very capable tyre and should have the edge against the super sports in dry performance. Jonathan (Mr Tyre Reviews) isn't an idiot and wouldn't have recommended them for this build if they were shit.

@KXP70 5 лет назад

@@michaelpetricca7151 I don't think any of the tyres you listed are widely available (or available at all) in the UK.

Fair enough if they're not available but you're telling me that a nankang was the best available street legal tyre? I find that incredibly hard to believe.

@tomtom255 5 лет назад

This type of series is a lot of fun to watch, something to keep in mind though is that this is a relatively short track and the improvements made might not seem like much because the track is so small. On a larger and longer track the improvements and difference in lap times would be much more drastic. Keep up the good work 👍

Geo: fr 3.5 neg 0.05 toe out each side , rear 2.2 neg 0.10 toe in each side . Retry the test . By the looks car still wants to push the front due to Mcpherson type of suspension pushing the hub to positive camber under loads , lack of lsd doesnt help either . By the looks the way the wheels sit , its very mild setup , and you aint having quick times with that.

@stephenhawkingMLG 5 лет назад

You’re loosing a lot of time by going over the curbs in some of the corners. Your wheels lift off a bunch coming off of them and you loose grip and you’re not able to accelerate as quickly. EDIT: The liftoff and loss of grip is also what is causing you to go wide in a lot of the corners and go into the grass.
