I'm so happy and I'm sooooooo tired 😀 G forces are so huge that I feel like somebody beat the hell out of me 😀
I'm 2 seconds slower than GT3 and GT3RS's, the ultimate comparison with my G87 track SUV (stock suspension, no aero)
Couple of issues:
1. No idea why but car becomes very nervous at high speeds (> 170kmh). Front end gets a bit weird, small amount of wobbling left right left right.... no idea what's causing it, but I suspect OEM bushings...
2. I can't get the power down... ended up using TC 6 that allowed me to concentrate on better lines. Anything below lvl 6 was a drift masters challenge.
3. I need better straps and seats...
4. A bit more camber at front would be good... But not sure its possible, Maxed out the camber plates
5. Rear requires more camber, OEM setup is no good anymore... tire wear shows well that a lot must be added
Brilliant day. Im only 2 seconds slower than 250k cars on track 😀 With G87, WTF 😀 😀 😀 😀
But now comes the hard part. I need to decide if I'll go that way and get myself proper coils and a rear wing and some fancy stuff from suspension secrets.
AR-1 is brilliant tire! I truly love it. |
priitserk I see a lot of negative comments from you about the G87 platform on this forum and the G87 FB group, but can't be so bad with those results!
Adding Schroth QuickFit Pro harnesses to the oem carbon buckets was a gamechanger for me.
But i'm at the same crossroads with my build, if I go to full coilovers and lose daily driveability with no edc.
