ya, think bridgestone, falken, yokohama have some good reasonable rubbers ba.
see ya next time.

boonyloh 04-09-2006 07:54 PM

after the track day... i think i'll stick with continental sportcontact2 reasonable wear with a lot of gripping power :ylsuper:

CoupeM 04-09-2006 08:00 PM

bridgestone tires are very expensive. Think yoko are quite alright for the rpice u pay.

It was fun....let's do it again. :) Hope to get more laps the next time round. Dunno why everytime I go out...kena red flag after 2 laps.

CoupeM 04-09-2006 08:08 PM

steph post up the pics u took leh.

boonyloh 04-09-2006 08:10 PM

haha....i think most of us had the same thing ;) however...my instructor ask me to just drive and forget about the red flag lol.... i actually had the whole track to myself for an extra lap :P except for the R3 proton track cars which in anyway i couldn't keep up even on straights and corners... don't know what were they running under those hoods

CoupeM 04-09-2006 08:22 PM

Waa...your instructor garang leh. Mine all keep emphasizing "see red flag, must pit"

boonyloh 04-09-2006 08:39 PM

CoupeM 04-09-2006 08:42 PM

I using stock suspension and have not pushed car to limit yet. I did do abit of camber adjustment with quite abit of toe-in at the rear.

boonyloh 04-09-2006 08:55 PM

Absolutely stock setting from tyres down to the camber and everything else. NOthing change from the factory defaulted setting except a whiteline swaybar and this thing works wonder to reduce body roll of our car.

Im guessin they are running those R3 modified Campro..like the one iread before..1.6litres 200hp++ engine.

wah macam B16c ..not bad R3 keep it up!

for that sg 8 got vacuum leak.nice knowing you.
same goes to all the 8's that came from sg and anywhere in malaysia ^^.Thanks for participating.

I love Boony's rims! they're the bomb..bling-bling factor 10/10
so is a black rx8 with prodrive rims..also cekapppp

but em..i was wondering..why all our 8 sound so .. "soft".
even that gReedy'ed 8 also a bit "soft",so does wood's HKS Legamax'ed car.Doesnt live up to expectation.

heck,even those Alfa 156's sound better on track,any reasonable explaination why our exhaust notes arent so good?
