Footage of my car @ Midvale Speed Dome Superkhana
2 Attachment(s)
Went pretty well considering this was my first track day.
Most of the course was made up of constant left-hand turns. I wanted to push the car harder but started to get under-steer. Looked at my driver's side front tyre and the outer edge got pretty chewed. Assuming I need the camber adjusted? Keen to hear from any race enthusiasts on ways to help correct this. I could've really done with a second camera on the speedo/tacho as the course was that tight I didn't even have time to check it, was going purely by the sound of the revs. I was in the morning session totalling 29 cars and was expecting to come in the last 5 (considering all the better classed cars). To my surprise I came 12th! :) http://www.classicrally.com.au/JCD_superkhana.htm Daz Attachment 240139 Attachment 240140 http://youtu.be/aKY7n-EsqnQ?hd=1 http://youtu.be/Y2b-Iumf6XI?hd=1 |
Cool pics and video.

Looks like fun. Nice vid thank you

Tearing up that tire is from understeer. Sway bars can really help with that. They can let you adjust under to oversteer. If you can stiffen up the rear roll, it will help the rear come around (be careful) and let the rear tires help turn.
Vid was cool. |
Nice. Are you running 20" wheels?
|

Cheers guys.

The wider tyres on the rear could be contributing to the understeer too..? |
looks good!
|
Yeah, the staggered tire sizes/wheels aren't doing much to help with the understeer.
|
Looks good. The wheels look huge. I thought they were 20's as well.

I think it's the wide angle camera lens that's making the wheels look bigger. Just measured in on my screen and the width of the wheel is greater than the height.

If it's the little car I'm thinkin of it was da bomb! Prob the most impressive car to watch on the day. Pretty sure it had a motorbike engine in it. Will see if I can find some pics / footage to confirm.
