    MASTER THREAD: Comprehensive Road-Course Modification Guide — Optimizing the 3 for the track

    Is that really the best steering technique? I’ve always shifted my hand position in Autocross & was never taught not to. Or just never taught. I want to try & keep a solid grip but I don’t like having arms crossover (in theory anyway)

    MASTER THREAD: Comprehensive Road-Course Modification Guide — Optimizing the 3 for the track

    @subieworx thats pretty awesome! I’m super uncomfortable on braking points and entry speeds on the track. It’s my second time, (first was 2020 Corsa) I have way more hill climb driving time!! Also first time trying the Nexen 315s and they definitely did not like the cold. After the wet laps in...

    You just need to ‘dance’ on the throttle if you get any reduction. But ya, you can’t feather as you say.

    MASTER THREAD: Comprehensive Road-Course Modification Guide — Optimizing the 3 for the track

    I did a 1:42.55 should be running 1:39 probably on the nexen I have I think. It hailed the night before and our Saturday evening practice was canceled. Hella slippery in the AM session! I did. 1:50. It was my Second track session & only really did 3 wet & 2 dryer laps. Drive more conservative...

    Not related but a Plaid caught his brake ducts hoses on fire this weekend at laguna seca 315 Nexen. Slippery on cold wet track! Felt pretty good when they warmed up a little. I placed 17/63 in Optima challenge 👌7th in both speedstop and Autocross. I’ve got some brake ducts and hoses but am...

    315/30. I ran them in a wet Autocross on Sunday. Pretty fast even in rain surprisingly! Saturday I borrowed a ‘22 STI & got to time too! I haven’t driven a stick in sooo long! Got my S in ‘12& have been left foot braking since. First corner I hit clutch instead of brakes. Shocked I ended in...

    You’re correct. I totally missed the ‘congested’ part in our email. Thought it was a slightly different charge, congested or not. Oops, nothing new…We’ve been advised to only charge to 80%.

    Caltrans fleet Tesla & maybe other state or ‘fleet’ teslas(not sure there. Why I said ‘ours’) There is no such thing as free supercharging. This is independent of SC utilization% and always 1$/min over 90% for our vehicles

    Supercharger - Fort Bragg, CA (LIVE 21 May 2021, 12 stalls)

    There is a shell charger in south leggett and one in Miranda + chargepoint at the Benbow inn. I really like Branscomb road if you’re into windy roads& you can do the loop up 1 to the parks etc, down 101 to Laytonville SC then over to the coast near union landing 👌

    In addition to others using & paying for Tesla chargers, our fleet vehicles have a newer charge of 1$ per minute when charging over 90%. Not huge but it all adds up 🤑

    18”X11” +25 with 315 Nfera5 . 15mm spacers on hypergrams seems to fit. I was gonna add 1/4 panels before driving but test fit one and it had plenty of inside clearance. Outside almost seemed like it could work as is🤔 18”X11” +40 w/315 is great in the rear

    Tuesday…& squeeze up or down? Monday may be up big & Tuesday down even more. For those max pain charts. Each option shown has a buy and sell associated with the volumes, correct? Only the early OI post shows what exactly happened the day before. Maybe someone can correct this if not the case

    I reported that one & account. Seen crap from that one too much with garbage like that. The stuff that you tube bans but allows this trash !? Like Farcebook
