back to dreaming about the Glen
The S's, lola. What I'm curious about, having a lowered coil car, is which setup you'd go back to after approaching the ~90-100mph off-camber left, before the gentle right onto the back straight. The car's weight balance excels, here, and it's pretty much all guts. With coil, the transition is a ginger, predictable weight shift up past 100mph, reaching 120+mph. Having owned air, but not early P85D air, I had no regrets. I think the feedback of oil/gas shocks is better, and this is the pudding.
The turns I'm talking about earlier are the end of the front straight (the "90"), and the "heel of the boot". Good places to consider trail braking, which leads to the two main criticisms. Tesla still chimes you for hitting the brake and throttle together (not that big a deal), and the power cut if you attempt to point the car (triggering a wheel sensor). What people need to expect is a ~300hp / 4,800lb car, for most of their track time. Full power goes away pretty quick. I was expecting the ~225kw limit, having seen the Nurbergring videos. That said, its still a fun car and the limiters are less of a problem, or noticed, when you've already lost power anyway. The steering wheel "boost", at 10-15 degrees before full straight, is then more of just a tap. On the street, its a shove.
Imagine, we were on fresh pavement the week after Nascar left. No more cement. It was so fresh, that when one of the 911's blew an oil hose they gave up on the kitty litter and went straight to detergent and water. They scrubbed it!
