Snowman Posted 7November, 2016 Report Share Posted 7November, 2016 As promised in the GT3 vs GT4 thread - here's a hot lap from today without traffic. Car is on Pirelli Trofeo R road tyres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hugh Posted 7November, 2016 Report Share Posted 7November, 2016 Nice work. Almost make it look too easy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted 7November, 2016 Author Report Share Posted 7November, 2016 It's honestly faster than I thought it would be. I'd previously guessed if I put a perfect lap together it would net a low 1.46, but to do a mid 45 and still not be perfect was a surprise. I literally only did 2 fast laps for the whole day - I have no doubt I can go quicker this weekend.Awesome little cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spiller Posted 7November, 2016 Report Share Posted 7November, 2016 Nice driving. Looks like it moves around a little in the braking zones...have you got a track alignment on it or factory? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted 7November, 2016 Author Report Share Posted 7November, 2016 It has a track alignment. I've already thrown 4mm of rear toe at it to try and calm it down under brakes - but it's just the nature of the beast. The GT4 CS race cars run 6mm toe for this reason.But I'm getting used to it now though so it doesn't really bother me too much. I used to want to kill me with the factory alignment - now it just dances a little which is ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A little bit of movement under braking is always good, keeps us on our toes, which is how a GT car is supposed to be EDIT: do these have an electronic or mechanical diff?

LeeM Posted 7November, 2016 Report Share Posted 7November, 2016 Nice lines mate! Great job on a 45. 43's are in ya ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJM Posted 7November, 2016 Report Share Posted 7November, 2016 Wow that's impressive for essentially a standard road car. Just shows how good those things are out of the box.m Seems to have plenty of grip through Stoner and hay shed, are you flat or just a tiny lift? Just seems so smooth, nicely done.

LeeM Posted 7November, 2016 Report Share Posted 7November, 2016 Seems to have plenty of grip through Stoner and hay shed, are you flat or just a tiny lift? I thought the same. Ballsy to be flat through Stoner! That always scared the crap out of me on the superbike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted 7November, 2016 Author Report Share Posted 7November, 2016 I'm flat in my mind - but in reality I think there are still some small partial coward lifts.I'll get to run them both flat eventually - the car is good for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJM Posted 7November, 2016 Report Share Posted 7November, 2016 1:43 has to be the target! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted 7November, 2016 Author Report Share Posted 7November, 2016 ^^ Not on road tyres. lolI'm not even sure a 1.44 is possible. Still - before today I wouldn't have thought a 1.45 was.But I'm going to try out some Hooisers R7 "slicks" this weekend - so 43's are on the cards with those.

I assume you're at the PIARC sprint this weekend? Shame I can't get there, I'd love to chase you around the track and follow your lines, turn 2 is my nemesis. I've done 1:45.8 in the RX7 on A050s but I have a sneaky set of slicks that I havent been game to try.....yet. I like hunting Exoticars.....
