Kaakao posted:I was driving the black 996 turbo, only got few laps on Wednesday thanks to some issues, work and the snow. First time driving the ring while it is snowing, didn't slow down too much Ah cool man! British car? Yeah it was a real shame but that's how it goes! You getting to the next one too?

Kaakao posted:Finnish plates, the car is in Germany now but we will most likely be back in Finland by June so DN8 will most likely be passed. That's a shame man. We had a lot of fun in spite of the weather anyway. Are you in this anywhere? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nk1uC5ujex4

Can anyone recommend me a new helmet? I'd like something open face that looks really nice. Those Ruby things are amazing but probably a bit pricey.

track day bro! posted:Did you manage to do anything this year? I went back to brands hatch last monday, on a supposedly dry day. Somehow the track retains water, but all the surrounding roads were bone dry. I just did a few blyton days ftl. I have a ring trip booked for september but I'm seriously considering DN in july too. I'm currently spending over $9000 to make my car be more better so prob won't do much early this year. Let me know what you go to though

track day bro! posted:Nice blyton is pretty close to you isnt it? I dunno what i'm doing yet this year but I realy need to go to the ring, is it a trackday in september or just a touristwhatsit? My cars pretty much just been sitting around since december anyway and yeah i've been buying up over 9000 parts also. It's fine. I'm not enjoying winter driving on these RSRs tbh so just pootling about. Blyton isn't far really no. I want to do DN in July but nobody seems up for it because £1200. September is tourist driving cause my mate wants to go there for his stag. I'll probably do about 10 laps then drink 9000 beers ftw. What parts did you buy? I hope it was getting those friggin kewl wheels refurbed!!!!!

You're not gonna hit any speed limits lol. No helmet is fine. Slow cars fine and fun coz not as much peril. I got to lap the ring a few times with my job.

A guy at work has just given me this. Anyone used one before?  Heading out to the ring in the morning and it'd be awesome if I can figure it out I think

What dashes are y'all using!!! I don't wanna buy one that doesn't have awesome warnings and stuff and isn't visible in the sun etc etc. Minefield! I have a FIA spec cage for the lsm3 on the way and I'm thinking I may as well just go the whole hog at this point tbh. Anyone built their own splitter? That's my winter project to balance out the rear I've bought

BlackMK4 posted:Has anyone here moved from tracking motorcycles to cars and not regret it in some ways? I've ridden about 40 trackdays in the last few years but never been to the track in a car. Giving it up seems difficult and I don't really know how a car really compares. You can go around corners faster and it's insanely fun 😈

Yeah. One of my pals has just put a inconel exhaust on his 991 GT3 and is figuring out how to attach silencers. Must be absolutely heart breaking drilling into a $10k exhaust haha.

Gigi Galli posted:If you find your PS reservoir boiling over, just get a flush and use a higher temp fluid. Mine only ever starting boiling when I did autocross as opposed to proper track days, but I've done a few since with the higher temp RedLine stuff and it hasn't happened since. Just don't do autocross imo.

My tyre thoughts are direzza 03Gs and Nanking AR1s. My mates in the uk m3 series run either and love them and all the schirmer boys swear by direzzas.

I like my pro 2000s but everyone at track days seems to have spgs. I guess because more expensive = better

I’d rather slide around an industrial estate in the middle of the night than do auto cross I think. I spoke to a few yanks when I was at the ring who were making it sound as if it was equivalent to running an lmp1 car in lm24 of something and it pissed me off so much I’ve decided it’s fhe CrossFit of cars. I’m off to the ring in just over a week and I am absolutely hype. I also think I may have found the biggest bargain in fia seats and will tell you guys about them when I fit them this weekend.

 Absolutely without a doubt 100% one of the sketchiest moments of my life. Entered the top of the fox hole relatively quickly. Spotted a written off cayman in the gravel far too late. Hit the fluid and grass/mud and completely lost the backend. Held it on the lock stops and managed to miss the barrier after jumping the kerb and driving over the wheel the cayman lost. Got out of the way enough to stop and jump the barrier. 2 guys left in ambulances and 4 out of 5 of the cars left on flatbeds. Assuming I’ll find some damage when I get it on a ramp but feeling crazy thankful at the moment. Just insane. Genuinely can’t believe it. The 2 cars behind me ended up in the barriers and must have missed me by a couple of inches. gently caress. Watch the slo mo carefully. The second cayman literally flips over the top of the first. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=luvAklORVe4&feature=youtu.be E: Some aftermath too: https://youtu.be/ZGQgd6I9Az0 Bape Culture fucked around with this message at 11:20 on Oct 14, 2017 |

I meant to post these a while back. I don’t understand how it’s possible but these are just sparco evos for half the price. Even the hardware is still sparco as is the fia approval. Oreca build half the Le Mans grid and are legit as hell so I assume it must be some kind of sponsorship thing? https://www.oreca-store.eu/turn-one-trophy-s-race-seat-fia-approved.html Very good and much more rigid than the pro2000s I used to have.

Heading out to the ring for a full opl track day on Saturday. Don’t suppose any of you lot are out? I realise most are American. Getting some tips from big Nige: https://youtu.be/h_hLD6WR0q0 And letting him and VLN maniac Moran have a go in the LSM3. Should give some good places to start to improve the car as well as my own driving. Can’t wait.

track day bro! posted:Never heard of OPL? Got a link are they a uk tdo? Opl is just open pitlane m9. It’s a circuit days day. Yeah man I’ll come along if you book anything. Ideally want some Friday days so I don’t lose too many hours at work. Either track is fine with me!
