ooh, he must've ditched the exhaust shield.

***DjChieNa*** · 05-21-2007, 12:07 PM

Nice...i've been wanting to see an apr diffuser installed along with a exhaust shield cause the way the apr diffuser is mounted, it looks as if the exhaust shield overlaps the diffuser. how did you mount it?

Those mudflaps remind me of my car. I was going to pick up an APR CF rear diffuser soon also. I don't have a CF wing though heh.

Hey Steve, great meeting you at LRP and checking out your car. Sorry about falling through on my promise to work with you saturday. I was in a bad place. I was able to watch you a bit and you looked good and smooth through the esses. You passed the novice I was working with twice. Good driving. Come to more track days! Regarding your description of the greasy feel of your tires, that was the first time they got hot and thats how it feels to drive on hot rubber. You were just pushing harder than you ever could on the street, it was not really a problem. One important aspect of track driving is the slip angle of your tires. It is the difference between where the tire is pointing and where it is going in a curve. Thats where the squealing sound comes from. If it is not squealing then there is more grip available in the tire. They should squeal from turn in to trackout! A squealing tire is a happy tire!! You will work up to constant squeal, Jake is there already, He was really torturing his rubber!!
