First lap really is an ice skating party here. Third lap you will get full tire grip. Only am able to get 57.35 as my fastest and not consistent. Great driving and thx for showing us a 56er's racing line and brake/lift process
Awesome, Im doing 57.3's but I know I can go faster, need to be braver into turn 1 and trail more smoothly, shift down to 2nd later in the corner as you do, and need to take a tighter line through turn 3 but I drive the rest of the course the exact same way.
Not only faster than most of the track guides I've watched this week but smoother too, with less curb etc. Nice! Currently done a mid 57 but not massively consistent. Any idea why I struggle to match that in the race, even with draft, or am I probably just being too careful?
Trail braking is the answer. You transfer the weight to the front wheels so the rotation you can get out of them is more. If you're having trouble turning while on power, then you might need to learn slip angles. The car slips a bit, helping rotate the car, since you're only slipping a tiny bit, you still have basically 95% of your acceleration, at the cost of being able to take a turn faster. There's a bunch of tutorial explaining it. But basically, you either yank the steering wheel to whatever side you wanna turn, then quickly go back to how you would usually turn with the wheel, the sudden yank of the wheel will cause traction to drop on the front wheel, causing you to slip into a slide. Then when you counter back to normal turning, then you have just enough grip to maintain speed without spinning out. The other way is, to just lift the throttle a tiny bit so the weight transfers to the front, then turn in and accelerate out, this will cause the same effect, but is a bit slower than the first way i told you about. But it's a good way to learn it, so it's a more rookie friendly way of doing it, until you can master doing it without the lift

First time on limerock today consistent avg 102.5-3. First corner kills me
damn, i was quite comfy with my 57.9s as a rookie, but this kinda changes a perception of a solid lap. good job!
This track super fun, had some great battles around here!

Great video mate!
Top work pal

You should be way faster in the race with track temp increasing and draft! Maybe just being too precious
Great stuff thanks!
FAST AF BOY
You're super fast
Hello, how do yall just rip the wheel into the turn like that, mine feels like it’s constantly under steering on power even with slow turn in
