    Joe, I really like the fact that, as well as reviewing cars, your channel showcases really good car related businesses like Suspension Secrets, Motech Performance and (last week) Ceramic Pro. They offer really good tips for drivers who might want to improve things on their cars. Great job.

      Yeah he must've got confused about the weight (mine was 1638kg with full tank) also camber, iirc f series is about the same. -1.8 deg front on the G series isn't enough for track work, shame they didn't make it adjustable.

    Did you know the Michelin ps4 is available is 2 different compounds. The “normal” one and also the oem bmw spec, which is the one that comes from the factory. I’m pretty sure the Bmw spec has a Bmw logo on the sidewall. Also the Bmw spec tyre is stiffer for enchanted responsiveness and feedback but may be very slightly less effective in rain.
