Thanks a lot 🙂 It handles so well, and it's relatively easy to drive. I really like the flex z's as well, only downside is the limited travel - I adjusted mine to give me maximum bump at the rear, but the second oversteer moment clip at the end of the video, I suspect is down to lacking droop travel 🙃 Any input on that, please?
Good stuff man, looked lots of fun! The brakes seem a bit soft to be honest, but you got it down quite well despite it. Looks like you could go under 9 if things align! I honestly miss that momentum driving a bit, its so focused on precise inputs. Hey man let me know when you're doing another trip and I'll come say hi :)
Thanks, It was really good fun! I had promised myself not to go to the ring in my Mx-5 before I got a roll bar, but my Panda didn't get ready in time, so what are you gonna do? So I took it a bit easy and didn't go looking for the limits, but I still found a few, as you can see in the clips after the lap ends. The brakes are standard, besides the Roddisons pads in front, so not the best, but the brakes looking a bit soft, is mostly down to me, again because I was taking it somewhat easy. I also think that it will go under 9 as it is, it's just a question if I dare try to get there ... And I definitely get why you miss momentum cars - they are "da shizzle", and the punishment for loosing momentum is real - like when meeting a bouncing GT3 in the apex of mutkurve ! I was actually gonna write to you to see if you were around, but the trip got cut short due to a buddies knee injury ;( - I will give you a shout next time :)
Really excellent track driving/control! I think better tyres would sharpen the handling/control, and possibly putting some spacers on to widen the track front and rear. Where is your Panda? Fit the original tyres on that car, widen the track with spacers, fit the bilstein pro kit and upgrade to brembo typ 3 upgraded sport discs and pads and the lap times with your driving will fall considerably in my opinion.
@cbca6567 I completely missed your comment, so sorry for the late reply, and thanks for the compliment :) Very true that better tyres and other mods would bring the laptimes down, but the laptimes are just not that important to me. It was by far more important for me to make the car handle well, with a good predictable setup, and I'm pretty satisfied so far, but will continue to improve it (and the car is used 95% on the street... ) That said, I would love to try a set of semi slicks sometime, but I'm afraid that with a lot grip and low power, it will just become too boring - with the Panda I'm pretty sure that would be the case.
Exquisite! A nice old car, well cared and being well driven is more than enough to have lots of pleasure. Fantastic video
Thank you 😊 I love it very much, and it's a such pleasure to drive. Glad you liked the video!
Great drive🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you :)
This is a nice lap. Decent pace out the car with some respectable cornering speeds.
I really like Tein Flex Z as a street coilover
Thanks a lot 🙂

Nice
Very tidy lap and love the car
Thank you! I love it too 🥰
