    You were really fast. Fantastic job. You can definitely dial out some of the understeer. Your girlfriend seemed so calm probably thanks to your fantastic ability to smooth out the squirrely moments.

    Thanks for the shoutout and great meeting you!
    5k/6k is IMO a bit soft for the V730s, I'm at 7k/8k and it feels about perfect on track. 5k/6k is what I'd run for SX2s or a slightly slower tire. Agree on the camber. At 3.6F/2.6R I still need a bit more. 4/3 would probably be about perfect.

    Nice driving. Want to drive Sonoma someday.
    I had a GR86 but only in track off-season months (Oct - April). Traded it for a CT4-V Blackwing 6MT since I had an opportunity that I couldn't pass up. Loved the GR86 though and would have kept both if I could.
    I had bought a bunch of stuff for the car (Kosei K1 17x8, 235/40/17 RE71RS, CSG CP pads, SPC 81305 camber bolts) but had to return it all. Hope I can get another one some day. Like you said, having a cheaper, slower, lighter car is going to be more fun and rewarding because you can push it harder.

    • @Zygrene
      @Zygrene  Год назад

      CT4-V BW sounds like a worthy upgrade. Still need to drive one.

    I'd be curious to know if you would enjoy a Nissan 370z that's modified similarly to your BRZ. It's got the torque and the double wishbones you want at the expense of a bit more weight. With good tires, suspension, and cooling, I bet it would be a great comparison

    • @Zygrene
      @Zygrene  Год назад +1

      Yeah I'd love to drive a properly modded 370Z. It seems to have good potential.

  • @bullwing
    @bullwing Год назад +2

    How many days on the v730s? I really like that tire for its longevity, both total life, heat capacity in a session, and heat cycling resistance, not as fast as an A052 in outright hotlap grip, but better at pretty much everything else.

    • @Zygrene
      @Zygrene  Год назад

      This was the 3rd day, but one of those days was at a soaked Sonoma. I think I can easily get 5+ days out of a set.

  • @OVER5TEER
    @OVER5TEER Год назад

    Work on your lines through 3/3a and 8/8a. You're straightlining them - you should be sacrificing the first corner for better exit drive off the second. You will gain 1-2secs easily with that simple tweak. The 8a exit is massive...

  • @johnzhu5735
    @johnzhu5735 Год назад

    Curious what you think about how a double wishbone suspension would help?
    Also does the ZyBRZ have any aero?
    Fantastic driving and lap times!

    • @DC5Brandon
      @DC5Brandon Год назад

      It's better at keeping most of the tire connected to the pavement during high speed cornering. It also allows one to dial in more negative camber, which increases the tire patch during cornering which in turn, increases grip.

    • @Zygrene
      @Zygrene  Год назад

      Not even an OEM duckbill. Cars like these are more fun with no aero. Brandon is spot on.

    How do you like the v730 on track I currently run rt660 on my civic they get so greasy after 2-3 laps very hard to set a fast optimal lap in there operating window looking for a tire that I can lap a entire 15-20 minute session with any suggestions?

    • @Zygrene
      @Zygrene  Год назад +1

      They're consistent and predictable. Not a 1 lap wonder like some of the other 200TW. And they're cheap.

    How much of an effect on tire wear do you think your alignment has? It seems fairly aggressive for dual purpose use. Also, do you have any plans t o get a baffled oil pan?

    • @Zygrene

      I'm about to go even more aggressive with the alignment lol. No plans for a baffled pan yet since I'm sticking with V730.
