sl114 Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 My car was pretty much standard. All mods were for audio or visual effect. Was it not a GT4, then? Or would that not make much difference over a standard, 276bhp first edition? Mal. Oh yeah it was the 296 PS version. Its had 20 more bhp but less torque so no difference really. But revvs slightly higher so about the same if not slightly quicker. Totally irrelevant and any difference would be too minisule to even quantify. Major differences would be things llike tyre tread depth, brake pad and disc conditions, fuel used etc. Oh and not forgetting, how much bottle have you got? Throwing your pride and joy into a corner at 100 mph......... thats where its won and lost I do actually agree and disagree, it will make a difference but yes it will come down to the driver at the end of the day. Hence, JAY - lend me your car, we have a fight on our hands here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rickya Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Your biggest problem is gona be damp/frost/icey track. Yesterday it was approx 3 degrees & I was skidding & applying opposite lock down all the side streets around where I work!! This was while pulling away from stanstill or at only 10mph turns! But IMO a lot of this is to do with putting fatter wheels on this year, the 275 rears dont help in ice or frost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wes.brook Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 1:38 is a nice time I learnt a lot from Graham on my visit to Dunsfold and have since then been applying his techniques/pointers to my regular driving. I'm pretty sure that I would beat my old time on my first hot lap, should I decide to visit again (which I might ). My tyres were at the legal limit as well, and having recently replaced mine again all round, you notice the difference is grip straight off.
