Ohhhoo ..weekend come again! I'm still working - fine tuning my car and driving method for better cornering. Currently the car is controllable not loose out corner as before and now it too aggressive/responsive and fast into corner. Setting objective this weekend to troubleshoot that. Area in focus
1. Car setup fine tuning
2. Engine clutch setting
3. driving style - i need to learn fast smooth cornering.

Currently get help from fellow forums friends.. Thank you.
