Our straight is about 60metres long into a fast 90 degree right hand sweeper. I give the brakes a jab going in & it pulls through nicely. It would be better with a oneway on this corner but the rest of the track lends it self to the diff.

ron was running the stock set up.....which he said was 60,000 front,30,000 rear.......

personally,I don't care how it runs..as long as its tunable(which it was)...the only reason I got on this whole bandwagon is I drove a 710 2 weeks ago and fell in love with that centax 3 clutch...(the r4o clutch pales in comparison)......

I just don't think I can get the car race ready(turnable) in 3 weeks.....
