Hi there! There is a misconception that transferring weight to the outside tires improves overall cornering performance. It doesn’t. The reason is the load sensitivity of the tires, which is the same principle that allows for balance changes to the car when adjusting roll stiffness distribution. A car with less weight transfer always produce more cornering force, all else equal.

Such a fun track to drive! I live near the track and have driven it a couple of times on Track Days - I always wondered how fast a professional driver with the right car do it - pretty impressive.

It is interesting. Really fast and tracking out directly into a braking zone. They have a chicane there for the motorcycles.

6:51 I saw it happen exactly like that several years ago. I was in my C5 coming up on a Mini in the wet. Just as I crested the hill I saw him snap back to my left. He slid backwards into the tires at a pretty good clip. They red-flagged the session. I saw the car in the paddock afterwards and the rear end was a mess. It definitely wasn't going to buff out.

@ProfessorApex Жыл бұрын
Funny thing is I thought maybe you did hold me up a bit but the data doesn't show it. So no harm no foul. 10-12 is a spot that many people underdrive. They give up speed in 11 to set up for 12. You'll never be fast in 12.
