August 2024 Autocross #1 P2 Finish D-Street BRZ

[@ShreN_]

Do you feel bad racing a new car? Would you feel that way for a much older car? (Older than the MR-S) It's been on my mind that dailying something like an SW20 that's been garage kept most of its life or a Porsche 944 just feels wrong to me for some reason. Maybe I'm just paranoid of breaking something, I get that cars are there to be driven but still.

nah if anything its nicer to race the newer cars both from a performance and logistics standpoint. I still would race my AW11 MR2 if I had her fixed up for sure! theres plently of older cars out in autocross / track that you may not really see in my vids like CRXs and EF Civics, EG6s, older vettes, Vipers etc...

Hi so, recently I saw this vid:kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z3_PeKR9fdJsp80 And I left some comments asking for a few things to improve myself, I guess its an old vid so you didnt get the notiff. Do you know someone to ask, or some yt channel or place to learn to improve fwd touge?

[@PM_DraKKar]

am not really aware of any FWD specific guidance for touge, however if you look up some HPD (high performance driving) academy stuff on FWD cars on track you can pick up a thing or two. Even if its not technique you learn, its the theory of driving FWD you learn. You can look at TCR cars for example and perhaps lookup a vid or an interview with a TCR driver and see their philosophy on driving a FWD fast. I wouldn't recommend TSRB btw...his content or "guides" are kinda recycled generic information that any "weekend warrior" would know about any drivetrain. Not only that but some of his info is misleading and can lead to hindering driver performance rather than developing it.

@@PM_DraKKar I saw your also replied to the comment on the other vid, really helpful, thanks.

@@PM_DraKKar Also shit, time to un-learn all the vids from TSRB, I found them pretty helpful and I've watched and rewatched them a lot, can you elaborate a bit on what ideas are misleading from him? I'll also check the channels you told me, but I've seen a fair bit of theory, and I meant channels like yours, I want to see the driving be put in practice, seeing touge runs helps me learn how much do you break, the lines you take in an fwd, which corners are faster to drift/grip, on which ones is better to pull the handbrake and which don't... Or just different driving techniques or styles, as long as they are fast, I'm happy to watch and learn. Also, last question, I dont want to bother you more, do you drive the eg6/ek9 with abs on or off?
