Nice lap love it 🏁🏁🏁 How happy you are with the Hankook TD ? What could pressure you starting? I am going to test same tires next month at Road America do you have any information about the tires you like to share with me ?

[@TrackAli]

I'm comparing them against Michelin Cup 2s and Nankang AR1s on the MINI and against Yokohama's AD09 and A052 compounds on our Civic and Golf. I like the Ventus TDs - they feel good on track once you get dialled into them and they perform well. I aim for around 30PSI hot and would run them on as a track tyre on all three cars if I could. Hope that helps. Looking forward to your footage. 👍

@@TrackAli thank you so much. We running Falken Azenis RT660 and Dunlop Direzza Z3 and we starting around 27-28 psi cold then getting 34-35 psi hot . Assuming the Hankook cold psi would be the same? What you starting before first session? How low you drop the cold psi?

[@TrackAli]

@@minimafia7616 I usually head out with them at 32PSI (road pressure) for the sighting laps and then drop them as required. 30PSI hot for me equates to around 24PSI cold. 👍

Hello! I have a gp3 and I'm planning on going to the track with it for the first time. Already have braided brake line and motul RBF fluid, stock disc and pads, suspension stock, currently on michellin cup 2. What disc and pads was the mini running? Thank you

[@TrackAli]

Our car is completely standard with MINI discs, pads and fluids and Hankooks Ventus TD tyres which were optional on the GP3 from certain dealerships. 👍

@@TrackAli Do you know if the gearbox can be upgraded?

[@TrackAli]

@@Paul922 The Aisan gearbox is shared with a number of other MINI and BMW models so there will no doubt be someone out there who can update the software on it but it's not something I've looked into. 👍
