Title: WCMA Event #1
Post by: Mkelder on June 27, 2016, 07:34:14 PM
Took far too many runs to get it right and it is sad seeing where even more time was reviewing the vid afterwards but here is what I think was my fastest clean run.

Here's the only footage that I have from Sunday, not the best angle but probably more interesting than my driving  :).

Me in my Mini: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYV1dc5PYtQ

Nick was also kind enough to let me borrow his car for two runs. I didn't feel I made any obvious errors in it, but the best I could manage was a full PAX second off of my time in the Mini: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p77Qfr565zM

I am scared of your Mini... it is like a professional grade Zwilling kitchen knife, where as my Fiesta is more like a potato peeler.

It's too bad you never drove my Corvette, then -- if your Fiesta's a potato peeler and my Mini's a kitchen knife, then the Corvette's a chainsaw.

As an aside, I thought that one of the two ways* in which your car suffered the most compared to mine was turn-in -- I felt I needed to wait a lot longer after turning the wheel before your car took a set. I was corresponding with one of my friends who used to run a Fiesta about this, and he said that "front shocks help a lot". Something to consider.

* The other was wheelspin. Man, I really appreciate having a real LSD now. :p

That is kind of what I meant, the mini was crazy precise and responsive to inputs, where as the Fiesta is more rubbery.

Hmmmm, front shocks... time to start looking ;D

Please don't encourage him Steve, we can hardly catch him now, with some trick shocks we will all be dust  >:(
