fckillerbee · 08-18-2008, 11:12 AM

just a suttle hint for all the noobs going to these events, up the tire pressure in the rear to 50 if you have a ka. I'm one of the guys from 626, and a lot of noobs don't have a right set up to take full advantage of this great course. and go all out...its seriously very hard to mess anything up...only if your stupid, or trying to be gangsta! have fun! good luck drift collaboration!!!!!

Thanks for the tip man! I have a stock KA and 17"s were really hard for me to spin so I sold them and got some 16"s. With 45-50 psi in the rear tires, I had a blast tearing up the 16" tires

Then I tried lowering the pressure to around 40 because I felt/was advised that I needed a little bit more grip in the rear cuz I kept spinning on the first transition. Worked out pretty well

cfrost · 08-18-2008, 04:29 PM

if you're spinning when you're transitioning try loosening up your rear shocks a bit also

that might be a bigger issue than your tire pressure

messing with those knobs on your coilovers is going to be more beneficial than playing with your tire pressure

if you got the KA just bump that psi up and call it a day

If i recall correctly, my rear coilovers were on full soft. Is that what you meant by loosening up the rear shocks?

cfrost · 08-18-2008, 06:11 PM

yep

in that case, it's just you!

FlavorShotClothing · 08-18-2008, 10:00 PM

haha that's what I figured... thanks for the tip

I just have to work on being more consistent. I always have a good 1-2 laps where I don't spin, then the next time out I spin both laps, then the next, 2 good laps... Just need more track time!

make sure you get a really good alignment. Don't be afraid to let go of the gas and lightly brake

.

cfrost · 08-19-2008, 10:38 AM

^alignment is good to have but...

you should be able to tear around any course on a bad alignment if you focus enough on yourself and don't blame the car

sounds like you're on the right track 94accord..

dont blame the car until you can't blame driver!

junkyiv · 08-19-2008, 05:38 PM

Colin, You're my HERO!!!

It's true folks, a properly set-up car will NOT make-up for poor driving skills.
BUT, superior driving skills CAN make-up for a poorly set-up car(to a certain degree).

I hope I can make it out to this one.

foreverdark · 08-23-2008, 09:17 PM

3 weeks left sign up.

94cc0rd · 08-25-2008, 06:34 PM

^^ yup yup! sign up folks!!! hopefully it will be cooler in september!

also if you send paypal payment, please remember to include your full name and zilvia screenname too. we received a couple payments and we're not sure who sent them.
