Nothing worse than getting a run on a car in the corner and the car is a dog coming out. We will have that fixed for Saturday and hopefully not get lapped again,lol.

Posted by: jibbyjebidiah« on: May 26, 2010, 03:49:42 PM »that is true dan, but ill have different gears for this weekend and everything should be much better!
Posted by: danno428cj« on: May 26, 2010, 03:41:07 PM »Best quick fix of this problem is to back up your corner. By that I mean let off a little earlier. You will gain a little less going in, but you wont push through centre giving you a better exit off, thus not loosing as much down the straight. And this will also cool you tires down a little, saving them for when you need to throw it in hard. I will go through my in car videos, and see if i have examples.

Posted by: jibbyjebidiah« on: May 26, 2010, 12:52:08 PM »My car is a good example of what Evan is talking about. Mine is 100% a gearing issue, that will be fixed for this weekend. My motor is just getting into it's power range at the end of the straightaway and rolls through the corner very well, but is a dog comming out due to the gear ratio that is in the car currently.
Posted by: Racing Habits« on: May 25, 2010, 11:35:28 PM »What is most likely happening is the driver is overdriving into the corner and missing the apex causing him to have to wait on the car to turn before getting back on the gas for corner exit.The apex is not always available in a race besides a lot of times the driver who is inexperienced does not necessarily relate back to the crew the right messages about what is going on in the corner. You can bet your top runners know. Wernham you are right about the overdrive, experience shows the fast guys are pretty smooth almost anywhere in the corners until tires come into play.

If you look at the Oscaar or lm races this weekend youll see what I mean he follows the curve in and out imo

Posted by: Racing Habits« on: May 25, 2010, 10:44:48 PM »Thanks for the quick reply. I guess some drivers are still trying to figure out the new track as setups from last year will not work as well this year.Perhaps I should have also added that breaking a corner down generally speaking if you have a good entrance it is the basis of a good exit if your entrance is bad you are set up for a bad exit. This is where you hear the terms push and loose used a lot. Posted by: CanadianRacingOnline« on: May 25, 2010, 10:26:32 PM »Thanks for the quick reply.
