Decent vid mate. I thought you werent supposed to overtake on corners?
mark = cowboy :p
Where the vid from our session?

one of the yozzasport clios is on bodies which is the one in the vid that passes me and just fucks off into the distance
the other one was quicker down the straight but nothing special in the corners
your right chris your not suppose to but you also tend to find people with bigger engines dont like being passed
i cant do them on the long straight and i dont intend to spend my track session stuck behind some prick in the interesting parts of the track just cos they dont wanna conced over a lap there slower
im working on it fred but its too big a file for me to load on the usual sites
this vid only just scraped in on the MB limit lol

wouldnt mind but the gauge went to a 1/4 when i was driving to the petrol station but i still wouldnt have had enough to do the 106 owners session

well you will understand what i meen and how anoying it is so i just thought **** it and went for it
tb i was bored of the track afer the sax_p and RR sessions which i kinda enjoyed i wasnt really into it after that as much
its an ok set up for a couple of blasts but it became a bit lame once the track was learned as there was no real testing parts

i understand mate just have to be patient with the learners. was only 8 months ago when i started doing these things. my vids are now up in this section ;)
gutted we never got to play :(

tbh id have expected you to be quicker on the 106 owners session
you had slicks on and it was a good track for em thats for sure
and by the 106owners session came round i just couldnt be arsed as much as i was bored with the track

get them brakes sorted and ill take yours out for a blast and see what your problems are mate and maybe point ya in the right direction to fixing it
good tyres and better right foot control i suspect though ;) :p

tyres were fine for 106oc session but throttle control is something also new shocks are on my list now front is just not staying flat at all its all braced up but kept pushing front end out,
p-zero's were facking awsome felt great though the tight bits

mark even tho i have some good tyres i still suffer from massive understeer! i put a top brace on for the 106 session. i dont have a bottom one. i hope this will cure it when i have one. if not i think i need to get geometry checked out! i know tracking isnt right. look at my steering wheel in my vids :o :eek:

stew dont do top brace with out bottom makes it worse did on mine.
am looking at new shocks first then check car over

from your vid id say a couple of your lines out of the corners were a bit tight which makes you just fight the car rather than let it natrually drift wide and then back over for the next corner
you seemed to be using the same kinda methods i used for gearing though on a few tricky parts cos i found a few sections always ment changing into 4th only to have to change back down a sec later
bottom brace will stiffen the front up massivly though i know i wouldnt drive my car without one cos they makes a massive difference

a lower brace will make it understeer more, check geometry first,bigger rear arb or smaller front. bigger torsion bars would help massivly depending on shocks.

I don't get how that's a decent track for french hot hatches, its just a big oval. French hot hatches are made for twisties, not much of them on there.
It could have been worse, they could have just let us use the complete oval...

was it only me who loved the track? i thought there were a good mix of medium slow and fast corners.

I'd want to stay in the infield, shame its not a bigger area...

Love the 'Get out me fucking way' to the 306. It did kinda, not move, though.
Some of the Clios dont seem to want to actually fucking move about 5 mins in either, they just stick to the left, fair play for going past on the right, even if you do get em back in front and have to keep easing off.

i enjoyed it :)
yozzasport clio wi9th yellow wheels was dire in the corners and tbh i would of thought it would of been alot faster on the straights aswell
cheers for taking me out mark was a good blast really enjoyed it even if it was in a dirty 8v lol shame you had to cut it short aswell harassing that clio was fun

nice vid that after watching it i no what sum of my problems are .
problem one is my right foot ha ha
problem two sum of the lines i was taking were so much tighter than urs on the slower corners so i was really fighting with wheel spin

Nice vid, I'm guessing most of those Clios are 172/182's? In that case, they didn't really leave you that much on the straights! Also, what's the occasional whining sound?
