Video of my 1st ever track day with Michelin take off slicks
Just wanted to get this vid posted before I hit the sack! TIRED!
Any way I will go into my thoughts of the Michelins versus Hoosier R7 tomorrow. BYW skip the 1st 4 minutes of the vid! |

He really is. I’ve watched this other clip several times. He moves past others almost like he’s driving in the novice group.
https://youtu.be/kIi3qAcwffw Interested in hearing your impressions! I assume 18” slicks? Any walk around videos of your car? Would be cool to see |

Yeah I need to take a proper walk around vid! Yes on 18 rims. My take away. >Heated up faster then what I was expecting! >Improved rear grip, allowed my to apply the throttle on exits, no doubt on this one! >I seemed to be more stable under heavy braking. >The tire seemed stiffer. When I would make aggressive turn in the car defiantly gave more more feedback. Felt less "squishy" >With stiffer sidewall it allowed me to dial in my timing on heavy braking and turn in. Basically I could feel the weight transfer over the nose of the car and with the weight transferred I could time the turning more accurately. >Taller rear tire helped my gearing and allowed me to stretch out 4th gear for a little longer. |
