My available power on the a/x track is greatly increased due to the added two cylinders. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool.gif)
If I romp on the throttle it steers around into a spin. And I carry WAY more speed into the turns, so more braking is required. There are other Bay Area locals who will have to deal with this as well. Randal, Andy, Nathan, Britain and others will put their new power to the pavement for the first time as well in just a little while. Learning to drive again is fun yet frustrating.

The rear wheel lifting issue was the rear bar holding the tire up... because the FRONT bar was not set stiff enough allowing for excessive body roll. He later made an adjustment and I didnt see it happen again. I spoke to Trekkor offline about the 911 who took TTD.. they guy was coasting for the first 1/4 of the track. He had a ton of power/stick and only applied it when the car was straight. Trekkor has been taught in the past "all gas or all brake" this doesnt work for everyone especially people with Hp and torque. I tell people with 1.7/1.8/2.0 engines "flat on the gas or brake"..not people with 6 cyl engines.
