i'd say good tyres helps the most, you can brake later...

Looks well balanced from what I saw mate. Well done.

With all the heel and toe stuff. Just jump in with other drivers and watch. It's the best way to learn.

Awesome results! Im stoked to say the least!

Ryan when you said I wouldnt be competitve with Russells car on the last battle I didnt know you meant id get no points for it! All good anyway.

Im happy to fly the RB26 flag AND the Street Tyre flag, and of course happy about stomping on the RB20 flag ;)

Tips on winning DECA: Big wing and red racing boots!

boo this version of windows on my lappy doesn't have word. booooooooooo

If you require more than a free viewer in future, and don't want to pay for a licence, openoffice.org is opensource and does the job...

Come past one day I'll teach ya ;)

Yep that's where it's at, you get into such a habit that you end up doing it without thinking about it. I reckon it's easier to learn double clutching and then progress to heel and toe so you have an understanding of the rev matching concept.

Yer roundabouts are the best for it. I learnt the heel toe action in an automatic of all cars lol, just in neutral to practice the amount of pressure needed.

LOL

i might have to get you to show me sometime if you dont mind :ninja:

Sure, heel and toe lessons for all! Don't judge me by the DECA results though lol, my heel and toe efforts are much better than my overall DECA driving ;)

    • Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
    • Did the noise appear after your sand trap adventure? Could be something got dislodged and is playing rub rub. Even a rock wedged somewhere.
    • Is there a shroud around the tailshaft spline into the back of the box? They can rub and make a horrible noise if they are not on straight/damaged. The heat might have caused it to grow too much in one direction and rub.
    • Strangely I noticed it either disappear later in the day, or not be present. I definitely noticed when I was crawling around that open wheel thingy entering the pits (that part was audible in car). Driving home and commuting around town for example, I didn't hear it. It's plausible that it was a brake disc or something still slightly in contact. The brakes absolutely felt BAD for the first couple of sessions, huge amounts of shudder and grinding as they got up to temp - And then I actually just forgot about it as the day went on/didn't notice it. The videos were from the morning when this was more present than the afternoon/drive home when it wasn't. I've asked around and got a variety of responses including handbrake shoe contacting hub, CV joints, CB tailshaft bearing as above, and clutch input bearing. I didn't test if it disappeared when clutch was in. I haven't noticed it in any of the other videos nor did I notice it when driving to that extent. More or less hoping the microphone at the rear license plate giving some kind of clue of 'something' but it looks like "spin stuff and see if you can notice it" is the way forward here. I could be smart and use the gopro mic and re-mount it to that location to see if the sound is still present at low speed actually. Sounds like a decent test whenver I have the CBF'ness to drive the car again. Given it's almost 40C for the day of the track day and the next 3 days after, the CBF is high. All I've done since getting home is unpack the car, remove the remnants of the lip and undertray and left it there. I was surprised how well the PMU Club Racers actually worked. The brake performance on the track was absolutely fantastic, best I've ever personally used, no fade whatsoever and the bitiness was almost too good, I was scrubbing more speed off than I needed to, but I also ended up infield when I started trying to scrape off ... less speed.... so...
    • Not really, no. Anything you would do is easily reversible.
