I remember when Patrick and I were waiting for you guys (fcpd group) to come back through several bikes cutting all the way into the oncoming lane where we were parked mid-corner...just because you have a bike doesn't make that a smart idea!

[onu2002]

It's not a smart idea ESPECIALLY if you're on a bike.

its a real shame i didn't know about your concern with safety earlier in the week brett

[RedCelica]

No problem man! Never too late for safety!

I mean...I'm really considering putting a cage in the S after our talks.

Just don't want to have to cut into her...

You have VSA, so a cage should be of no concern to you!

I just want to go to VIR

I will probably just find an AP1 though when it's all said and done

[s2kmiami69]

**WARNING** technical explanation below. for those of you that can't be bothered with physics, how microwaves work, or science in general: here is a bucket of kittens for your enjoyment:













VSA is pretty conservative if you go into a corner hard. Meaning it will brake the outside front wheel for you for stability. Do a couple of aggressive mountain passes and the left front brake pads get overused quick (right-handers are tighter than left-handers). With some skill one can easily learn to feather throttle to allow the car to rotate more mid-turn to counter for that understeer happening if you went in too deep. This is all based on street tires and stock pads. When you throw in R-compound tires with little tread left, and some heavy-duty track pads as I was running, and agressive camber (less tire contacting ground in straight line braking) the VSA throws off the stability of the car mid-turn because it is too jerky due to track pads braking harder, and VSA not understanding the limits of the stickier tires have increased, therefore activating too early.

loling at thread sub title. You would be bored at the hotel, there are no hookers in robbinsville

We almost nailed two bikers on the way out also..... and had a few cars come into our lane on curves...

The old pucker factor was riding strong!

Don't know what was wrong with people Sunday!

Cliff's Notes: turn off the nanny!

Curious what tires/pads you were running this weekend. Yours was the silverstone with wing & roll bar, right?
