Looks like you might be braking a little deep. Do you have an adjustable rear sway bar? If you like to trail brake, you may want to soften the rear sway a hair.

lol, the rookie didn't get the clutch in in time and stalled it!

~pit radio~ *muffled British voice* "Are you alright?"

~driver~ "Yeah, I didn't hit anything."

~pit radio~ "We could see that, what caused the spin? Is the car in good nick?"

~driver~ "Uh yeah I think the car's OK too."

~pit radio~ "If you want to bring the car in, we can detune that engine 20 horse power."

~driver! "No that's OK, I'll keep going."

~pit radio~ "We have a moped engine that we could swap in?"

~driver~ "Go to hell"

No I don't have an adjustable one, it is a 18mm one from a 944 turbo.

What front are you running? If you don't have the 23 already, you may want to slap one on.

We'll see how you do in June! I am not giving you the keys to your car until you run at least a 22 second lap in my race car.

What's your best time? It had better not be 26 seconds either!

Last year it was aound the 20.2 mark. But next year it will have more power and 8" wide slicks. You'll run 22 easily once you get used to it.

It´s not that smart to adjust the car to cold slicks
