Sunday Cruise 3/14/10 (SoCal)

^^^i'm with WS e30 trece on this one :)


if you would like to learn more about how to handle your car on the canyons, then please come talk to me as I can teach y'all how to handle your e30s. I have taught many people on how to race their cars in different race tracks using different cars and it is 'cuz I have had enough experience and driving hours at actual race tracks (Willow Springs International Raceway is one of them).


To be honest with you, the only person I am comfortable going fast on the canyons would be Rob as I have seen his lines and he actually knows how to heel-and-toe/rev match upon entering the turn and modulating the gas during and after the apex. There are other people that I am comfortable with, but may need a little bit more practice especially after seeing their lines.

Basically, turn early because the goal is less steering especially during the turns. Brake early and do not brake during the turn as that can cause you to under-steer. Make sure you got good tires if you decide to turn quicker than the suggested turning limit (mph), otherwise, follow the limit when turning into the apex and accelerate your way out of the apex. I hope these basic info helps.

This is very true! I couldnt have said it any better :pimp:

I see I see. sometimes I go there. randomly. Haha. I used to have a friend that lived there.

So its settled. Everyone who goes to the castros this weekend will need to bug them about setting up the event. They already have plans on going twice a month. I'd be down to shell out $100 ish a month to track my car. Does anyone have some sweet hook ups for california speedway? That would be killer since they are local. I'd hate to have my car crap out so far away from home with out trailering it.
