Yeah it started raining .. as track drivers might know .. a track gets ten times more slippy !! and it did ! i have some rain pics aswel .. but here it started ..

In the corner before this i had to drive overs ome dirt caused by another spin .. That combi with rain and slicks .. is no good !!



When it still was dry !!

I was on the heels of this ****** for 3 rounds !







As you can see i need stiffer springrates on the back

As you can see the track got wet !








(what a top fotographer BTW !)

The car started to slide foreward.. so i decided to set it 180 and roll out of the corner backworth ASAP !!! as if you check the site ... loads of cars followed my example !! ( i.e. not the place to sit and watch the cars go by!)



And rolling back



And then get out !



If you like pictures you can order them he is great !

This is the A1 GP track Zandvoort !

 

BTW chasing the LAMBO with!

Together with my friend



NOW THIS LOOKS nothing but 120 BHP at 500 kg !!
here followed by the 4wd drive and light division

 

Nice post. That looks like ALOT of fun.

Some awesome cars there too from what i can see.

for more cars

 

Frank... Always in the dirt!

 

he man why drive on asphalt when you can go muddin!!

 

looks like someone had a good time, looks like you need smaller sway bar in front and some stiifer springs all around, but nice save!

 

The car is pretty stiff however i was hammering it there ( slicks ) ( note i do not carry my car around, as i was keeping up with diffrent breed cars)

the swaybar is super upfront ROCKS ( why is that i need smaller one in your opinion ? ).. however especialy in the rear the springrate has to go up a notch or two .
However sqaud is bound to happen due to trailing arms.. the only thing i want, so i agree, is stiffer springs .. it has revalved koni yellows on it !.. SO lets hope i find something on the yards!


But Yeah lets keep it balanced.. to stiff would make the *** slide all over the place agian !

 

Great pics. I've been hankerin' for some 280ZX road shots!! Or is that a 260 2
+2??

 

if you look at this pic, it looks like the front is to stiff, because of all the body roll. the stiffer rear springs should help dramaticly, but it looks like the front swap bar is keeping the front suspension stable, but its throwing your back end into hell, with that sway bar its stiffing up the front of the car so much, that its making the rear end loose, you could propably cure this with the stiffer rear springs in the rear and maybe tightening up the rear sway bar? or maybe even just go down a notch of the front.

acording to these pics..

 

I agree on the rears, though the trailing arms make this effect, rememebr this when im at WOT.. but im planning on some springs ... tips ? ( it is also the strut tower bars actually !)

 

whats your current spring rate/sway bar thickness

 

nice drivin in the salad frank, good thing you didnt hit the wall.

 

Do I see 4 Z's and a Skyline?

 

I'm not seeing a Skyline

 

I think the skyline is the car farthest ahead. Too bad Frank is so far behind. His car is so bright. I really like the yellow on his 280zx. Also what front air dam is that? I like the looks of it. Kinda stock, but a little different.

 

The car furthest ahead is a Jetta II

Rod.

 

Nope it actually is a Saab 9000.

Anyway yeah i tried to stay clear from that wall by letting her spin trough so .. that worked out well .. driving scholl helps !

 

i hope to go to the driving school next year when i get the racecar finished, up here its manditory to have a licenced matched to your cars speed and class to race. no idiot can just bring in his car and go for it.

 

Can anyone tell me what airdam that is on Frank's 280? I'm interested in possibly getting that style airdam. Unless I'm retarded and that's just a stock one.

 

It's stock. But he's got the non-US style bumpers. They dont have the rubber blocks sticking out so it makes it look a lot cleaner.

 

i didnt even notice that, but now that i look there missing, and are those driving lights next to the turn signals?? that looks so clean that way.

 

I guess that should be the non-North American bumpers then

 

yep canada uses the same crash rating as the states, actually ours is higher, thats why we couldnt get the mitsubishi eclipse(now we can), or the ford gt.(now we can) in years gone by
