The Honda S2000 vs Subaru BRZ is basically a classic matchup at this point with how similar the cars are! This is by far my best track battle yet as the driver was really good! My lap timer wasn't working at the time but we were probably running around 1:44s here.

Its kinda sick seeing that nugget of a 500 Abarth on track, those lil 140 ponies that tirbo engine is pushing were almost keeping up with the BRZ. Great driving as usual🤙🏻

Awesome video. I think your wing might be pretty stalled, making it just add drag than downforce 10:45. I had a look at the Result Japan Legal GT Wing and it seems much less aggressive. Might be worth looking at to significantly improve your lap times.

For 10k, I'd personally just get a built IAG block with a turbo kit instead of a kswap. Great driving as always. Can't beat a fun back and forth with a similar car.

@dadhats 2 ай бұрын

personally I just don't trust Subaru motors, even built ones. track guys tend to find a way to blow em up and they're not cheap to replace like a k series (once it's in anyways lol)

@EFLO787 2 ай бұрын

So, unsure on the front end of the s2k, but has some angle which will cause the front end to lose more grip. Tires are definitely a thing you have going and looks like track knowledge does too. He seemed lost a few times but kudos on him for sending it and MAYOR KUDOS for you for doing very well with someone in front of you and braking where he did, rather when he did. Although, will say that having him behind you did affect how you drove a lil bit but it was still pretty tame. As for suspension, his suspension is by far better than yours. Same thought as “reputable company” works here too. You need a 9 lives wing

Get a clutch pack LSD it's kind of pointless to tune the balance/behavior of the car without one.

@Iseenoobpeoples 2 ай бұрын

@@dadhats Because the car has completely different characteristics afterward. You worked hard to have good balance and behavior then you swap the diff and everything is wrong, lap times are slower. Especially if you want to set the LSD aggressively, everything has to be reconsidered even the components themselves. Once the car is setup properly again you can enjoy the massive difference in performance/behavior.
