Just astonishing driving thank you! The video does not do justice for the way you drifted a front wheel drive car round Croft. BTW - does my "why not... oh no not this guy he nearly killed me at Barcroft" get quote of day? 😁😁😁

@TrackAliАй бұрын
Apologies for missing your question at 0:23 - my answer is about 4-5 outings now depending on the tracks involved - the smoother and flatter the circuit, the more tyre wear we get. However, we're also doing less laps now on average per day compared to when we started to let ourselves and the cars cool down. Previously, we might have completed upwards of 50 laps during a typical day at a circuit like Croft. We're now managing about 25. 👍🏻

Great video. Have you had any issues with oil temp or had to do anything supporting mods
@TrackAliАй бұрын
Highest temp we've seen is mid-130 degrees. No issues other than that. No mods. Just change the oil more regularly. 👍🏻
@jamietonksracing7367Ай бұрын
Appreciate that. I watched a video of one getting to 150deg on track so presumed you had to fit an oil cooler maybe. Which was the reason for the question

Were your brakes juddering like crazy? I am having the same issue, not with spoon pads but similar, rotors only had 1000 miles on stock pads, put the track pads and on hard brakes on track its shaking galore. Also wicket lap!
@TrackAliАй бұрын
No juddering per se, just the noise you can hear in the video. As soon as we take the Spoon pads out the noise disappears, as soon as we put Spoon pads back in it comes back whether we're on road or track.

Completely standard apart from pads and tyres. The A052s feel great on track but I wouldn't use them again because of the wear rate. I prefer the new AD09 compound. I had the A052s on for this trip to use up an old set.👍
