Ditto with the skill issue, though I do know that for the left hander (actually two left handers), you need to brake and turn in much earlier than think. I've learn't this the hard way on the bike. I'd like the extra front camber too though I don't want to install solid camber plates and would like to be able set camber back closer to standard when back on the road. 'Not sure if this is possible. I did have issues with rear grip with the Kumhos though, particularly coming onto the front straight. I had traction control fully off and could certainly feel the e-diff working. Too much power and both wheels lit up and the back end came out. It was pretty controlable with the right foot though. I'm sorry I wasn't in the same group as Dizzy and yourself as it looks like we were running very similar times. Next time. It was fun watching you guys chase each other though. |

I don't know the setup WAY. He's been running the engine for a few years now though and it seems very reliable. Andrew probably knows more...
Are you (or any others) up for a ride to Phillip Island for the GP in October? I'm riding down from Brisbane with 15 others. Camping at the track. 'Hoping to talk my brother into hiring a bike and riding out from Melbourne to meet us. Mattyv is flying down for it too.

No Dry sump, just an Active Autowerke Supercharger kit, brakes, suspension, tyres, etc etc, runs hard and well, he's run NOS on it before for drag racing but the car is built for multi purpose so he drags it with NOS and circuit races with it without. It makes big power.
