Rrocket should bring the Supra to shannonville I can flog it around the track and we can see if it is nimble. ![Smiley :)](https://www.autos.ca/forum/Smileys/CarTalk/smiley.gif)
No timing that's dangerous I'll just flog it ![Tongue :P](https://www.autos.ca/forum/Smileys/CarTalk/tongue.gif)
seriously though it's all about the tires pulling 1.4g's on R's is godly I love it!
EDIT: forget shannville it's a
track, let's do calabogie, you can camp at my place.
Yea...it's all about the tires. No doubt. I managed 1.02-1.05G on street tires. Vredesteins Ultracs. Thats's with 255/45 F and 315/35 back. The tester said if he was tracking it, he'd do 275's all around in an R compound. He said it would be wicked. Though he did say the 255 help the left to right transition with the giants 315's out back.
Honestly it just doesn't FEEL nimble, IMO. I know I can get through corners wickedly fast, but when I drive the S2000, it feels RETARDED fast in corners. Maybe it's the small size...maybe it's cause your a$$ is right on the road? My car is one of those deceptively fast cars. It will NEVER feel "flickable" even those it is pretty flickable
And no doubt you are a superior driver to me on road courses. I only road course 1-5 times per year with my full street set-up. Next to tires, set-up makes a HUGE difference. Ahhhh....I remember when I use to be on the road course every weekend from the time it was nice until it was too cold. And several of those were doing 4 hour endurance races (on bikes). I'm really lucky I've raced on some tracks it would be near impossible to get on now...Braienerd (closed), Mid-Ohio, Road America are the big ones.
I still like racing. Drag racing is fun for me. It's cheap, easy to get there (I just drive there and race!!) and the pay-outs are great. Road racing does put a smile on my face though!!!
You are welcome to flog my Supra anytime...as long as you keep it out of the barriers!!
