Corner

At one point I had a huge post with a heat transfer physics lesson and everything, but it somehow got nuked when I was trying to format the color. I guess its my fault for not learning HTML.

Anyway.

I went and spanked through a couple of corners after work yesterday and pushed the car to it's limits. The results are far beyond what I imagined possible. Even as I could feel the grip giving out, the car held it's line with just a little bit of understeer. This was on line textured fresh cement, so I think some of the astronomical grip comes from that. I'll never buy race tires for this car, but I'm sure that the grip they would afford would be far beyond what my meager driving skills could utilize.

Tight corners result in a LOT of understeer. Brake then turn into a sharp 90 and the fronts just grease out. Anything more than 270° of input without loading up the suspension first is just asking for a plow share.
