    Not sure honestly, only around 180 or so I guess. Taking the curve in the back straight seemed to slow the acceleration of the car a lot, especially considering that 5th gear acceleration isn't that great as it is.

        How did the stock sussy feel? Do you think ur crazy set up would make a massive difference on this track? IM thinking the wide tyres could possibly make u slower coz of the long straights and not so many tight corners.

        That being said i have nothing to base this off except my own opinion :P

            Stock suspension felt pretty good, I don't remember it handling this nicely . Turning in with a little bit of trailbraking would get the back end turning nicely and as long as I was judicious with my throttle and steering inputs corner exit traction was pretty decent too.

            The area where I most noticed the difference is that the car seemed to need a bit more steering input and the lack of grip was very noticable under brakes. I believe my usual track configuration would be quicker but perhaps not by as much as it was at Winton, considering that I went more than 10 seconds faster at Winton on the coilovers and the Hoosiers compared to when I was on stock suspension and RE001s.

                      Would love to but most of my mod money gets eaten up in consumables these days. I cracked a front rotor on Sunday and I need new pads also. Maybe one day .

                              A CAMS L2S or greater was required on the day, I doubt that anyone runs events under AASA there.

                              It is moderately fun . The hairpin is a second gear corner not sure of exact speeds, but what the photos don't show is that it is relatively steeply downhill and cambered inwards so it can be taken at a decent pace.
