Hi guys, here is a small piece of how fun I had this sunday..
(I went to the track together with Duke(www.revline.se) on the rennlist forum!)

Me chasing a tuned NSX on the track..

A locking diff in that S2 trans. and the NSX would be long gone much earlier

Puppan

So true my friend!! :-)

Very nice, thanks for sharing. I love stuff like that, awesome guys! So, if I may ask, I think the engine is still breaking in? What was the PSI leve you had it at 12 or 14 or? Is that track pretty bumpy, because it seems like you were getting a lot of feedback into the steering wheel?

Do you have to move your hands that much, is it the track or is something that you personally like to do? Just curious, as I like to leave mine on pretty much in the same spots, even if I have to rotate a bit over.

Puppan

You are welcome! :-)
The track is really bumpy and my car is kind of hard... :-)
the boost was set to 0.8 Bar so the car probarbly made about 400Hp..
As we mention above it´s a bad track not having your LSD gearbox in place..
Could use about 20% of the trottle out of the bends!

Duke maybe have some more info!

Puppan

Well the track is kind of narrow with tight bends that´s one reason the other is that the TurboCup cars has no power steering and a faster steer gearing wich makes it really hard to turn tight with!

P.s the last reason is that I have weak arms...

AWESOME!!!

I am currenlty engaged in defending 951, mostly in stock trim for the debate, in a track situaiton vs NSX.

So I already posted the vid over there.

Can you specify the thread?

Oh ok, now that makes sense. I had a feeling the track was really bumpy based upon the feedback. And no power steering too? Ouch. And you have weak arms? Go to the gym! Just kidding. You guys looked great. Good for you

Ski: If I may say this pal, any driving school will teach you that you should be either at 9 & 3 o'clock or 10 & 2. Your hands should pretty much stay on the wheel in those same spots (for the most part), unless you are talking about a hairpin, where you will move your hands around. You are doing the right thing, trust me from what I gather.

Puppan

I am for the first time in 10years and I have awful pain right this moment because of it..

Thom

Any spec on the NSX ?

RolexNJ

Great job pal, just great. Glad to see you had a good time together. I can't wait until your car is really broken in and to sse what it can do. You have a sharp looking car too.

Do you have a web site that talks about the car and it's specs? Or is all that top secret?

Duke

Another thing worth mentioning is that the alignment that is far, far from optimal making the rear end a bit nervous especially when braking. Puppan handled the car like a true scandinavian rally driver
