Video - One lap in my 3,3 turbo
Enjoy !

You easily see the guy in front of me in the RS is the better driver but that's why he races at international levels and I don't
I am geting used to the setup with the new suspension. Turn in is really sharp, some understeer when going out of tight bends that I have to learn to deal with.

Be carefull Miles ! When you start you can't stop !
Sameer, I have a H&R "cup" kit, tailored to the weight of the car but not adjustable. I haven't made my mind up yet wether I think it's to hard or not. I have been out on 4 DEs with them, when the track is smooth it feels good but gets scarry at the 1st bump. Probably a question of getting used to it.
This particular track was much worse one month ago when I tested the new suspension there the 1st time. I wasn't faster than last year with my well run in dampers, the car just bumped around and it was scarry. Since then they put new asphalt on (they obviously forgot a few well placed bumps) and I was 1sec faster than last year.
Overall the handling of the car is much improved, good response, esay turn in, easy to change direction, more oversteer at turn in and understeer on the way out. When I am really used to it I hope I will get slightly faster again.

It looks like a fun little course but you need some longer straights to stretch the turbos legs!!
Thanks for posting, it is fun to me to see others enjoying their C2 Turbos on the track.

Thanks guys
Swedish tracks are not to turbo friendly unfortunatly. This one is OK, the gearing is not to bad, we have 2 others that are much worse.
Funny how I got some comments like "Have you thought about buying another car ?" when I started to track her regularly, now nobody comments
