Don't waste your money with HOD. It is pathetically slow in advance and you can only pass on straights.

Lar, gald you have a 2 wheel drive GT3 again! Now I can't relax with you on the track

Guys, I have heard that putting in an LSD came produce more understeer, is this correct? What is your experience? Any change in handling characteristics at all?

Race group is good for hod. No pointbys well at least never got blackflagged like in advanced grp. I remember Mooty and I did some passing that made someone at the track nervous(lotus club) but they approached mikymu bout it. Weird. Mike

I went back to the cup spec ramping
Even then it's very hard to get it rotated in slow, tight corners!

plus1 understeer especially in wet or in tight corners.. but that is normal ..basic physics.

btw Vic even with Motorsport steel internals if you go for the later Cup clutch pack it is very aggressive, the older one (*pre 2003) that you probably have is better for mixed use.


Mike drives flat out, cuts through corners so he doesn't notice

if you go for the later Cup clutch pack it is very agreesive,
Mine has 38/52 don't know exactly what that means, but they backed it off a bit.
T1 at VIR was undoable, the hairpin at Sebring was OK.
Initially I had huge clunking noises when i came off the track hot, when thecar cooled it went away.
They told me that should not happen anymore, as it is now less "tight'.
