[QUOTE="ShadowFist, post: 10511360, member: 42601"] That I have. The lead instructor there races in the 24 hours of Le Mans so he knows what hes doing. I would HIGHLY recommend leaving your car as stock as possible (minus safety concerns, etc). The more built up the car is the more it can hide driving errors. For example, street tires versus full on racing slicks. Street tires give feedback and you know when they are about to lose traction. If you drive crappy, the tires will let you know so. Slicks on the other hand, are more grippy and hide your errors quite well. They also give NO notice that they are at their limits and you will most likely end up in a wall or in a field somewhere. Also, I'd run as low boost as possible. It helps keep the motor cool and you don't need 470 rwtq when you are learning (that comes later!). Check out the Open Track subforums here and there are plenty of topics on 'I want to track my mach/terminator/whatever. What do I do first?' [/QUOTE]
