theoretically speaking it is correct from what my friend told me too:

FF cars: slow in, fast out

FR cars: fast in, slow out

but it depends also on the car behavior and set up I believe
I thot it is another way around..rear wheel driven cars have car weight shift to rear to help rear traction during corner exit

Its all about balance, its not about how fast u go around corner, it depend on the car setup too, tire, suspension, chasis setup etc. Diff setup the car change the handling characteristic, good set of tire sure can grip better then normal tire, not to mention adjustable vs stock, camber, toe etc... U need to setup the car to your driving style, then learn to control it from there.

All cars supposed to drive in the way of slow in, fast out no exceptional but if compare all different platform of car on their pros and cons...

FF:
tend to understeer/torque steer because too much work for the front wheel especially when reach about 300hp (WD:60-40)

FR:
or some FMR (front mid-engine Rear wheel drive) tend to turn-in oversteer when hard braking due to the back too light (WD: closest to 50:50)

MR:
most balance platform that can use hard braking for turn in and power on as early as possible. (WD: 40-60)

RR:
The most unstable platform but with 4WD it solved all problems.

4WD:
can be front, mid and rear mounted engine, the car characteristic still effect by above. But it is the most fun platform for engineers to play around with LSD, TC, torque control, DSC, EBD, active suspension, AYC, etc... to make the car behave against their nature.

To our TS, please do look for your car user’s manual check your factory geometry setup, follow and keep driving… and the most fun part for rear wheel drive is… never let go your throttle even you are losing control :dancing:

hi, still figuring achieving the balance before entering, in the, and going out the corner.... I do touge a lot when free
but still a lot to learn how to drive fast but safe.
I usually apply brake when approaching a corner so the front can turn according to my input, maintain the angle of steer in the corner and apply some throttle to shift the weight to back so the rear doesn't over steer and full throttle when straighten my steering.
sometimes the car give me smooth and sometimes it do struggle.
I drove a 4g92p satria cyborg.
is the balance is about how to manage and the way to change the momentum inertia ?
mind to share ? :wavey:
thanks in advance.

Interesting comments...
Like Wfhan, after 2 years owning an Altezza, i'm just starting to understand the car's many faces :hmmmm::dontknow:

Though car layout determines general tendencies around corners, suspension setup and alignment for an Altezza (as for any car) can dramatically change the car's behaviour.

Next, I've come to understand (through much trial and heaps of error) that there is no such thing as a one setup-fits-all formula.

bollinger, thanks for sharing your scary experience and for cautioning new owners. As you tweak and test the various setups, do it safely ya.
Congrats on owning an Altezza :top:

Be smooth! Always keep your hands at the 9 & 3 o'clock position on the steering. :biggrin: That forces you to think of racing lines.

yeah baby.. i so get use to 9 and 3 o'clock position that now holding the steering at 10-2 position made me feel a bit awkward...
haha..:rofl:
 

Random Post Every 5 Minutes

I just installed a Autogauge water temp gauge on my Iswara to replace the old 1(die already)...

then after some normal driving... i found that the needle is pointing between 90c n 100c...

is this optimum temprerature?

i scared wait rev some more my engine has to "enter factory"..

thx
