Lap Times

[faisal]

possibly? I should be KILLED for using the "shoes" im using now :lol: i DEFINITELY need to buy better brakes n tyres some day... sooooome daaaay~~~ wuwu..

T14 is scary! T12 not an issue yet coz i chicken it out at 100-110 only.

T14 is an extension of T13. Taken as one. Late apex entry.

Good Brake pads will go along way in improving your times. You'll be able to brake later and harder. Tires goes without saying la, better tires equal better everything.

hehe.. under 3 min pon berkali kali track day baru dapat tau. hehe


mine.. 2min 57 sec. on putra gsr turbo.

good in straightline.. but hard to control on corners especially turn 13-14.

i hate this.. but fun. haha

i think , na engine can easily floor all the way while cornering while turbo
have to control throttle because of the sudden boost on mid range.

miss my na. hehe

Not really. Even N/A car have to apply throttle gradually to avoid wheelspin/understeer.

T12 is my favourite turn in Sepang. Lift off the accel and let the rear slide a little, when the car points in the right direction, FLOOR IT!! Thinking bout it making me excited!! Hahaha!!

 

[kikaider]

Does anyone left foot brake in this kind of turns??

Does anyone left foot brake in this kind of turns??

With the Formula Hayabusa or "Formula Malaysia" it depends on the grip level available. When at its best a small dab on the brake with the left foot was best, even though it could maybe have been taken flat, but it was slower because there was too much understeer on entry into the corner. Most of the time braking for a few meters was required.

Some guys do. Adian in the TEAM MATRIX Satria Super16 aka "Old Bill". His approach is in 4th gear, right foot flat but a dab of LFB to turn in

 

[kikaider]

Ok, next time i try LFB. But i still like letting the rear slide.

How about 3"08 seconds. 1999 Proton 300km Merdeka Race.

That was my fastest lap time in a works Proton Tiara 1.1 (55bhp/620kg)

Talk about snail's pace. All the Satria's and Putras flew by like I was in reverse.
hahaha

Not Hati Kering la.

The Tiara was dead slow. Max speed was 145km/h, so went everywhere flatout. Only brake and down shift to 2nd at Turn 2 9 & 15. The rest of the circuit was 3rd or 4th.

Saw your VW that day. I was in a red 86.

Better tyres and suspension would go a LONG way in increasing your corner speed.
