yeah, autoX. I cant comment on that. i did probably 4 times, and i just dont feel it neither understand it.
Therefor i do not have an opinion on how the "nannies" works there, neither in drag.

 

A depowered rack is better than a full manual. Shorter ratio.

 

yah i was just joking around. Computers and electronics are great, humans literally couldnt fly the fighter jets we make now, or travel into space without them. The problem is the electronic systems installed on most consumer vehicles are more programmed to keep things from breaking then pushing them to the limits. The thing is once you can get into those systems and make them work for you amazing things can happen. Just look at the Evo's stock ECU and what can be done with it once people got in there and started pushing the limits.

 

Same here. But our local SCCA group runs events every month and they are 10mins from my house. I go because it's better than watching races on TV and I could use the seat time. LOL. Plus it's kinda fun tossing around my car at safe speeds while pissing off the clique that's out there, every time i get fast time of the day. It really shuts them up for a while haha.

Werd. That's a trick from our Honda days. A bit troublesome in parking lots, though

I figured. Same here. 99% of what I post is either sarcasm or my trying to get info. LOL.
Back to your post: When it comes to engine management, heck yes. Carbs are the enemy haha. I just don't like anything that drives the car for me (a'la GTR). I am okay with ABS for safety and tire-saving reasons (though I have yet to have ABS kick on; I've come really close). I prefer mechanical parts because they are predictable and can be tuned relatively easy (I wouldn't know how to begin tuning my ACD). I know computers make cars silly fast. If I were all about winning championships and all-out fastest lap times, I'd have to give it up to PDK and all the other cool stuff. I just prefer a certain driving experience, so I'll be sticking with my ct9a for a long, long time (even with the acd )

 

^ all said, you need to reach out to English and try out the ACD tune lol

 

Or get off my wallet, quit being cheap, buy a Tacrix 2.0, and let my tuner send me a ROM. LOL. I have so many other places for the cash to go to.. Aero is next..
But I'll get there, eventually.

 

ACD will do more for you then aero.

 

If it keeps me from flying off Riverside at 100mph, sign me up.

 

sorry they asked me to remove it. RS drifting .... lol

anyhow here is something else instead.

Regardless of what it can or might do on the track most will live on the street.

So...Ford's best car ever?

really enjoyable read here. comprehensive, and it summarizes most of what we've been hearing about the fors track behavior

 

thank you for this post. really good reading.

 

this quote is taken from the link above
to me this doesn't sound like a good track car. the point of going to the track is to drive the car at the limit, for me anyway. so this basically means its a street car... and in my haven't driven either car opinion, I think I'd rather have the Golf R.

hopefully someone figures out the control unit for the RDU and can tune it to be useful for at the limit track driving... and cooling obviously



ps.
post isn't directed at kyoo, just quoting for link

 

I think part of the issue with the car not working well at the limit is probably alignment. You can see from his pics of the front tire that the front end needs at least another degree of negative camber. And I'm sure getting toe dialed in would help as well.
