I agree that having it in the tool box is not a bad idea. I am also sure there are turns and situations where it could be the way to go even if you have a suspension that works well.

I would also point out that the more I learn the more I find myself using throttle to adjust my attitude in the turn, more so than brake. I look forward to playing with the Zzyzx suspension and learning to dial in exactly the sort of action that in the end suits my needs and style.

 

Hah! I'm not that smart. I don't know and don't have room in my Cranium for that much information. I figure I paid a knowledgeable suspension tech to do it for me, and if it does something I don't like, I'll just cry about it until he fixes it.

 

Yes, you do. Great tool for decreasing radius and throwaway corners.

 

I thought that was a case of not having any brakes rather than late/ - trailbraking

By the way - Summit was PERFECT yesterday

 

Are you sure he didn't mean to say the outside front?

I only trail brake on slower corners, the slower the corner the more I trail brake. The faster the corner the less I trail brake. At higher speeds I don't even bother because I feel it is unsafe. There are different thoughts on what is faster and different driving styles that different drivers utilize. People tend to tune their suspension to suit their particular driving styles. Depending on the suspension setup trail braking may not even to a viable option, meaning the car may be prone to spinning out undertrail braking conditions.

 

correct outside front (it KILLS the same brake caliper too on antilock cars)....

 

inside.. outside.. front.. back... whatever (j/k)

 

thats what I say... until I realize the reason is Im off track spinning...
