nelsonian101 Donating Members 961 Member For: 16y 5m 23d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 09/11/16 07:23 AM Author Share Posted 09/11/16 07:23 AM Agree completely. "Twist of the wrist" series of books, are my favorite books and transitions to car's very well. Preparation is key though. I have 20 years of circuit experience too remember, and have competed and won 5 motorbike races in the mid 90's. I do not believe increasing my corner speed will dramatically reduce my lap times at a track like Wakefield. I'm at the limit there. I have 7 years of data for that track. Hundreds of laps. Tried everything. Plenty of room for improvement at SMP and Winton though. 4 hours ago, ML24 said: Since you have the ZF, are there any proper external oil cooler options available? Or is what you already have pretty much it? I have a large cooler at removed foglight. Thermo fan sucking air through. Big finned sump. ZF temps are now controlled. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Covers braking, turn in points, how to get on throttle as early and smoothly as possible. All crucial for a good lap. https://www.amazon.com/Twist-Wrist-Vol-High-Performance-Motorcycle/dp/0965045021 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This time with the rear wing and splitter. Hoping for a 36 or 37 this time if all goes well. Refitted another PWR 55mm radiator in a further attempt to keep temps stable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Centre and sides. Winton will be 32degC so hopefully I get some decent laps in. Pics to follow. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
