What would be the point of turning a GT4 into a dedicated track car ?
The whole point is that it's a compromise. Yes I wear the shoulders --- but 3/4's of the tread has worn very evenly so where do I gain by increasing the camber beyond where it is ?
I have a lot more to learn before I start messing ...

I would go as far as to say that trail braking is the fastest way in almost all cars, other than those which have loads more grip than power (eg F3 cars) when momentum is most important factor, not 'stopping and starting'
As little time gap as possible, between being on the brakes and being on the power,
This chap know's what he is talking about. The first thing that i do when im driving something new on a circuit is drive it with a traditionsl technique then try a trail. Most of the time the trail is quicker unless its something historic on crossplies or is a front driver with a torque vectoring diff. Even then a trail can still be quickerAs little time gap as possible, between being on the brakes and being on the power,
Is it nearly June 6th already? Remind me - who is going to be at Donington on Monday...?
Where's the best place to stay if I choose to drive up on Sunday evening?
Will our GT4's be quiet enough to drive on the circuit...........?
Will there be enough gravel at Redgate to catch all those understeering cars....? ;>

It's OK just zoom up to Redgate as fast as possible, brake all the way to the apex and then boot the throttle as hard as possible. You will then fly off the road backwards, problem solved Will there be enough gravel at Redgate to catch all those understeering cars....? ;>
