G50 03 Gear Ratios........again.

[LuckyP]

I've had enough of the quest for 200. I've had a fair few Vmax attempts to scratch that itch so now I can concentrate on making me and the car faster on track.

So if Vmax is no longer a goal, do you think that for 497 BHP the std G50 03 ratios should be popped back in?

Jeez did I say something to offend? Only just met and you're off! Still remember the ring idea, nice place to try out those G50 ratios!

The Ring is exactly the kind a place I want to make sure that the std G50 03 ratios don't compromise.

What sorta speed do you need on the straight there?

I'll only have 175 to play with. Is that enough?

More than enough especially since you cannot blast the straight
on Touristfahren days

Takk.

What speeds do regular schmoos see?

Let me know if you are looking for a new home for that long top gear. Would go nicely as a cruising 6th in my G50-20.

....Have you driven the Ring?

No Sir. I haven't. And I don't have any delusions of grandure....

....But, and I think the Ultima troops would agree, when you set your mind (and cash) to a goal, you wanna take on advise, chew it over, then make your informed decision that you hope will get you there.

Any more nuggets for Ring virgin?

I f%$King love Pistonheads!!

Where else can you get information on tap like this??

Thanks Thor!!

And of course you meant to do this??

Don't worry, our cars can be driven slowly as well as quickly and I take on board your comments. My ball size is inversly proportional to armco proximity, so I should be OK.......with a bit of luck!

I guess one can purchase some kind of monitor with your position and next few corners mapped out.Like sat nav crossed with Sega???

Thanks again.

Just thinking about doing the 'ring in my Ultima brings me out in a cold sweat
You've got far bigger bs than me P

What's wrong with driving the ring in your own ultima, you don't have to be as committed as Thordur to seeing your backside overtake your frontside, go on say you'd like to have a go, it's what you built it for really, bookings being taken now for july/august

I'm in Tim.

Might go on a recce bofore then though (seeing as I don't have a playstation!!)

Think we saw that one in the queue on the web cam

Looks good huh??
