Race at RCM last Sunday


had a Great time, I could done lot better.

I made a single set up change since great runs I had in RCM last week, Fr riding height.

I had 5.7 FR and 5.5 Rear in last week and ran great. but this time I got over confidence and lowered front to 5.3mm and kept rear at 5.5, wanting some more steering.

but that hurt me bad and didnt realized what s going on till today, cuz that track have inconsistent low to no grips, having lower made hard to drive and as traction comes up in some part of the track car get even harder to drive as day goes by.

as of results my best run was 1st one I was on pace for 24/5:06 which can be on top 5 of the race but I pushed too hard to crashed real hard in last 2lap ended with a broken rear a-arm.

after that run I was in low-mein eating heat, but I couldn't better my lap times either ended up in B main and also lost B main. disappointing but that s what I love about the modern TCs or type-R , the machine is so tip top in technologies and performance just an millimeter changing makes diffrence and you can feel it.

Love this machine and I will smell some coffee next time when I go to race(s)

see ya all out door soon!

type-R ran good yesterday at RCM


I'm finally finding a handle on the Carpet racing.

few things I learned on carpet this season is...
  1. having a good working diff is more important than a Diff in the Asphalt racing.
  2. of cos chassis need to be tweaked all the time, when the track is loose you spins out or when the track is tacky, your car will act like little biatch.
  3. get rid of all the compression in shocks, rear dampening need to be about as same as asphalt set up but front needs more dampening and all around stiffer springs. 17.5ish,
  4. I have to be very efficient on driving line, or very patient
  5. by the time I learned all that I also finally learned The 2010 carpet season is over
