> My car is faster in a straight line. But explain to me how your car was .3 seconds slower than a fully caged evo on Omlins and Rcomps with 375awhp, and a very skilled driver behind the wheel? Its because S2K’s are better on the smaller and tighter tracks. I’ll get faster and better the more I do it. **My times dropped and dropped all day saturday. And with better suspension components they will drop further. If you upgraded your suspension, your car would handle better too and your times would drop as well.** Your car is just better in stock form than mine for this stuff. Plus youre a better driver. There is no question.

Wait a tick… You mean to tell me that as you gain experience, and the temperatures rise outside (allowing for more traction), your times will drop? That’s just blasphemy!

New “upgraded” suspension does not equal better suspension. You’re a noob and like to think that though. There’s much more to “better handling” than bolting something on the car.

When’s the next Edinburgh event? As long as there’s no conflicting events, I need to go see this idiocy.
