Ledge Posted August 18, 2016 Author Share Posted August 18, 2016 Thanks lads. Yeah i need to lift my game to suit the car now. Richard im sure there is a smother way to do most of the track, realistaclly im a plonker with a fast car. Some shifts i blip but most i dont. Process i use is brake hard for half the distance then start shifting so its not going to overrev engine. Seems to be ok like that. Yes peter you gave me what i asked for but with 200kw more than i expected. Thanks alot. I will never be lowndsey so im not going to try. Its fuckin great fun thats for sure More vids soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
260DET Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 For a 'plonker' Ledge you seem to be doing OK, I should have mentioned that the sequential has an obvious advantage for a driver in that the actual physical shifting process is simplified compared with a H pattern. Anything that makes driving simpler, particularly with a power monster, is a good thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvemfast Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 If you've ever driven a sequential....... there's no comparison! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PZG302 Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Does my 3 speed C4 auto in my old ZG driven manually that I ran at Mt Cotton and in regularity at QR count as driving a sequential gearbox? The you are right Simon there is no comparison andyk_79 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBR Jeff Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 (edited) I'm coming over on Wednesday evening the 12th and coming back on the early flight Monday morning 17th. I'm coming over for the MTBA National Gravity Enduro Champs. Should be a good weekend. It's based out of Eagle MTB Park not far from you, but a fair way away that weekend. Jeff.

Ledge Posted October 18, 2016 Author Share Posted October 18, 2016 Thanks lads. Got bugger all hot laps in due to red flags. Was really getting frustrated to be honest. When you have very little track knowledge it was impossible for me to do a great time. I was focusing on straight and turn 1. The rest was just the way i had to go to get back to the straight. Car was awesome and performance was faultless. Will be some good vids coming up soon Cheers Paul CBR Jeff 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
