Well for those of us at Cadwell Park today for a track day we had rain for a lot of the day. Late afternoon sun came out but the rest was just wet.

Have to say My Leon loves it like this when running on Road Tyres but I did get a bit fed up with all the red flags due to a) people pushing cars too far in the Rain and b) Lots of single seaters spinning out as they are not designed for this sort of condition with semi/slicks

I don't get it why you think you have grip with so much rain :shrug: The car probably runs Cup tyres, which are not happy in the rain I reckon. Anyway! I finally made an exhaust vid.


I also created a vid from my buddies VW Passat "R32" with the VR6 engine. He has a Varex valvetronic muffler, sounds absolutely mental. Unfortunately, I used another mic as usual, so we have to reshoot the video someday.


Enjoy!

Well I am no expert but all I can tell you is when we have heavy rain at Cadwell i have a much better setup than the small single seaters and little motors based on the number of cars I was able to overtake.
Partly because I am running PS4S or Conti7 and my car is heavier than these other motors.
Also a lot of people came with Semi Slicks vs my normal road tyres which defo give me a better grip in the wet, downside is when it dry's out then the tables can change..
Finally I do try and use the wet line vs the Dry line on the track which does seem to offer a little help.

Or maybe its because I know the track very well and others are being cautious because they don't

Yesterday I integrated an emulator into my desk station where I test control units for my Leon, etc. It unlocks the speedometer, ignition, etc.
