my first track day
Posted: Sat Dec 10, 2016 8:27 pm
Had my first track day yesterday at Phillip Island. Organized by the MSCA. It was a fantastic event and run very professionally.
I seemed to be quick enough to be catching people, there was only passing allowed on the straights so I struggled to get around some higher powered cars when I had the chance after being slowed by them through all the corners.
after cooking my tyres, I wondered about a set for the track, and now i have a question - what is the benefit of knock on hubs? My car has them, but It seems that bolt ons would open up a world of wheels that didn't cost the earth.
All these race Elans seem to have knock ons. why so?
