[Henkjan]

why are the ACF trackdays always when I'm not in Finland

[Laaf]

30.8 is the next and last one for the season in Alastaro. In October the club goes to Nurnburgring

Man, i dont generaly like the shape of the C4 avants, and especially without the roofbars. But yours just looks so mean in some photos even though its stock looks. Must be the black wheels and knowing there is a badass engine under the bonnet!

[Thuppu]

Heh, the pads really was totally worn out. Luckily the pistons didin't fall out, was like 1mm or less and it would have happend.





Got new dics from MTEC UK and new Ferodo pads from Laaf, thanks I recieved them.







Had also to buy a kit of wheels, becuse they where so cheap. Almost new TEC by ASA 8x18", got the full kit almost for the price of one wheel. Nice quite light wheels for the track and slicks... ecsept the color.

[quattrostyle]

Very nice wheels (much better than the current ones )

[ringbearer]

I like the color!

For a while then I'd bet it would get old...

Alex, I don't know..? Had 3,2bar, and who knows how much it increased when the tyre was warm..? Feels like too much, but maybe the tyre is just too loose for track use. Quite good grip though for cheap china tyres, and they didn't melt down.

Hey Thomas, I forgot to come back to this thread. I highlighted your problem in red - no sidewall stiffness. Buy some good tyres

I like the lime flavour track wheels

[Thuppu]

Hey guys, nice that you like to color.

Alex, have been looking for btcc racing slicks, parts worn from ebay. Would be hard for the car, but have some plans for the suspension and bushings.

[Error404]

Yeah full slicks are brutal on the stock suspension, you will break stuff.
I would get some good high performance road tyres or some track tyres like R888s etc

[Thuppu]

R888's are out of my budget = 1000+ euros for a set. Was looking at Federal 595 RS-R, but someones was saying they are not any better than good quality street tyres.

Friends use this tires and they are happy.

Love the sound.
Little things that will make you feel more confident on the track maybe:
You have some turns there you approach in 4'th gear,brake,and you enter the turn in 2'nd gear.Rpm is getting to 6-6500k and car starts to engine-braking.This seems to get the car understeer massive.
Seems downshifting from 4'th to 3'rd before starting to align the car for starting the correct apex will be more appropriate.And attacking the turn in gas will save you of some understeer.
Even if max speed you can enter the turn will keep revs at 4.5-5k in 3'rd gear and full boost not available yet(do not know your setup rpm max boost) the turning on slight power rather in enginebraking will be more fun.
Even full boost not available and powerslide not possible.And maybe will get you better times if you are the"time guy".

Do not get me wrong,i do no comment your driving style,i am not an expert,i do not want to prove anything.It is just based on my quattro driving experience.Maybe other share different approaches.

Best regards!!

And go for the best pads/rotors you can get.Soon you will find yourself in the situation of left foot braking while right foot is on gas to get instant boost and power
Recommend ferodo DS range.
