Had a few incidents today's track event. It started off as a very wet track, and gradually dried out, but still damp towards the end. Apparently the stock S3 can get its tail out rather easily, but the driver really has to be careful when wanting to correct it, or god forbid, attempt to change direction for the next corner.
I managed to countersteer a few times (even with the throttle planted on some cases) and the car sorted itself out. For that brief moment, the male ego is inflated.
However, twice it backfired, the rear end twitched, and it sways side by side like a fish tail (tankslapper equivalent for cars?). The pros said I'm overcompensating too much in that case, but I just did it instinctively. To be honest, my brain isnt fast enough to digest the situation. Was just hoping to stay on track and not hit anything.
Good news is that I'm finally faster than a civic type R!!!
The way the 4wd cars leave them for dead on the exits of the tighter corners is not even funny.
Anyone care to share some wet track experience?
Oh btw, 400whp evo 9 on Moton clubsport suspension = awesome. That thing corners like a roller coaster, accelerates like an injured beast, and yet, is quite comfy over the kerbs.
