On yesterdays ride, I had a little more competitive environment to test the M3's in! In other words, there was a rider amongst us who could actually steer a bit good! Real good in fact. So at certain points I had a little dip! On each and every occasion where I tried to be a little more aggressive, the back end stepped out. Now, I am not talking from throttle usage either. I am talking about edge grip at full or near full lean. For the most part since I fitted these tyres, my rides have been smooth, sedate road rides. Yesterday, at a couple of points, this unnamed certain rider, rocketed past, and gave me reason to start using brakes into the turns and getting a little more body english involved. Each time I started carrying full leans, the rear got grumpy! Tack was in the box seat on one particular occasion to see exactly what I am talking about. I had just completed an inside pass on a car in a right hander where you could see through, and straight lined it past the car, and then threw it onto it's side to turn it, and whoa!!! the arse lets go! I was not on or off the gas, was just agressive throwing it onto it's side, and it let go! This happened on about 6 occasions yesterday. So at this point, I will be returning to a Racetech come replacement time. I might fiddle with teh pressure to see if it effects things at all. But at this stage, they havn't enough edge grip for me liking!

There are really only two questions in life. 1.Which way do i go? 2.What is the lap record?
I can get 8K from a front rennsport.
it makes a 12 turn in even quicker than a 190....have not tried this myself yet, maybe someone else out there has bunged a 180 on a 12 ??
