My Ride: Mini Cooper
I was overtaken by 1 some time ago on the flyover before the hung tunnel. I decided to give it a chase and surprised the driver had to touch the brake for a mid speed corner.
despite buying a v powerful car, except when trying a bit of lauch control,I suspect 90%+ people had never used full throttle.

The guy in the TT last time could not use the car at TMS

was bored today so did a test on the psi on the RE11 tyres.
I try 4 settings which are 32, 35, 37, 40.
the 37 and 40 are way too high for the hard side walls, I can feel evey stone on the road and very bummpy.
32 is too low and for my 2.5L it is uder power for the pickup at start.
the best setting is 35 front and 36 rear. just right for pickup and not too hard on the ride.
I think the RE11 rubber is too solid for high psi unlike DZ101 which is 50% softer tyres on my last car which I need to boost up the psi to 39 F and 41 R
