hey dave,
nice run with you....lol
i think the road were just too twisty and lack of long straight for the 335 to take advantage.... On top of that, I was suffering quite a bit understeering issues in those tight turns.
Not sure if you saw it, but I almost lost it at one corner, the car went understeering under braking then I almost got it sideway when i applied 2/3 throttle trying not to let you close up the gap at one turn....fun but scary. I guess some suspension tuning is necessary...
Cheers,
Mike

I saw you brake very early and saw that you understeer that is why I say about 3 cars lenth from you.
you need to get ak47 to tune the suspension.

missing out in spades.
Guys
that road was challenging, esp as it was my first time.
lets do that road again, but one word of warning, just don't go too extreme.
1] Start Heliport
2] route 8 to Shatin and tolo road to Taipo mei
3] Luk Keng to Yuen long
4] Kamtin road to Tai Moshan
cut the time for snacks to "a fag and coke"
by the way lets take our hats off to the E60, such a big car and able to hold its own even against
a 335i and keep up with a Porsche RS, that alumiminium front and 50:50 distribution still commands respect eh boys?
Stanley - as mentioned 1 school tip for each mod you do, a legit way to get them approved by the wife
next meet 9th Jan??
time to get your next mods boys before the meet, those Brembos are very tempting,
time for the white LCI to get those and come out to play.....
