Because i had learned to take corners in a particular gear, I kept doing that, even though my speeds else where were increasing. I eventually learned that the corners taken in 2nd ( as a beginner) would be done in 3rd as i learned to carry more speed and so on.
When all these other "fixes" don't help, its time to cure the cooling problem with the "bag hammer" by mounting a center mount front cooler  |
Interesting. I was at Summit Point Shenandoah Circuit this WE in near perferct weather. Car was doing double duty. First day was fine. Second day I began taking some turns in second and was at a higher RPM, also the temps the second day were 10 to 15F higher. I'm getting ready for Watkins Glenn in late June (spots still available for a great Potomac Region DE) and will see what develops with the changes I am making. Thanks for all the replys.
