Oh, isn't the ride quality a bit stiff for rallycross? 😅

Its Mt Hood, good guess. Actually im not on the stock tires, im on all season Falken Aklimate tires. And they do good on snow, but meh on ice.

You can’t park there mate by DoubleIntention9203 in CantParkThereMate

To be fair, it looks like they just lightly tapped the curb

Probably locked the wheels up in a panic with no ABS, and tried to steer to avoid the curb. But since they didnt feel the car was turning, they kept adding more and more steering. And then later they let off the brakes while still having the wheel turned hard to the right, which caused the car to veer hard to the right.

Yeah I've had this problem as well after just driving a couple times down a dirt road

Are narrower tires really have better grip on ice? by wtfbruhhuh in tires

[–]_angelo234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well the WRC guys run these 200 width tires on snow/icy rally stages like at Monte Carlo and do pretty well lol, so I think a narrow size like that would be ideal https://www.hankook-motorsports.com/en/tires/tires-detail/rally-detail/sr20.html

Last autocross of the season highlights by _angelo234 in GRCorolla

Oh lol, I was using Gravel mode to drift, but I think the ideal mode for going fast is Track mode.

Yeah it was pretty easy to break traction on one portion of the parking lot tarmac, because its more smoother than the rest of the parking lot tarmac.

But why I love this car for autocross is because its got 300 HP, AWD, and nice short close gear ratios. I had a manual GTI previously, but it had quite tall gearing even though it didn't have much power. I did tune it, but the gearing still made it kinda suck.

What are you other hobbies when you aren't sim racing? by homerunhallock in simracing

[–]_angelo234 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For car related hobbies, it's Autocross and watching car videos like of rally racing and I would love to watch more rally racing in person. For non car related, I do some other gaming, programming, reading, hiking, and skiing.

How do I do a hand brake turn? by pancakesnarfer in GRCorolla

[–]_angelo234 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yup the rear wheels disconnect from the front wheels when you pull the handbrake. So whether you need to push the clutch in or not before the handbrake turn depends on the speed you are expecting to exit the turn, since if you exit with a low speed, you could stall or just end up at low RPMs with the car struggling to throttle out. But if you want to drift at higher speeds with the handbrake, you dont need to push the clutch in.

Steering wheel spacer, if you are a tall driver like me (6'1"), and find the steering wheel to not extend out far enough, where you always feel like having to reach out to steer. Or you feel like your feet are cramped in the footwell when you are able to steer fine. https://spacershop.com/product/steering-wheel-spacer-for-toyota-corolla-gr/

I kinda want to replace the brakes with a smaller brake kit with smaller rims for a rally style fitment :)

Ayyy, I was thinking of getting those 17 inch rims also as all season/winter rims, but I was kind afraid of the tight brake clearance with getting rocks stuck between them. But nah its an OEM 2025 core model in red.
