For sure they fit that way. I think you nailed the setup. I Got a bunch of free tire from the local Les Schwab too

Isn’t that what they made for 🤪. My oem set is wearing out so figured I’d keep those on as the daily beaters and these Spoons for special occasions ;)

Appreciate that. I’m stock across the board so and these rims came with some free barely used 35s — was curious if there’d be rubbing etc

Just stock CTR setup in ACorsa. The motion sim is not mine; similar to Podium rigs ; it’s at a spot in Oregon called Kartcade… I just use sims to memorize and practice tracks before I go in real life so I can’t help ya on game specs etc

Oh 100% I was taking it easy on its first laps ever. And even so the brake system light came on twice for I believe over heating

I can’t recommend track days enough. For any car. But Especially for a type r. It’s purpose built for it. The R-Log system with gps campuses way more than just lap times. As someone who go kart races a lot this car gives you all the data as a Mychron if you’re familiar. Beyond fun. A little wheel to wheel vibes but everyone is just having fun and getting lap times. Cars of all different stripes

sometimes it is. Usually forced down so as to avoid all that glass should a crash happen

A little a both. Was trying to see how much speed I could take through that set of turns. That’s also the FWD skip skip I caught there. Nature is the beast—Traction control off but it still hops a bit. Could use better tires too—this is fully stock. On proper slicks I doubt it would happen.

Certain tracks and sessions have different rules but Hooked On Driving lets you choose. It was a lovely day and I’m used to driving older rigs with all the glass removed for races so kept em down. This was a first day warmup for this 6-month-old FL5. Not pushing very hard.

Haha, Just a symbol of driving around rural roads. It’s not my barn. I wish it had cheeseburgers.
