    I like it! So you are finding really wide rear tyres difficult to warm up?

    I run the car on Yokohama WTCC tyres. The ideal operating temperature range of the tire is 85-100 deg Celcius. When at session, i can reach 75-80 in front tyres with medium compound. But with the rears never manage more than 55.

    Now the car has new rear dual element wing which really helped the rear put some serious temp on the tyres. Last week i manage to set fastest time @ 2wd production cars no matter the engine power. And there were some serious cars that weekend! I will post pictures of the car and a video later.

    .
    That is so funny you mention this,about the amount of power you got
    I think that a perfect suspension setup and geometrie,in combination with a good brake setup,you can outrace more powerfull cars for sure
    But alot of people stil thinking they need 600 bhp in a frontwheel driven car but that is insane
    As for those adjustable arms are they wide track?
    As for the rear setup Dutchbuild created a combination of the syncro rear beam and fabricate control with uniballs in combination with the front hubs for the rear

    I can adjust the track to whatever i want. They are wide track, they can be narrow track, anything i want.
    Any link for that rear beam?

    As you can see, car has now a new rear wing. It is a dual element wing with really lots of downforce with minimum drag.
    The wing gave the rear axle so much better grip and only took away 2 km/h at the straight of the track.
    I feel so confident about the car, especially the rear end, that now i step on the accelerator and never let go through the bend. Car is 2sec faster to the lap on same day, same conditions. The brakes are much better too. Car can stop faster now, due to the wing again. Great motorsport part addition!

    This is a video of my personal best lap time at Serres Racing Circuit which also is 2wd production car record lap time:

    It is an excellent addition of aerodynamic grip. It was a choice between lots of them out there.
