    Another great video. Interesting tire experiments. Congrats on the 305 tires, the M2 rotates beautifully on them. My guess on the reason for less grippy cup 2: it's not the tires. Instead, the front rims inside the cup 2 tires might have a more significant positive offset or less significant negative offset. That is, they are pushed further outside. On the other hand, pushing the front wheels into the wheel well would do good to the handling in your case. If my guess is not too crazy (which is aligned with my comment a week ago and negative offset should have higher priority over wheel width and tire stickiness), swapping the cup 2 tires onto the stock rims (if fitment is good) would let the cup 2 live up to their sticky reputation.

    Interesting that you seem to run the MTC only on either 5+ or 0, not on 1-2. What's the reason for that? I would have thought keeping a tiny bit of traction control active would be helpful.

  • @JackieDing86

    @JackieDing86

    Жыл бұрын

    So here is actually a brief understanding of the M TC on my side: M TC at 1-5 monitors the yaw angle. I found those settings, when I played with it, often creates initial on-power rotation when I step on the gas but then cut power when I exceed the set limits of the yaw angle. So I'd end up sliding but not able to put the maximum power down, i.e. slower. The M TC at 6 often lets me rotate on entry, then maintains the fairly minimal slide angle while maximizing traction. I found this to be the easiest to be consistently fast with. M TC at 0 gives full control of the power, so even when I'm full on sliding, I can demand full power from the car and find some forward momentum. This might ultimately be faster than M TC 6, but a little harder to drive it right consistently. It's a lot of fun to play with honestly. I'm having a blast!
