Really appreciate your feedback. Especially on the street experience. From purely the street perspective only, if you would do it again, would you go with a slightly lower spring rate? Like something between Fastroad and Clubsport?
I'd like to ask that question now since you haven't had track...
I'm sure you've already considered this, but there is a lot of engine heat inside that space.
I don't anticipate the rear view cameras for general use (dash cam, reverse cam, etc) would be made to survive in that environment for long.
It's entertaining and fun to think about and even more entertaining to see people's opinions and theories!
With enough money, anything is possible. In the end, Lotus is a business, and it all comes down to feasibility and profits.
I personally wouldn't hold my breath on any of this...
Agreed! I too have the touring suspension and there's just a lot more weight transfer than I prefer.
Bus stop chicanes feel like ages when you're waiting for the car to take a set or settle before putting in more input. That's really irritating when coming from a more focused/dedicated...
Agreed. I am able to engage ABS on command with OEM tires. I will re-eval when I move to 200TWs or lower.
PFC 15/08 is working well for me. Very good pedal feel, consistent travel, strong initial bite if that's your jam, but very good modulation/release characteristics. They didn't score rotors...
We can take this offline, be happy to share my data and findings with you. I'll PM you.
I have no skin in the game to whether or not others run brake cooling or not. Just simply suggesting to let data guide one's decisions.
Just from my experience, blanket brake cooling isn't always the answer.
It's best to assess your braking sustained temps and operational window to determine if cooling is needed.
Although these air scoops may be less forceful, I went through a period of cracking rotors when I was ducted...
