Thunderhill West CW - 1:27.124 - 86Challenge Round 8
Good day at Thunderhill West CW (reverse usual direction) with 86Challenge. Video is best two laps of the day - 1:27.47 and 1:27.12. Optimal for the day was 1:26.8 so left a bit out there but happy nonetheless given this was the first time I’d run this configuration.
Second lap - forgive the audio, cable got wrapped around the mic somehow, hence the scratching.

Enjoy the sound of 8-10 day old SX2s around freshly repaved Sonoma. The track was very green (literally and figuratively) but by end of day had rubbered in a bit and by most accounts was a bit faster than pre-repave.

      With that setup you will likely want a 5mm front spacer (just for a bit of extra clearance) and -3.5F/-2.5R camber. My car is probably about 1.5" lower than stock but hard to say exactly.

    My times at Sonoma were between the 1:56s - 1:53s on a MK7.5 GTI. I'm aware you were another of the few to achieve those times on fairly stock GTI. How do you compare your old GTI vs the GR86? Any thoughts you can share? I went from the GTi to a 981 Cayman S...

    • @will_l
      @will_l 7 місяців тому

      The GR86 is a better track platform out of the box simply by being RWD and lighter. With less work to the GR86 I’ve beaten my old GTI times by several seconds. That said I miss the GTIs powertrain and especially that sweet DSG gearbox. GTI was a much much better daily. The GR86 is livable enough though in lightly-modified form, so I have no regrets on the switch. 981 Cayman is a great choice too though. There seems to be massive crossover between GTI/Cayman/GR86 owners, many people have two of the three. Cayman may be next for me if I can convince myself I don’t need back seats.
