Tom is an amazing instructor - he gave me tuition at Anglesey in my Fiat 124 spider and definitely had more confidence in the car than me haha. I took a friend out before and after and he could tell a night and day difference as I felt I could lean on it more.
That old wheel is slippy and not ideal. Since this track day, wheel has been changed for a smaller Sparco one. I’m now able to turn it without shuffling to avoid hitting my knees 🤦♂️😅
Sure! I’m running: Front - 7.5/17/ET35 Rear - 8.5/17/ET20 I’m running a slight stretch on the tyres with 225/45 on the rear and a 215/45 on the front. Suspension is Vogtland coilovers. I have some room to go lower on the front but rears are maxed out and have the adjustment collars removed to get as low as possible Any questions, let me know 🤙
yea brother I was wondering what wheels to run with HR coilovers. my wheel rubs somewhere in the wheel well only in the passenger side at a slight turn. I’m running the factory Wheels’s on a 2001 z3 3.0i. wondering if your wheels would fit and not rub
Is it the tyre or the wheel catching? You could try running spacers to push the wheel away from the strut slightly, or run a smaller tyre like I am if the tyre rubs. Mines a narrow body, so the rear wheel setup will be slightly different for you, but front should be the same specs
@@Sam_Proctor it’s the tire rubbing on something but it sounds louder than the fender cover. I’m 225 in the front but the tires have a thick sidewall too. maybe I have to run the angled edge tires
Neat lines, late braking, fast weight transfers and the thrill of speed. Welcome to the family ;)
Thanks! 👍
@@Sam_Proctor nomex suit next yeah?
@@reyalPRON haha yeah! And a carbon fibre lid! 😂

Agreed! He’s great. Spending time with an instructor makes the biggest difference on a track day
Very great job man! For your next videos, it could be possible to fix a camera on the pedalbox to film your footwork please? :)
Thanks! Yes absolutely! I want more angles too. Especially from outside the car 👍
@@Sam_Proctor Great, thank you very much! :D
Nice z3
Thanks! 🤙
Why do you wear racing gloves, as you don’t have Alcantare wheel?
