    Love seeing the progress of this car, makes me want something Vtecy!
    I was also wondering if you'd considered getting a suit etc. I know it's a bit of expense, but given how fast the car is getting it might be wise to look at things like a HANS device. Obviously hoping you'll never need it, but I always feel a lot safer with than without.

    • @police428
      @police428 2 роки тому +83

      I agree with JIMMER here. With these kinds of tracks, ones that aren’t the highest quality in terms of safety (metal and tire barriers with not so smooth grass). Extra equipment likes a HANS device, race suit and proper helmet will be a great addition. I’d rather have it and not need to use it and not to have it and need to use it!

    Maybe it’s time for a big brake kit, you’ll be able to get on the brakes later in the turn, and they’ll stay cooler.. some DIY brake ducts too 😳 maybe some hood Louvers to keep the engine bay temps down, cooler engine, and less pressure under the hood.. tune it to go faster 🤩

      He doesn't necessarily need the extra spinning weight from the big brake kit because it is a small car, but he definitely needs brake ducts. Besides ducts are way cheaper than possibly having to swap to 5 lug hubs and wheels.
