Can Can GT3 "respond" similarly with R6s and NT01s?
Use both tires on a 996-GT3. My question is not whether I can achieve similar grip levels, but whether I can get these tires to behave similarly (e.g., feel, reaction/transition speed, etc) but at different grip levels? Basically, I love the feedback, sharpness, limited roll of my car with R6s. Note, I have triple adj Motons. I got my car setup decently for R6s and I occassionally like to use the NT01s. However, because of the softer sidewalls (presumably) I can't get the car to react as quick as I would like even when I adjust high speed and low speed compression. I also really can't stand the sensation of "roll" with the NT01s vs the R6s. Is the answer that I need to change canister pressures and swaybars as well or is the answer that I will never achieve the same "feel" and precise reaction between the two tires? Just want to know if I'm wasting my time.

I went from R6 to RA1.
To me they drive exactly the same just faster. Mostly the front end grip through the turn allows you higher gears in tighter corners. The only adjustment I made is less camber in the rear for better tire wear. Shocks always make a difference, if you change, you wuill have to go through playing with the settings again. Picture driving with corder Hoosiers compared to them being in their prime. Same difference. |

Thx for the input. BTW, I was the guy that came by at David Murry to ask you about your Traqmate settings and the issues of it not recording every session. You may not recall.... |

Having driven my son's 951 on both tires, I would say no. The R6 sidewall is stiffer so it works at a lower slip angle than the Nitto, and no amount of suspension twiddling will fix that. Can you get it close in terms of grip? I would say yes, but only within a second or 2, else all of the club racers would be running Nittos instead of R6s.

I do recall, orry I could not help you. I hate Traqmate..It is an ongoing experiment and frustration.. Quote:

Funny about the adjustable shocks. I always have this urge to try something else to see if it makes things better in some way. Well, I guess I know really have to just pick one tire and stick with it instead of swapping rims/tires. thx to all for the input. |
