"Official" Lap Times Thread

[TW00Si]

I just thought of adding the suspension settings, as many inquire. Going forward you can also enter that information.

Traction Control: +R Long Press, Pedal Dance, Short Press, TC On
Shock Setting: Comfort, Sport, +R, Comfort DE5, Sport DE5, Sport+ DE5
(use DE5 if using DE5 Module)

If anyone that entered time(s) already, let me know f you would like to me to edit it, and i'll add it.

Yes please update for me. Both entries I leave TC on. Shock settings on +R.

Amazing Build!!

I inputted the information using the form this way it populates the spreadsheet. Interesting that you used TC on with all of those mods, I'm all for whatever makes you confident. so keep it all shiny

I'm still a beginner with this car. I'm no Randy Pobst or Max Verstappen. Lol

• The car is too refined and valuable for me to push beyond my limits. I'm genuinely afraid of crashing this beautiful build, and I’m okay sacrificing a second or two per lap if it means I can ensure the car makes it home safely. I had several oversteer moments that day because the rear tires were too cold (weather 35f to 55f), so I decided to dial it back and avoid taking further risks. It will be a different story if it was a 20yrs old civic.
• I tried the long hold to turn off VSA before, but I didn’t notice much difference.
• I’ll attempt the pedal dance to fully disable traction control soon. Hopefully, I’ll have better luck in warmer weather.

The DE5 suspension controller is great here. I previously ran the FL5 unit and +R was far too stiff for this track. Pedal dance is needed to save the rear brakes. I’m faster with pedal dance and DE5 controller than I was with either FL5 controller +R long press or FL5 pedal dance. I am having an issue with the PWR radiator with a small leak that only occurs at high temps with track driving. So far I’m unable to replicate in normal driving. It appears to be a small crack that doesn’t exist at normal temps. More to follow once diagnosed. Next needed mod is suspension so I can achieve more negative camber to avoid destroying the soft sidewall PS4 tires.

interesting notes about being faster with the DE5 controler. definitely can be track dependent from what I'm seeing.

And which PWR radiator do you have? might have to get a pressure test kit to help diagnose possibly

I have the track spec radiator. It’s not leaking at all in normal driving, including driving around after a track session. It only shows any leak during high temp track driving. Because of this I don’t think a pressure test will find the leak unless done on a dyno at high temps. I haven’t been able to test this yet.

I’ve been in contact with PWR and may just send the radiator to them for replacement.

This is probably a silly question but you are sure it isn't the expansion tank leaking down to somewhere near the radiator?

The expansion tank isn’t near the leak I’m seeing. The apparent leak is on the right side (when facing the engine) behind the fan. I can’t see how any fluid from the expansion tank (on the left side) would reach that location.

No. There is a master spreadsheet for that.
