| Post subject: | Help...Cornering |
The XB8 is a great car when it gets tunned in...mine corners great but I still can not keep up with some compettetors in the turns...what can I do to make a noticable change in middle speed cornering and slower tight turns? |

depends on your style? some people drift and some use hardly any brakes at all and have great throttle control. its really a good idea to watch someone who you think is good and ask then what they do. |

Thankz Joor and Z ..Zman...I have no real style...I try to maybe slide a little into hairpins ..and there is a S turn that I slide to but I do a lil of everything when I drive...I bought the JP2 pipe and am going to try a 5-5-5- diff setup..im running 35 front 30 rear shock oil...Im sure if I can just watch my throttle in the turn ill keep the rear where it belongs...behind the car..but thankz for the pipe suggestion...it controls the power and the car still runs like a bat out of hell.  ..and Joor... I dont think I want to go to a shorter car...I want to stay with the xb8 and even if I didnt want it I got to much $ in it to give up on it..and I think that im going to mess with the front roll center..but im an hour from the track so I have to wait untill I get there to tinker with those paticular things.
