Ok so what is a good engine oil and Automatic Transmission Oil to use for the track in my 96 EK1 Civic Sedan plz.
Is there a floor jack at the track to swap ya wheels or is it DIY'er?
And if you took your backseat,sub out at the track + wheels.Is there a place to store them?
Are semi's Ok to drive on the road for 4-5hrs (2-2.5hrs there and back)?
The back seat will only be there if friends come up.I'll leave the sub at home,don't want it gettin' stolen if there no where secure to leave it.
^^^yes they will
ive drivin to winton with friends and the tyres on his car look like they still new.
thats a 4hr drive there, tracked, 4 hrs drive home. still looks in good condition
^^ as above.... helll sometimes i get too lazy to change wheels and end up driving with semis for a few weeks ahahah
Oh sweet,thanks guys :)
just remember to pump them to recommended PSI and they should be fine for street driving. Remember to buy semi's slick that are DOT approved.
Thanks Benson!
can anyone comment on over inflating the tires for track days?, ive never been to the track but wud think over inflating (ie above recommended psi) would be distorting the contact patch and just adding pressure to the sidewalls, then when the tires heat up the air in them expands increasing the pressure >_<. so im wondering if anyone can comment on noticeable traction improving when theyve over inflated?
on FWD it myt be alryt over inflating the rear a little but as for the front id say let em warm up? but im no race engineer ;) comments?
If you're using street tyres, get them up to around 38 - 40psi - Cold.
If you're using semi, you'd want around 34psi~36psi Hot, so you could start around 30 psi.
The side walls on a street tyre isn't as rigid as a semi, so you'd want more air in to minimise flexing.
