Yeah, I have to agree with Mr WILL, you may not be driving your DC2R correctly and it also sounds like you've setup your DC2R wrong, with all that extra bracing..

only time when i get u understeer is in the rain.. if it is good weather (which is only time when ill be driving harder) my car will tend 2 oversteer more then understeer (have alot of rear bracing,stiffer setting at back for sussi)
and it sounds like ur talking about the street, i would say yes a rx8 faster on the street, but on the track where it counts... dc2r is faster!
i slapped an rx8 as well nothing special also drove 1 feels like a nugget compared to a b20
I don't think the DC2R will be faster on the track than an RX-8.
The tighter the track the more advantage to the RWD RX-8.
Funnily enough if it has really long corners, especially uphill ones, it will also suit the RX-8 or S2000 more.
Both are easy cars to drive however. The chassis is better than its power level and neutrality.
Which one will I buy? The DC2R. IMHO I don't think the RX-8 has enough power for its chassis. Whereas any more power in the DC2R than stock it would have too much torque for a FWD to handle.
We had the same corner exit speed. I done the criss cross move which cost me some speed where we exit next to each other with same exit speed. Was really suprise that it didn't pull away.Quote:

well, the corner was really tight so there weren't a whole lot of lines to take. also, my dc2r just has the rear bar and a front bar thats connected to the sussy instead of chassis so the 'setup' isn't a concern.
yes road was street/winding roads, so yes the result could be different on track. it's really up to the driver to deal with understeer then. even so, on track i'd be incredibly surprised if the dc2r posted superior times to the rx8, given advanced drivers. thats like saying that the dc2r posts similiar times to s2000/350z. i think a lot of people give the rx8 a lot less credit then it deserves.
B16 vs RX8 anyone?

aaronng heard of Drifting?
I think you watched too much Initial D. They are not drifting in that vid. Heck, Tsuchiya was going "scary, scary, scary, scary", and the other driver went "dangerous!"Quote:
