Tony Posted March 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 Would a wheelie bar have helped do you think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liner33 Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 yep certainly , I'm guessing like the GTR posted some time back they put a lot of boost in at half track That Bahrain strip isnt the best according some of my mates who have raced there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted March 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 I've always wondered why they don't burn the surface like they burn off white lines on the road? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liner33 Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 Good video here explains the surface. I think the problem with Bahrain is the sand blowing on the strip https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tBxBGmUlM9c Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tango Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 Yes a friend sent me the link a couple of days ago, very scary. Don't fully understand how it managed to fly sideways after totally leaving the ground, unless there was one hell of a crosswind. Anyway got one of these in the garage now, and it weighs a good two tons so even if it has more BHP than the IS-F, I can't see it leaving the ground anytime soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parthiban Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Very nice! How are you finding it compared to the IS-F? Initial reviews (TG aside) have been quite positive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phipck Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 I don't think it was a cross wind, as the car lifts it lifts one side more than the other. With the nose in the air and the left side leaning slightly ahead of the right the car will peal off to the left. Best example I can give is when safe to, open your car window at speed, put your hand out the window like you are going to hi 5 someone and twist your wrist slightly so the left side of your hand is ahead of the right slightly. You should fee a push to the left as the wind deflects off your angled hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
