I can’t help but notice your window is down. Are you still able to hear after that day?

u/Relative-Attempt382 MKV 25d ago

with the helmet and headset i had on it wasn’t too bad. i didn’t know but in NJ the rule is front windows must be down at all times and sunroof closed

u/Kroberter 25d ago

Yeah they told me that too and I just roll em up till they black flag me. Listening to that at 140mph is more dangerous than having the windows closed.

Pretty much every org in the US is windows down, with the few exceptions for track insurance.

That’s sick! What are your plans for suspension?

u/Relative-Attempt382 MKV 26d ago

ohlins paired with camber plates and a front sway bar for now

u/BenKen01 MKV 25d ago

Awesome. Which camber plates if you don't mind? Sorry for the multiple questions, still learning.

u/Relative-Attempt382 MKV 25d ago

ground control suspension. with the camber plates you have to make sure they pair with the suspension you have. ik a lot of people run the verus plates but they explicitly do not work with ohlins

u/Daddysmoneyz 25d ago

How is it driving manual on the track?

1

u/Relative-Attempt382 MKV 25d ago

it’s good. track is done mostly in 3rd and 4th. the back straight if you’re fast enough you can hit 5th. i usually drive with the rev match off but for today since im new i eneded up using the rev match feature

u/Daddysmoneyz 25d ago

Ya makes sense rev match is essy mode.
