First Track Day -- Should I?
I did several track days with my lightly modified Cooper S. Loved it. Now with the Sportline 228i, I'd like to try to get the confidence I had with the Mini by doing a beginning HPDE. Brakes are stock. Tires are stock run flats. If it is just about learning the car (rear wheel drive) is there an issue taking it out stock? Thx.

I took mine to the Hockenheimring stock without issue. Brakes even held up fine.

you should probably start 38-40 cold 44-46 hot... Do 1 session and check the rollover arrow on your tire to make sure you are not rolling over... you can then start lowering the psi till you find what's the best setting checking wear is still above the arrow |
