RASCAR: Kansas Practice Speeds

RASCAR Kansas practice lap times

RASCAR drivers compared practice times at Kansas with the fixed fast setup, mostly in the 31 to 32 second range, while Mark Seery joked about running 27s. They discussed handling, with some finding the car loose on entry and most agreeing it pushed badly off line. The thread also included banter about tyre management and the two-spin rule.

What kind of speeds are you guys seeing with fast setups at Kansas. I am laying down 31's to 32's on average with my best lap being 31.600. grub
Yep, about 31's and 32's here as well. Steve "grub" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > What kind of speeds are you guys seeing with fast setups at Kansas. I am > laying down 31's to 32's on average with my best lap being 31.600. > grub > > >

Uh oh. Looks like everyones times are going to be close. This makes for either great racing or quick wreckin. Or both. grub

I haven't noticed it being loose on entry. Are you guys that are getting a loose condition backing totally off of the throttle? I will agree 100% with the push if you don't hit your marks and stay on the line. It pushes like a dump truck. If we get some long green runs tire management will be big and I suck at that. Kyle
