I agree Greg, I'll add driving skill and at what level you are pushing the car. Since you are older and more experienced, I see you as a more patient racer that doesn't abuse the tires. I would think you could get by with an A6 more easily than a 10/10ths guy or one with poor chassis balance. For me, it would be what gives me the best consistency over five, twenty minute sessions. |
I'm learning patience Todd...
Your statement about the difference of 10/10ths vs the way I'm running is a major factor. I want more, or as much, grip as I can get - without driving at 10/10ths.
The brake rotor temps are another "tell"... he shoots the temps when I come in so we have a basis to tell us where the brakes are - not only the bias front to rear - but the temp overall. I'm not using a lot of brake - because I'm not pushing the car that hard in to the corner - so the temps are rather "cool" relative to what the pad that was on the car wants to see. That pad wants higher temps to work. Well - I don't drive to that pads characteristics --- so we'll put in a pad that operates where I'm at.
Basically - I think I drive more like a Miata... or maybe a Buick.... IDK LOL
