Q: How do I adapt my braking and turn-in for off-camber corners?
Q: “How do I adjust my optimal turn-in and braking for an off-camber corner to minimize understeer?”
Q: How do I adapt my driving from a solid-axle car to one with independent rear suspension?
Q: “I’ve really been enjoying the No Dumb Questions podcasts and I finally have a dumb question that seems interesting enough to ask. Is there a big difference between driving an IRS (independent rear suspension) car versus a solid-axle car other than the lack...
Q: How do I adapt to a new (rear-engined) car?
Q: “I’ve recently bought a 991 Carrera after owning (and tracking) a 1999 Porsche Boxster for 6 years at various PCA DE events. In light of the obvious bump in horsepower and the different placement of the engine, I was wondering if you had any tips on how to approach taking the 991 out on track coming from the Boxster.”
Q: How do I adapt to driving a Porsche GT3 from a BMW M4?
Q: “I’ve recently switched from a BMW M4 to Porsche GT3, and I’m struggling to adapt. Any tips or recommendations? I’m 2-3 seconds slower in the GT3, which makes zero sense. I’m guessing the corner entry (off brake and turn in) phase is killing me, but I could also be slow to get to WOT (different on rear engine?).”
Q: How do I adjust my suspension & driving to reduce understeer?
Q: “How does the Bump/Rebound/Spring Ratio settings in the rear suspension affect a cars handling? I’m driving a FVee with zero roll suspension. So I don’t know how the suspension basics differs from a more conventional suspension. My main struggle with this car is that it turns in well, but mid-corner when I try to get back on the throttle it understeers a lot, so I end up having to release/accelerate a few times during the corner to get the car to the line I want. A few times I managed to get the car in the perfect mini-drift that rotated the car just enough to be able to get on throttle and exit cleanly. But it wasn’t easy to replicate. So how much of this can I improve with my driving and how? And what can I do with the setting to help out?”
