TR 2000 class on 2006 said:
"It was great to get another pole and to be
honest when the flag dropped at the start of the race I didn't look
back. The car ran well, J.C. my engineer got it so right with the set-up
of the car for the race and I picked up fastest lap as well."

TR 2.0/1.6: Buttonwillow summary, champions crowned
Driving a car is a dynamic exercise which is
not limited to the physics controlling simple motions. Yes, you can
brake, accelerate and turn. You can also brake and turn at the same time
or accelerate and turn at the same time. More importantly, you can brake
a lot and turn a little or brake a little and turn a lot. The entire
road-holding capability decreases as speed increases. As it nears its
limits, the car becomes more sensitive to smoothness. The physics of
motion are disadvantageously loading the suspension. If tire adhesion is
the glue that holds the car to the road, smoothness is its applicator.
Driving style should always be regarded as
another factor in setup. One should put forth a lot of analysis into
what attributes his or her driving style requires. Through careful
understanding of this, one can quickly discern which direction a setup
must go in order to accommodate the drivers’ particular style.
Every setup is like a meticulously tailored
suit; while it works great for one driver, it can be totally
counterproductive to another. With this in mind, one should understand
that when trying another’s setup, instant speed is not always the case.
In fact, many times it’s the exact opposite. In this case, the setup
itself is not poor, it’s just missing the technique required to maximize
its capabilities. Still, by understanding the contents of this guide, a
driver should be able to quickly identify the setup characteristics and
make adjustments attempting to shift the effectiveness towards a more
positive result.

easily understood. We want to get from point “A” to point “B” quicker,

goals.
