The 'Ring

[Bill Pemberton]

Great comment, Flatout, as so true , any change of tire ( though we know the Corsas would be shaved ) would negate any run at Nurburgring or other tracks. Though I mentioned tires I have to admit I do not think of the TA as close to it's potential on a mid level DOT tire, but the logic is flawed as you pointed out , since they would jump on us if not using the factory tire. I did like the idea of a head to head someone mentioned with the same driver , same track, same day, same driver, as I have been convinced by others that the TA will likely surprise many in the coming months, years. Either way, lots of interesting thoughts and am looking forward to seeing TA on the track , and finding out the secrets to make it faster like we have found out over the years with our ACRs.

One thing you've failed to add into the equation is the Gen V's Xbrace, which would allow for better turn-in on some of the low-speed sections like the carousel.
Also, the TA has a track alignment, not sure how the ACR is set up with regards to camber, etc

Yes the structural rigidity additions would help. As for the track alignement, both cars are adjustable so any owner could set it up for whatever track alignment they would want, including a setup for the ring. If the factory setup is adjustable than you get to adjust it to your liking It's not our fault Chevy, Lambo, or Ferrari doesn't offer an adjustable platform, or only offers limited adjustments. It's a major reason why I chose to purchase an ACR over those other brands and platforms. 3 way adjustable factory shocks, and adjustable aero are factory features of an ACR.
