hell no. I am interested with the drivings itself. Defensive Driving Course isn't cheap in Malaysia and often only those privileged ones get to attend it (BMW, Mercedes, Porsche owners)

Haiz.. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Sadly I missed it QUOTE(The_FQ400 @ Feb 20 2012, 08:52 PM) dunno.. mine a bit different... starting like 6.2l/100km then slowly go up till 8.5l/100km then now 5000km++ drop back to 7.0 Hmmm I always reset my meter everytime i fuel up.. Reset everything then start going.. QUOTE(VincentChen @ Feb 20 2012, 08:52 PM) so grounding got help? haha.. Normal lah.. U race its ok.. Its also got to do with no mods in ur car.. U never change anything.. So when u try to stress ur car for more power u ended up using more petrol but not getting the additional performance.. For example like mine the hotbits helps my mid end torque between 2.3k-3.2k RPM.. So between that whenever i accelerate, i have more torque than u and im able to reach my desired speed faster than u can.. So i end up accelerating for a lesser duration and spend more time cruising.. Now u know why mods are important?i think u more interested in the samsung galaxy tab right Added on February 20, 2012, 8:54 pm i just now go out 1round, since my friend just got his new car then ajak me race(obviously he bullying me), then my FC from 8.3 go to 8.6 |

QUOTE(The_FQ400 @ Feb 20 2012, 09:04 PM) LOL.. i found out that changing gears too early are not fuel efficient too.. I previously change gear very early.. like 2.2krpm or sometimes even just at 2k rpm.. But then i found out accelerating to 2.5-2.8k rpm and change gear is even better.. stick to 2.5k rpm for the next few days and see if got improvement in FC.. And pump tire harder too.. my front is at 235kpa.. Back 205kpa. I tried back at 215kpa.. Too hard.. and no grip.. 205kpa is good enough.. front 235kpa give the best steering feedback.. i tried 225 and 230kpa b4.. but i feel that 235kpa more comfortable. |
