Wow that Altis GR so fast and unaffected by cross wind huh? First time see this gen Altis 1.8 drive so fast, usually they drive middle lane slow slow because of weak engine...

tall car problem. actually, if u drive low centre of gravity vehicle also, u will met this crosswind, but only if u drive very high speed.

but this pickup truck looks like got strong crosswind even not driving that fast. so weak. so easily lifting.

few ways to reduce "crosswind sway left right?" for myvi g3:
-upgrade KYB performance absorber/shocks (cheapest way)
-install roll bar / strut bar (abit pricy)
-upgrade bigger rim and lower profile tyre (veli pricy)

btw is reduce ya, not eliminate.
*
will go for rim tyre. finish soon
while absorber use until spoil. no wastage

Oh I think you have misunderstood my post. What I am saying is, in ktek video, even I myself cannot determine exactly when did the crosswind occur. Just before the 50s mark, it appears that ktek was going very close to the divider but whether it was the crosswind or ktek unknowingly turned the steering, only he would know.

It appears to be windy too, as some palm fronds appears to moving in 1:00s on the left at the top of the hill. Looks like it's a headwind judging the direction the fronds were facing. Even then it's very hard to predict the direction as the wind blows wherever it wishes, since ktek mentioned blown to the right and then to the left.

Ktek, how fast were you going exactly ? Seems like the Altis and you were overtaking everyone. Even the Alphard decided to go into the middle lane at the beginning, when such vehicle usually occupy the fast lane only.

im not sure about the "crosswind" term from ts.
is the "crosswind?" that cause the car to sway when overtaking/kena overtake by lorries/bus or the "crosswind?" that cause the car to loose control lost tyre grip?

i dont know about you but the upgrades i mentioned does significantly reduce the "crosswind?"

also you mentioned "Don't even improve track time attack given a well establish racing driver."
hmmmmmm......

Interesting ain't it ? The wind speed must be very high to be able to pick up things and twirl them in the air like it was nothing. I wonder what's it speed. Like this can consider crosswind onot ?

when the air becomes very unstable, with winds at different altitudes blowing in different directions or at different speeds—a condition called wind shear.
