This Guy Did!
“I did Startos 9HP training session. One word: Awesome! We did 4 hrs session. about 200 laps. Exhausted but happy! Worth any penny! It was fun. Recommended, totally!!! I did uptown 27.48sec. totaly different driving characteristic. If you go slow you will get a lot of under-steering! Very good breaking power. I used my gadget to measure the G force: 1.34G at corners! You cannot get this even by Viper (Except toyota, of course).
- Max acceleration 0.77G
- Max Breaking: 0.88G
No damage! Every one drove well.
When you get used to it, then you can go fast. Really fast for this track! I could manage to lift rear right wheel off the ground when we where doing up-town backward! Cool.
I hope to see you tomorrow.
Cheers,
Shervin…….”
