WEEK 5 PERFORMANCE GUIDE
This week we arrive at Watkins Glen and Kyalami. Two fast and flowing circuits known for their high speed and technical corners. Kyalami, located in South Africa is 4.5 Km Long (2.8 miles) with 16 tough corners. You need a car that is well balanced and that can perform well at high speed cornering, as this is not a track for an unstable car! Our set ups have been created with this in mind and will help you improve your lap times!
Watkins Glen provides a blend of high speed straights with technical corners through elevation. The most challenging part of the circuit is that Esses at turns 5, 6 and 7 where precise steering inputs are required. This is to ensure that the car is not unsettled, but also so that you don’t run wide, as track limits are tough here. It’s an exciting challenge for any driver! You can see our performance in the table below!
