Not sure. Basically, you don't experience that type of movement on the track because the course is smooth as glass. British B Roads are extremely bumpy and have tons and tons of camber so all cars are quite busy when you drive on them. Watch the video and see how much he is bouncing around when on camera. It could be my car and perhaps I had my rear dampers set too stiff or the 11kg spring is just too much. I notice that most other street based kits for the FD run a 10kg/8kg setup and the Ohlins are 11kg/11kg.

See my alignment settings below and tell me what you think. It's pretty aggressive up front at about -1.9 degrees of camber in the front (photo is in degrees and minutes for interpretation), and my rear is also pretty aggressive at about -1.5 degrees of camber and a material amount of toe in to somewhat reduce low speed oversteer.

Having said all of that, the Evora is really really really planted in the rear. That's partly due to the weight but it's also just the chassis is better than the FD. A completely different proposition being entirely glued aluminium structure and 25 years more modern than the FD. I think you could take that car rallying and the rear would feel planted and amazing. So, he is coming from a much higher base with his daily driver than the FD as a handling powerhouse.

He still talks to me about my car though. He really enjoyed it and I think he might be looking at them now as another toy.

 

I don't have the expertise to weigh in about your alignment setup – my FD has a stock alignment on Eibach springs with Koni Sports all around. Someone else with more track experience will be more helpful. Most of the local tracks are a bit bumpy and I have no aero (base model), so I've left the car mostly the same as the previous driver (a time attack champion and race instructor) had it. The roads in the Toronto area are mostly flat and straight, becoming a bit more interesting if you drive into the surrounding countryside.

I'd love to take a drive in a modern sports car, but I'll always love my FD because it is my dream car. The car's previous owner took me on a ride in his Porsche Cayman on the track, which was a lot of fun.

It would be great if Jay got into one of the Japanese classics. I was hoping to see some more JDM action ever since he and Lawrie picked up the MR2. I've been watching Jay's videos since before he started the channel, because I've always loved Lotus cars.

 

Here's another drive on track:

 

^That makes me think about setting up the FD for some trackdays.

 

Thanks for the update and the link. Love the new vid with the FD on the track. Thats a place the FD really shines.
