THE "SWEET" SPOT
Greeners:
My car is far from the 'sweet spot'. Yes it's stupidly quick but I know need to spend on brakes suspension etc before I get anywhere near!
Driving well sorted standard cars like Gallardo's, F430, RS4 etc gives you an idea of how far you have to go. But as has already been stated, all of these elusive 'spots' are going to be different and one mans rubbish is another mans gold................
This debate could run and run but rarely will you get two people who agree. :drinking: :xmastree:
john_o:
sweet spot for me is a question of balance......
Handling,levels of grip,power delivery (not juts outright hp),progressive braking etc
The Mk5 can easily handle >300bhp imho, without any downsides (lag etc) [Ed30 K04] , with a good spread of delivery
the problem is that the suspension/brakes and grip arent!
As tony has said I reckon remapped ED30 with brakes/suspension and LSD = the sweet spot
Hurdy I reckon youre about £1500 off the spot :happy2:

I am closer to finding Mrs Top cats G spot than i am to finding the cars sweet spot. :confused:

....Then in fact you are doing very well! Many women say that most men don't have a clue!
