    Sounds like the infamous ice mode kicking in. When I had my 2016 BRZ and had a race instructor on board who did the Continental series. we both had it trigger on midcorner trail braking ( I asked him for braking tips ). it always happened mid corner if any trail braking was applied (power cut timing even with gas pedal to floor)

    02:45 Yes and no, some had it some did not, i had a 1989 NA (one of the first ones and that did not have ABS). NB same story some do some do not. From NC forward ABS & TCS is standard :) Great video love your driving.

    • @dadhats
      @dadhats  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      gotcha! I figured that was the case and assumed that's why he was braking conservatively in t1.

      @ItsTheNada 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      My NB has no ABS. I also ease into hard stops on and off track. I found out one day just checking out my stopping distance. Went tail happy. Adjusted the bias and now the fishtail mostly gone. Still stuck in my brain tho lol

    Nice driving Eric! I see no reason why you should not be running in the advanced group. I noticed you picked up on the Miata driver holding the turn 1 outside curbing longer. Widen that entry into turn 2 as much as possible.

    Good vid, I know you were keen on the comparison with the Miata (MX5 here in Australia) but is that a black 2022 BRZ/GR86 @ 0:29 (Can't make out the badge)? If so, I thought you may have been keen to have a run with them and compare your modified Gen 1 vs the Gen 2?

    No abs for most , if its full racecar, it wont have abs even if it came with it. His early braking could just be not being used to no ABS cause i usually can get in on the brakes pretty hard with no lock up

    • @dadhats
      @dadhats  ปีที่แล้ว

      it's decent but it really depends on the layout. you know which one you'd be running? I have a feeling you wouldn't be running north/south course like I have in my videos.

  • @Slowcarfastbeans
    @Slowcarfastbeans ปีที่แล้ว +2

    That miata probably only uses the brakes thrice per lap - T1, T5 and T8, and flat out otherwise with maybe a lift in a couple spots.

    • @dadhats
      @dadhats  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      that's wild you're probably right. now that I think about it that might be true for me too 🤔 maybe with the addition of t6?

  • @alexslazer8627
    @alexslazer8627 ปีที่แล้ว

    Trying to learn so this is just a thought. It looks like you might benefit from going slower into some of those corners that the Miata’s can just rail, so that you can pick up more exit speed with that extra hp. Again I’m learning but lmk what you think

    • @dadhats
      @dadhats  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      could be the case. in general I have a habit of prioritizing minimum speed over exit speed.
      at this track I was mostly just learning since it was my first time out there. I'd say I was a good second/second and half off pace what I could do with more practice

    I’d be surprised if it was truly 120 hp. It may be more like around 140 hp or so if it’s a 1.8. I have a 2001 with ITBs and it’s around that power. Mine is a Base model and did not come with ABS.
