So i searched around and couldnt find a post to what i was looking for. I would like to know for roads that are curved a little bit how fast could you go before loosing control. I dont want to go out and test it, i am just curious so i know when i should slow down or not.( i know that sounds kinda stupid but i wanna know the max) I noticed the other thread which was "How Fast have you gone", this can be similar in a way except i was wondering about roads that are like these (dont pay attention to how the road opens up and becomes staright toward the end just imagine if the road was eactly like that in the front with alittle curve):

just wondering what the Z can really handle also for corner too. whenever i am going a little fast i am afraid that the car might slide or drift and then i would loose control

thanks

 

Might want to post a link that works.

But to answer your question... It's a question that cannot be answered in this forum. Different drivers have different skill levels. It's about as pointless as the "how much do you pay for insurance" threads.

 

There are so many variables involved as to make this question completely unanswerable.

Tires
Road surface
Angle
Bank
Driver ability

etc.

 

^ Agreed.

Giving you an arbitrary number will not answer your question.

It will depend largely on road conditions, suspension settings, tyre-wear and how you take the corner.

 

ahh sorry about the link it was working before..

hmm well what can i do to become a more skilled driver then in order to know what to do in these kind of situations...

im just a cautious driver

 

Go do some autox's...

 

the kind of roads im talking about are anywhere from 20 -50 degrees

 

is that some type of coarse or area you can test your car out at?

sorry kinda new to these things ahah

 

Is track nearby? Perhaps you can go with some friends.

Practice in a safe environment and you will soon find out the limits of the car and you.

 

Really?...are we serious?

 

I would say 120 easy...probably 140 but you want to be on the safe side.



now get out there and give it a try. Let us know how it flips,errr i mean, turns out for ya.

 

You first, then let us all know!

 

88 mph. Then all hell breaks loose.

 

Find a local track to test out the limits of the car. Please dont do it on public roads. Especially since you sound like you just recently acquired your license.

Where are you from?

I typically enter every corner no more than 126 – 132. Advising him 140 mph is reckless. You should receive a temporary ban……

www.scca.com or go to an HPDE event and find out for yourself while in a nice controlled enviorment. There are plenty of tracks in the US , you should put your state/maybe even city and we can better help you find one.

 

no i had been driving a differnt type of car before i could afford this kind of car (honda and volvo)

when i first test drove that car it was something wayyyy diifferent ahah

well thanks for some of the useful help like track and not idiots that ask me to tell them when the car flips..

hmm maybe a professional driver? lol

 

oh and of course i dont do it when there are other cars around it was empty road..
