Some answers
Hi again,
sorry, I made a mistake.
Surely the Bridgestone tires for NSX-R are the RE070's.
Mr. Severich was one of the drivers of the Altschach NSX (ex Kremer NSX) of the last year. He only was 3 seconds slower that Armin Hahne at the northern loop.
Mr. Altschach (the team-manager) used old Tecnomagnesio rims. The same ones Kremer used in LeMans in year 1994.
These rims should be checked after each race, after a season they have to be tested with X-ray and after 5 years using,
they must be throw away. (End of maturity date)
All of this never happened......
Thats the reason why all these rims collapsed last year,
a wonder that no pilote was hurt.
Before the 24h race project at last year, Altschach bought new rims (ATS DTM 18''), but these rims dont fit exactly with the centreboring.
They fly away again in practice and Mr. Altschach retired the NSX from the race.............. a real story...... and a shame.
NSX-R
Soft driving means that all around the suspension (only dampers system and swaybars are changed) is HONDA standard (OEM)
A lot of loading per wheel will stress the complete suspension system. The drivers have to be very careful if the car should
survive the 24h torture.
That means to avoid most of the curbs. (Round style driving)
It exists a parts list from HONDA R&D, where all parts are listed, Mr.Severich shouldnt change.
If he would do that all the same.....he would have the joker if something would happen during the race.
My NSX (powered by DaliRacing)
Since now I dont feel able to update my best laptime, because
I have too many projects and no time to prepare my NSX.
But the new parts package with alot of cf goodies and a better
brake system I'll install next wintertime.
So next year I should be able to try it again.
The car is getting better and better, but the driver is getting older.......
All lap times under 8.00 minutes with Honda NSX and standard tires are a case for professional drivers.
Surely I'm not this man.
Nevertheless I finished 3 times at the 24h race with my Honda and got some nice class victories at the Veedol Langstreckenpokal.
