Pod racing
#12

We ran a Sideways Group 5 classic 2019 and again in 2020.  My Capri was easily leading the field with body locked down and lots of pod movement.  But them we had a couple of very good analogue racers visit us and they loosened the body and reduced the slack in the pod so everything is between 1/2 and a full turn off of tight. It shaved about 3 tenths off my 7 second lap time.

This is digital on SPORT track with lots of variable radii turns from hairpins to sweeping R4s.

Of course everybody else copied the setup and we were back where we started in terms of speed relative to each other.

Cracking cars the Sideways Capris. Very easy to drive fast.
