F55/F56 F56 autox
F56 autox
I don't see anyone post F56 autox in youtube, borrowed my wife's car and did a autox with MSNE.
CAR - stock Cooper with AT, use sport model with manual shift (keep in 2nd all the time), traction control off.
DRIVE - never drove a FWD car on a autox. cold tire pressure setup to F-40/R-38 cold, never had a chance to adjust because the thunder storm started from 2nd run.
FEELing - I didnt drive fast enough, it would cause a lot understeer. suspension is a bit soft, i have to slow down during the slalom, otherwise it will be unbalanced and lost control or understeer easily. The most different feeling between FWD and RWD is the turn, I braked in the turn to rotate the car, and it turn out real well, the end was loose and want to oversteer. Overall, it performs better than I expected, and I think the rain may help loose the rear end.

I marked the tires, the rear didn't roll much than the front, my 1st run was on dry road, but forgot to turn off the traction control, I guess the rain really help to rotate the car. Anyway, it was my 1st time and last time to take it to the autox.
