Bruce K Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 About time for a fresh WCM S2K Ultralite Super Seven trackday video! This brutal drive was recorded on Sunday 8/30/2014 at Waterford Raceway in Clarkston MI. The track is a short 1.5 miles including 9 turns. The run group was "Advanced" and included licensed SCCA/NASA pilots, experienced OTD drivers and track instructors. This group liked blue flags about as much as Snow White liked naps!

Bruce K Posted September 5, 2014 Author Share Posted September 5, 2014 How is the car handeling with suspension changes. hi, lorren. charlie from autoeurope's super seven sense was right on - the alignment gave me neutral handling, with just a tick of oversteer at the limit, which can be modulated with the throttle, a wrist flick or both. i have made mistakes, like hitting the "dragon's teeth" (like gator's teeth, but with cutouts) and a small pothole that lies just off the track pavement. I'm talking speeds of 80 to 100 mph, with some cornering force included. the car just skitches a couple inches and then settles right down. i have tried to compare this car to the other caterhams and loti i have owned and driven. the s2k roll center is lower than my supercharged lotus exige, and i can really feel that - the s2k handles better, plus it never pushes, which was how the exige dealt with corners it didn't like. my caterhams both had dedion rears. they were both fast and neutral, but the s2k feels better-planted, and is easier to control if overdriven. i'm super glad you responded, for another reason - on the waterford track day, i broke the hat that is bolted to the brake disc (fits over the studs, between the wheel and the upright). it is a wilwood part. from the passenger rear. the disc is exactly 12" and looks fine, but the top of the hat is broken all the way around. the hat flange is 7 1/2". the calipers are 2-pot wilwoods. the stud pattern is 5 x 100 mm. the hat is bolted to the brake disc with 8 bolts. there is a stamping in the hat: "KN3755". what are my wilwood part numbers? also could use any other parts that you can provide, for inclusion in the manual. thanks!
