Originally posted by nick34:1500 is abit low.. actually vary from instructor to instructor, but according to BBDC instructors nowadays is around 2000 - 2500..
Some tips on circuit trainings
Slope : Instructor will ask you to stop on a slope and ask you to move off from slope.
Method : Rev your RPM to 1500 rpm with handbrake applied. keep your rpm at 1500rpm and slowly release your clutch. You will feel that your bonnet actually rises and RPM dropped. Keep your legs in that position and release your handbrake. Once the car move, accelerate and move off from the slope

icic but i guess it's fine as long as the engine dont stalk. ya it vary from instructor to instructor. Most training cars i drove that time was running on high idling RPM .. wont stalk that easily .. so whats the idling speed now ?Originally posted by nightsky87:1500 is abit low.. actually vary from instructor to instructor, but according to BBDC instructors nowadays is around 2000 - 2500..

Aiyo, he is asking for idling speed... 800 rpm should be correct when engine is idling. 1800 to 2000, i think the car got launch controller......hahaOriginally posted by ahduck:800?? impossible.. 1800 to 2000 maybe...

Hmm... i think we shld leave the rpm to them~ let them try out themselves or listen to what his instructor got to say~ Its all about feelings isn't it? heheOriginally posted by Itachi:Hello experienced drivers out there.. hmm, is there anymore tips we(me and alba) can take note of??? so that we can take as little lessons as possible.. hahaha..
Hmm... oh yes there's one~ ASK!!!! Ask whatever things u dunno immediately~ dun act garang! scare of one thing and tries to aviod is one very wrong thing to do! ASK ANYTHING IMMEDIATELY!!!! Even if ur instructor scream until like the whole car is falling apart(I've met one b4), juz ask whatever u dunno~Originally posted by Itachi:Hello experienced drivers out there.. hmm, is there anymore tips we(me and alba) can take note of??? so that we can take as little lessons as possible.. hahaha..
