Alignment setup na1

Yea that might work for cold temperatures on a track day but not quite as high as you might want for the street. Not all that far off though from the usual 33 psi (2.3 bar) in front. Seems like a lot of people tend to run lower than the sticker-value of 40 psi (2.8 bar) in the rear.

I followed the suggestion of my tire specialist on that. The Federal 595 RS-r have kinda stiff side walls, that's why he suggested lower than normal pressure values. I did not change the tire pressure before and after the alignment and it was driving perfectly before even the alignment was totally off in the rear.

My reading comprehension isn't very good when I'm tired. And now I'm jealous of your roads, cars, and licensing structure. And as a whole your country has better roads than ours.

Why licensing structure? We have big and ugly license plates of which we need to have two on the car (front and back). The NSX costs so much tax a year that I could probably insure 5 of it in another country.

Put your car in a container and ship it over here. I am happy to show you around :D

I don't know exactly but there are over 1000 questions for the theoretical part of which you need to answer around 80. 80% must be correct to pass.
After that is a practical exam which normally takes around 30 minutes including extra challenges like braking, parking and cornering.

6 to 12 month after that you need to attend a 1 day long drivers training and another lesson with a driving coach at the driving school. If you don't do that you loose your license! This is actually a part I really like. That drivers training should be mandatory for everyone on the streets at least once every 5 years.

Prior to the exams are 10 or 12 (i can't remember) 1.5 hour driving lessons with an instructor and around 14 hours of theoretical class.

That's the way it is if you get your license with age of 18.
There is a possibility to get the license with age of 17 which requires to drive with your parents 3000km after you have passed the driving lessons at the driving school. So you basically start with age of 16 to get it when you turn 17 (which is what I did)

That only is for Class B vehicles which are cars/trucks with less than 3.5tons. Motorcycle, heavy trucks, trailer means you have to do more or less the same. If you combine it and do it at once its easier because some stuff obviously applies to all vehicles like the "give way" rules and that you are not allowed to speed :D

Costwise its really expensive. Class B (cars) license costs at least 1000 Euros. Motorbike (class A) around 800 Euros. Trucks (E) also in the 1000 Euro range. Heavy Trailer (C) is pretty cheap with "only" 400 Euros but you have to have Class B or E before.

All that does not stop people from driving totally stupid though
