| Re: Front suspension settings and upgrades Hi Chris,
Interesting reading how your car is handling. If it is OK can you tell me what your setup figures are, front and rear and what tyres you are running.
I have found from doing sprint events here in WA that I am getting quite a bit of front end push. I am running the car pretty hard albeit on sumitomo htrz11 street tyres running around Barbagallo in 59.5sec laps (about 2 sec of R spec tyred Porsche GT3's)
I am running
(Rear) 3deg castor, -1 deg camber, 3mm total toe in & 450# springs, no ARB.
(Front) 6deg castor, -1.5 deg camber and 1mm toe in, 400# springs @ 26mm ARB.
Front tyres are still scrubbing too much on outer shoulders so am fitting Jim Cowdens lower wishbones at the front to increase camber to -3+ deg. so the tyre is better used.
I have used the analagy that if I can get the balance pretty right on street tyres, then when I change to R specs the balance should stay but grip levels incease considerably.
Maybe Ross can chime in with his setup if it's not too much of a secret.
I am not after sheep stations, but want to get the satisfaction of getting personal pleasure of better lap times.
