BASIC TUNNING

Springs:

 

By using a softer spring you will have more sag, more chassis 

roll/lean,  more  dive  and  a  less  responsive  car  this  might  be 

better on low-grip surfaces; by using a harder spring you have 

less sag, less body lean, less dive and a more responsive car. 

What to apply depends on driving style and grip-level surface. 

This is more suitable on high-grip surfaces.

Shock-angle:

 

The  angle  at  which  the  shocks  are  mounted 

create  a  different  suspension  feel;  the  more 

vertical, the harder it feels, the more horizontal, 

the softer it feels. 

Oil:

 

shockabsorber. Thinner oil will be softer, with slower response, 

thicker oil will be harder dampening with faster reponse. The 

more or less holes, which is an optional. 

Differential:

 

You  can  make  the  gear  differential  harder  or 

softer by using a different oil viscosity.  Lighter 

oil  will  create  a  looser  diff  which  increases 

rear  traction  on  acceleration,  but  also  more

decreases  rear  traction  on  acceleration,  but 

also more on-throttle steering.

Front anti-roll bar:

By using  a  softer anti-roll bar you will have more sag, 

more chassis roll/lean, more dive and a less responsive 

car.  But  you  will  have  more  steering  once  you  have 

entered the corner.

Rear anti-roll bar:

B

y  using  a  softer  anti-roll  bar  you  will 

have more sag, more chassis roll/lean, 

more dive and a less responsive car. But 

you will have more rear traction  and a 

more stable car. 

Front toe adjustment: 

Adjusted  with  the  track-rods,  make 

longer or shorter. More toe-in will create 

more steering, but less stability; toe-out 

will create a more stabile car, with less 

steering.

Rear toe adjustment: 

Adjusted with suspension blocks (optional).

More toe-in will create more  traction, more stability, but 

less speed.

Less toe in will create a less stabile car, with less traction 

but higher speed.
