Second, lower the damping to be around 0.35 - 0.40 Is b) going to be more progressive when he rear tyres start to slip, because the back tyres are larger but less efficiently utilized?įirst, lower the spring rates and have it lower by at least 10% in the front Has anyone got any tips, or got any good handling Beam caes i can download to learn what i should emulate?Īre the motoring press just talking a load of nonsense ?ĭoes the simulation differentiate between grip that comes from tyre width versus suspension setting ?Ī) one has similar tyre widths front and back, similar suspension settingsī) the other has wider rear tyres, but stiff rear sway bar and lots of front camber to bring the handling back to neutral In the current build, the only time we get something other than terminal understeer is when braking from high speed on certain (bumpy) parts of the track, i’ve lost the car a few times under braking, but it’s always the same corners - smoother parts of the circuit are fine.
Accelerating just makes the nose push wide too, unless you’re in first gear, the back end can break away near peak torque and usually i’m not quick enough to catch it.Īn early version of the car did not have the massive rear wing, it would experience wheelspin above 120mph going in a straight line. The above vehicle does not have lift off oversteer and usually understeers under braking, despite trying to shift brake balance to the rear.
