Car building

Yeah A class I dont have much problems building one of those to compete with.
But I know I also dont build my cars like the top LB times do. I try to keep them stable,I’ll also use them online too. Im not a consistent racer so I build that way. And with that I usually run B and C class online. Im not into the super fast races.

I just noticed. Are you running widest front tire widths?

Normally that would be a yes but as of late I have been toying with different ways to build.
So for C class what I have been doing on some is
-1st see if I can get the 5.7 w/centri SC
-Then weight reduction with race suspension
-After that I go to tires and look at what type of track Im gonna run it on then do tires depending on that. So for momentum style I’ll put on whatever tire size keeps around 4.5-4.6 handling. I dont really like running to much under that in c class since I dont control them well
-Then its just the usual,race diff,ARB’s then just all the power adders that also reduce weight.

But for the tires I run whatever I feel the car needs,if I can get away with smaller I do. Ex I built a C class 60 Vette and its running stock compound and stock size and it handles really well full weight reduction…I think. For the Camaro,Monte and such I’d have to look,made too many changes to remember what I have on it now.

I think its a B class 90 IROC that seems to run pretty well,just hate if it has to go into 4th.

So out of this Ive learned it more the cars ability and style and not something I was doing wrong from the way this post seems to be going.

Don’t worry about the handling stat. It’s not always right. I’ve built 3.8 and 4.0 handling cars that handled waaaaay better than it should be.

I just would use front tire width sparingly. Usually the PI hit is enough to where other options like roll cage plus high aero settings may be better.

Yeah ive been learning that.
I use it as a starting point then start down grading until it feels right

I actually do it in the reverse direction…IF, I REALLY need it. Start at min tired width on front for E-thru-A, then, upgrade if required on a GRIP track.
