Thanks for taking the time to help us all out
I’ve updated Part 2 - General Tuning with regard to weight reduction and vintage sport tires.
TLDR:
Weight Reduction
Cars without full race weight reduction require lower tire pressure, lower camber & higher caster, stiffer ARBs and softer springs, higher anti-dive & lower anti-squat as well as higher accel & lower decel for best handling.
Vintage Sport Tires
Vintage race cars are equipped with vintage sport tires instead of regular sport tires. Vintage sport tires require lower tire pressure than regular sport tires.
Which one of these are you? Sometimes driving line needs adjustment. Watch rival challenges take notes. Learn from your replays. Race against your own ghost.
Some guides to help others as this helped me. Pass the knowledge forward.
Are your shocks difficult to dial in? Not sure what to adjust?
Another important thing to remember. Adjust one thing at a time, unless your experienced… give it like 5-10 laps, clean laps… Tires is what wins a race, take care of your tires and they’ll take care of you. Tires like smooth movements and not jerky movements. Smooth is fast! I’m sure I got a lot to learn, this will help you get started Atleast. see ya on the track and good luck.
