First time on r comps.
The front end is chattering in the corner, get on the gas and it fixes it cant carry any entry speed because of it. Tires are BFG R1's, pressures to start are 30F 26 R, end of session 34F 33R. I took the rear spring rubbers out and lowered the rear. The ass end was all over the place, this helped a bunch and dropped 3 seconds off the lap time. Go up or down on pressure or what? You enter the corner, the car starts to push and the tires chatter, skip, gas pedal pedal helps it. All input welcome. My new best is 2:02 at NOLA. |

You're on Strano springs, right? Seems like you need a bigger rear bar or stiffer rear springs to balance the handling. I think your problem is you're making the front of the car work too hard, taking too much weight off the inside front tire. I was on Strano springs and Strano bars. Perfectly balanced handling. Also, are you trail braking at all? Maybe you need to keep more weight up front for turn in.
What kind of job are you starting? This post has been edited by Steve91T: Dec 3 2013, 05:06 PM |

I had the 22mm rear bar on it, you could not get on the gas at all unless the car was straight with it. Even with the 19 bar it does not, just not as bad. More weight on the front makes it worse, gas pedal or opening the wheel makes it go away. You have a PM on the job. |

I had the same problem with lighting up the inside tire, once I went to track tires, it was unreal how early I could get in the power. I'd be willing to be a beer that with track tires and the big rear bar, you'll be happy. |

I think my rear diff is worn out. |
