ABS SETTING

The current ABS map the car is running. 12 positions are available but only 10 maps exist. Position 1 has the least intervention/
support while position 10 has the most support. Position 10 is the same as position 11 and position 0 disables the ABS 
completely. Position 4 is the recommended baseline setting. More intervention reduces the possibility of and the duration of 
lockups during braking but can result in longer braking distances if the system is set overly aggressive for the amount of available 
grip. 

ENGINE MAP SETTING

The fuel map on which the car is currently running. Position 4 is the base map and produces maximum power but the most fuel 
usage. Positions 3 through 2 are for fuel saving under green flag conditions and will reduce engine power output correspondingly. 
The lower the number the better the fuel economy but the lower the power output. Positions 1 and 0 are for saving fuel under 
safety car conditions and are not recommended for normal usage. 

FRONT CORNERS

CORNER WEIGHT

The weight underneath each tire under static conditions in the garage. Correct weight arrangement around the car is crucial for 
optimizing a car for a given track and conditions. Individual wheel weight adjustments and crossweight adjustments are made via 
the spring perch offset adjustments at each corner.

FRONT RIDE HEIGHT

Distance from ground to a reference point on the chassis. Since these values are measured to a specific reference point on the 
car, these values may not necessarily reflect the vehicle’s ground clearance, but instead provide a reliable value for the height of 
the car off of the race track at static values. Adjusting Ride Heights is key for optimum performance, as they can directly influence 
the vehicle’s aerodynamic performance as well as mechanical grip. Increasing front ride height will decrease front downforce 
as well as decrease overall downforce, but will allow for more weight transfer across the front axle when cornering. Conversely, 
reducing ride height will increase front and overall downforce, but reduce the weight transfer across the front axle. Minimum legal 
front ride height is 50.0 mm.

SPRING PERCH OFFSET

Used to adjust the ride height at this corner of the car by changing the installed position of the spring. Increasing the spring perch 
offset will result in lowering this corner of the car while reducing the spring perch offset will raise this corner of the car. These 
changes should be kept symmetrical across the axle (left to right) to ensure the same corner ride heights and no change in cross 
weight. The spring perch offsets can also be used in diagonal pairs (LF to RR and RF to LR) to change the static cross weight in 
the car.
