REAR WISHBONE SHOCK MOUNTING HOLE
The middle hole works best for most track conditions giving good
traction and drive through the turns whilst maintaining good stability
over the bumps. Moving to the outer hole on the wishbone will
decrease traction but will allow the rear to free up more in the turns.
This setting would usually only get used on high grip tracks and
when moving the shock out you may have to change the oil and
spring settings to get the same suspension feel. If the grip level is
low and the track is bumpy, try the inside hole with harder springs
and thicker oil. This should help improve the handling.
See Page 14 Bag D - Step 32
The middle hole on the wishbone is the standard setting for
most tracks. Moving the shock to the outer hole makes the car
more reactive and increases suspension stiffness. Using the
inner hole makes the car less reactive. This setting also
makes the front end softer. Changes to the springs and
dampers may be required for different mounting holes. Anti-roll
bars can also be changed to suit mounting position.
The second hole on the shock mount (2) gives best all round results.
Moving the shock to the inboard position increases on power steering
and reduces initial steering. Moving the shock to the outer holes will
stiffen the suspension, increasing initial steering and forward drive but
could cause the rear wheel lifting. Moving the shock to these holes may
require an oil or spring change to maintain the suspension performance.
REAR CAMBER
The usual team setting for static rear camber is between -1.0° and -1.5°
at ride height (the top of the tyre leaning inwards towards the car). If
more rear grip is required, increase camber to between -2.0° and -3.0°.
When racing on high grip dirt, with squarer profile tyres, use between
-0.80° and -1.0° rear camber to keep the contact patch consistent with
the surface.
See Page 06 Bag B - Step 13c
FRONT CAMBER
The usual team setting for static front camber is between -1.0° and -2.0°
negative at ride height (the top of the wheel is leaning inwards towards
the car). If more front grip is required, increase camber to between -2.0°
and -2.5°.
When racing on high grip dirt, with squarer profile tyres, use between
-0.80° and -1.0° front camber to keep the contact patch consistent with
the surface.
