It's for trophy race traction. The Lightning f was 100k
These cars are narrower by scale the objective is to stop traction rolling by making it stiffer it makes it harder for the inner rear wheel to lift and therefor traction roll
It should also be noted that I applied ca to the edge of the front tires (more the top of the sidewall) to help prevent traction rolling.
This is a high traction setup so if you have super low traction it won't work as well
