Can someone explain the handling differences between thin vs. thick dampening fluid in the tubes?
Thanks.
thicker lube in the tubes will increase your front traction.i generally try to set my car up by generating as much front traction as i can through setup with minimal rear dampening. i mostly run asphalt and when i cant get enough front bite,the car will double steer on power and be very edgy.by using oil in tubes or on washers will slow the reaction time of the T plate or side springs(depending on the car) enabling the front end to stay planted and not unload.the trick is to try to stick the front as much as possible and the car will be smoothe and react very quickly with minimal tire wear.
hey adrian,check it out bro.test and tune time brutha.yours will be there tommorow.
