Loose throughout turns
Okay. Here's a recent problem that has developed with my TC3.
When I am turning (usually comingo ut of turns is where I notice it the most) the rear end wants to come around.
Here is how the car is set up (smooth asphalt track, medium traction):
front:
0 toe in
1 deg neg. camber
camber link top inside hole
gold springs, 5mm preload
40wt oil
top of shock in middle hole
4mm ride height
back:
stock toe in block
1 deg neg camber
camber link top inside hole, outer hole on hub carrier
silver springs, 5mm preload
40wt oil
top of shock in middle hole
4mm ride height
2400 batteries, stock motor
Using Sorex 24R tires w/ HPI red inserts all the way around (which usually works well at this track)
I first tried just getting on the throttle easier, but I was getting smoked out of the turns.
The above setup was what I started with. I changed the following to try to fix the problem (tried one at a time):
1. put top of rear shocks in outer hole
2. added preload to front shocks
3. changed oil to 45wt in front
When I finally got the car to keep the rear end in place, it pushed so much I couldn't get it to turn in. I went back to the setup listed above so I can start making changes again (hopefully the correct ones this time). Any suggestions?
