This is my setup from the Australian nationals. Outdoor tarmack track. Quite open but with three hairpins, a little bumpy in two places but otherwise smooth. The car handled really well compared to the others on the track and back to back with my previous car. It was a little loose at the rear on turn in and then pushed on exit if you didn't get the line right, but this generally happened at higher speeds than normal cars, so how could I complain?
