Fat500 - thanks for the set up tips, I will try them.

I am still trying to understand the different adjustments and what the effects are. So if someone has the time, please define these adjustments and effects.

I am new to pan cars and having a problem finding tuning tips on the F104. I raced this weekend and I was totally lost on what adjustments to use to correct the problems I was having, Example - end of straight into sweeper I experienced a serious push among other things. I was hoping someone could give me the basics regarding the effect on some of the adjustments available.

1) Shock adjustment - tighter vs looser
2) Damper - tighter vs looser
3) Front Springs - Silver vs Gold vs Black
4) Rear Ride Height - Lower vs Higher
5) Camber - 1 towards rear vs 2 towards rear
6) T Bar - Stock vs Soft Option
7) T bar - Pivot joint loose vs tight
8) Shock Oil - heavier vs lighter weight
