To lower the roll center you would raise the inner camber link position and lower the front arm. You could also lower the outside camber link as well.
Lower
• More on-throttle steering.
• Car is less responsive.
• More weight transfer at front of car.
• Better on smooth, high grip tracks with long fast corners.

• Less weight transfer at front of car.
• Use in high grip conditions to avoid traction rolling.
• Use on tracks with quick direction changes (chicanes).

Hi,

this message is very useful, I wish to receive more information like this in order to understand better what I can do on the 416we set-up in a good manner. Otherwise I changed everything without knowing the effect.

I am asking all of you to integrated more information on the Artwork's topic.

Artwork, Do you have any other suggetions, please?

thanks
