ok kool ill try lowerin the rear a bit, would you recomend the roll stop in the rear? The car isnt as much grip rolling as in sudenly fliping over for no reson mid corner, i would put it down to the track but im the only one doing it. I still managed to win the b final by 8 laps tho so it aint all bad

I would stay away from the rollstops til you solve the traction rolling issue. As many have said-tire selection is your biggest and best tuning aid so exhaust those possibilities first. Now-a-days its not uncommon for me and others to change tires mid-race day as traction comes up. Seems like a lot to do-but its really not. And i chnage tires to avoid traction rollls at beginning of race.

Less negative camber if the inside is wearing.
If your running .020" front springs, usually about -.5 to -1* camber will get even tire wear.

take care

Such as "High downforce" to "low downforce", or high steering/low steering.....

Looked through about 50 pages and can't find any such info....


Guess that was a no?;)
