As I found out the hard way when running a link car on asphalt (or any surface) make sure your starting out with new tires. Do NOT use tires that you may have had from last season. They just don't seem to work and you keep chasing a car that doesn't handle.

That's odd because I always found my link car FAR EASIER to set up for asphalt because I could tune the roll-rate and dampening, and the fore and aft rate and dampening, independently. T-bar cars always seem to be about compromising, because your whole suspension revolves around that hunk of fiberglass. Link cars are more sensitive to changes in shock oil, and spring rate than t-bar cars, so I guess for some that may be difficult.
