This is my story. Local track closed. Go hour east. That track is a low bite track as I hear people say. I was going up on race days doing ok. Dont know how to tune. Three four races in notice heavy tire wear on inside of both rear tire. Reading this thread thinking move link for more camber gain. Couple tries and tire wear starts moving across tire. I now have more even tire wear and better lap times. I do have to say there was also some shock work but that tire wear thing was important for me to see. Then go to a different track hour north. High bite as i hear people say. Guys are smoking fast cars holding turns like I never seen before. This is gonna be great. Not so much. My truck was terrible. Remember I dont know how to tune. My truck was terrible. I didn't know what to do. I had the tire. Couple more laps. Try couple little things. I just can't turn in drive out have enough together to clear next jump. I didn't know a car could handle so bad. So pack that up. Cry like baby all way home. Later that night hating my choosing hobby, I see this bad tire wear on out side of both rear tires. Well now I know it all(no not really just then I thought I was). Put a plan to together along with reading this thread to get less camber gain. More tire wear back across tire. I went back with big link adjustments minor shock work just moved them around, same oil same spring. Truck was better. Still no a main finish but can drive it. Tire wear has been more even across tire. I still struggle with the north track. Jumps are big speeds are fast. Lot of people in each class.
